Everyone needs a moment of relaxation, especially if you're about to take on the most important elected office in the world. President-elect Barack Obama was spotted playing a round of golf in Hawaii over the weekend with quite an entourage keeping watch. He's in town with his family for the holidays like they do every year and found time to hit the links before he takes office in January. Never straying too far from work, his hotly contended and headline making BlackBerry was strapped to his belt as usual. After admitting that he's "not that good" at golf, Obama enjoyed a lunch of Spam sushi. President Bush gave up golf out of respect for our soldiers, so we'll see if Obama comes under fire for his hobby. Until then, enjoy some shots of Barack Obama hitting the links in his cargo shorts.

Figures he'd be a cheater (swinging lefty).
1that should be a nice christmas down there, good food, good views.
2Sexy.
3I have such a crush on him. And seeing him swing that golf club... wow. HOT!
4It's interesting that so many people refer to as "Barack" and not Obama.
5why steph, thats his name. I say GW, not Bush sometimes.
6I think people today feel more casual about those things, like they know the president. I never use GW always President Bush maybe Bush but never his first name. I just don't feel right. Even with Obama, I use BO or his last name until he is officially president he is president elect.
7If I have met him, does that count for me to use GW? I got a birthday card from him once.
8Yeah, I don't know. I got a card from my CEO and his senator wife but I wouldn't call her by her first name even though I call her husband by his.
9lol Molly, don't ever refer to it as Spam sushi, the locals would laugh you right off the island if you do so. It's Spam Musabi
10black velveteen and danielle this is for you http://www.tmz.com/2008/12/22/barack-hard-abs/#comments
11Damn south paws.... him, reagan, gh Bush and Clinton!!! It must be a requirement for the presidency now... lol
12I am a little disturbed by that picture. Are they stalking him?
13I don't think so bella, he was a public course so anyone can be there.
14He's such a dork sometimes. I like that.
15He sucks at golf and Jude you should see the shoes he had on with a loser matching cell phone clip. Such a feakin dork.
16But really, I'm tryna see Chellie, Malia and Sasha.
17I hate golf and love men who just hack around at the game.
18Then you must at least like me Steph. I think I'd have to practice a few more years to be considered a hacker...

20he eats spam? eewww... but i guess thats a hawaiian thing?
21Spam Musubi is really good!
I watched that "Bizarre Foods" show with Andrew Zimmern once, and he HATES Spam. Which is funny to me since he eats some seriously nasty stuff.
22Spam and eggs make a good breakfast.
23My golf game leaves a lot to be desired. Par 3 holes have a secret desire to humiliate me.
But I'd go knocks some balls around with Barack.
24I have a crush on him... I admit it. But it's because he loves Michelle so much. And he adores his kids. Why is that so rare?
And I've never seen any man golf in cargos... but he's not a typical man is he? Sexy thang.
25I kill at mini golf.
26pinkprincess1101, thank you for that delicious eye candy link!! Wow, I'd never would have thought he was rollin' like that
27Oh man...the comments on that TMZ link are priceless.
28Spam is yummy, and spam musubi? amazing.
29Spam Musubi is pretty damn good.
30There was a time a youngin that I ate SPAM. Fried SPAM sandwiches, SPAM and Eggs, Spam and Potatoes.
31I'd post a link to the Monty Python Spam song video, but it would just get flagged so...
SPAM SPAM SPAM SPAM, SPAM SPAM SPAM SPAM 
32My dad grew up on Spam, and until it got expensive, we ate it almost every Sat morning. It's ok raw, but I always thought it was disgusting pan fried.
