the reason the GOP keeps losing is because of their infatuation with losing petty arguments....the populace is tired of your whining about inconsequential detritus.

It's clear, the presidency and our great game have quite a thing going. And it seems the golf bug is bipartisan.

Many people fondly recall Eisenhower and his utter passion for the game. During his presidency, he played some 210 rounds at Augusta National, the home of the Masters, many with his good friend Arnold Palmer. Such was his fervor for the game, he even had a putting green installed on the White House lawn.

But Ike didn't play the most golf among our presidents, nor was he the best.

The honor for the most golf played goes to Woodrow Wilson. It's said that he played at least a few holes each day -- even in the snow -- reportedly logging more than 1,000 rounds in his two terms. Maybe that's why the League of Nations failed.
