President Barack Obama went across the island to golf at the Kapolei Golf Course this afternoon with a familiar foursome.
The president arrived at the course just before noon and left just before 6 p.m.
He went golfing with Darrell Harrington, and Punahou School friends Bobby Titcomb and Greg Orme. They were his partners on Monday when Obama played at the Mid Pacific Country Club in Lanikai.
It’s the third time the president has hit the links since he began his vacation Saturday.
He began his day with the usual morning workout at Marine Corps Base Hawaii.
On the way to and from the Marine base, people stopped and watched as the motorcade whizzed past.
Earlier today, Obama, Vice President Joe Biden and their wives released matching lists of their favorite holiday songs on the popular music streaming service Spotify. Topping the list for Obama and his wife, Michelle, is the instrumental version of “O Tannenbaum” by the Vince Guaraldi Trio featured in “A Charlie Brown Christmas.”
He returned to his Kailua rental a little after 6:30 p.m.

The AP really outdid itself with this report.
Hey. My fifth grade teacher told me that the newspaper is on that scholastic level.
I workout in the kitchen doing the forklift.
I’ve seen him swing the club, not pretty. Wonder what he shoots
and if he keeps an honest score?
No one can beat him, even golf rules don’t apply.
“Obama’s RULES”…kicking balls is equal to mulligans…and then some.
Have you see Ben Cayetano’s swing?
Probably shoots in the sixties…. On the front nine.
Let’s hope a President does better at leading our country, than playing a round of golf.
He should be back in Washington giving tips to Hillary on how to become a President.
Think HRO is right up there with BHO when it comes to ….ummm…bending the truth…some would rather say spinning the truth.
Whatever it takes to win the election. LOL
Oh? I thought the Trump Boy was going give us some pointers on how to lie?
My dogs got a great view of him apparently as the rest of us weren’t home.
So just how did we transport our President to Kapolei without him driving into the war-like conditions of the rail’s construction site?
He walked on the water.
Good one, sarge.
LOLLLLLLLLLLLLL ^5
Then, he went to sleep. Now, the press can sleep in their cars waiting.
Talk about lapdogs.
Judging from those four photos above, even the photographer can’t very close to the President?
Any of you sycophants dutifully hiding behind the barricades think about shouting to him requesting a comment on the 6 Americans killed in Afghanistan?
MSNBC reported it yet? That’s the only he’ll know about it.
It seems as though he goes out of his way to disrupt the lives of the ordinary people living on this island?
As former golfer, there is no way it is going to happen, no matter the nature of his game. Duffers like me played 7 days a week come rain, wind and sprinkling of snow in Southern California. Give the Prez a break, duffers are a bull-headed bunch. Each new game is an opportunity to better your game.
He’s not a duffer like you. He’s the president and there are things occurring as we speak that needs his attention and golf is not one of them.
It doesn’t matter what anyone says about the President; he’s enjoying his vacation.
