In an interview with Politico magazine and Yahoo News, Bush also said he gave up golf in 2003 out of respect for U.S. soldiers killed in the war, which has now lasted more than five years.

"I didn't want some mom whose son may have recently died to see the commander in chief playing golf," he said. "I feel I owe it to the families to be in solidarity as best as I can with them. And I think playing golf during a war just sends the wrong signal."

I saw this at the huffpo and I thought one of the commentators over there made a really good point. As stupid as this sounds, the fact remains that if bush gave up golfing as his "war sacrifice" he's sacrificed more than 99 percent of the war supporters and war cheerleaders in this country.

Think about that.
