Obama's White House: Skirts v. Skins and the 23 games of golf since assuming office.

Obama hoops Did you hear the latest on dit from the NY Slimes about life in the Obama White House?

It seems that the Obama girls are miffed because Obama and his home boys won't let them play sports with them. Pout!

<--- Can half white boys jump?

Is the White House like a Frat House?

The suspicion flared in recent weeks — and not for the first time — after President Obama was criticized by women’s advocates and liberal bloggers for hosting a high-level basketball game with no female players.


And you wouldn't be finding any skirts on the links with President Obama in his previous 23 games of golf, either.

Until today, that is.

From Politico:

If it’s Sunday, expect to find Obama golfing at Fort Belvoir.

This week, though, his foursome includes Melody Barnes, President Obama’s chief domestic policy advisor -- and the first woman who’s played golf with Obama during his 24 trips to the links since taking office.

Melody barnes hits the links Fore! --->

Barnes, wearing a baseball cap, dark long sleeve shirt and beige pants, joined Obama the same day that the New York Times is running a front page story, Man’s World at White House? No Harm, No Foul, Aides Say, the latest in a round of similarly stories triggered by a high-profile, all-male basketball game the president played in earlier this month.

Deputy Press Secretary Bill Burton initially told pool reporter Lynn Sweet it was “not true” that Barnes was the first woman to golf with Obama, but when the Chicago Sun-Times reporter emailed back to ask who the others were, Burton replied: “I was wrong about this - all apologies. He golfed with women on the campaign trail but not until Melody this year. Sorry to all the people who were unwittingly misled by what I gave the pooler.”

Tell me. Are there any grown ups in the Obama administration? If so, where are they?
