And the crowd goes wild… only problem is, the “crowd” was so-called journalists.
Then again, there’s a reason so many Americans refer to news agencies as the Obama-adoring media.
The only thing missing was the squealing you’d expect from a pack of prepubescent school girls after President Barack Obama — in the midst of a 16-day Christmas vacation in Hawaii — sank a 40-foot putt on the golf course Tuesday.
A day after six U.S. troops were killed in Afghanistan by a suicide bomb attack.

ABC News posted a video of their hero’s feat on social media and drew plenty of well deserved scorn, particularly in the immediate aftermath of the loss in Afghanistan.
Here’s a sampling of responses from Twitter:
@ABCPolitics @POTUS “Squeeeeeeeeeeee!”

Yet, people say he’s good for nothing. 7 years of taxpayer funded golf practice is clearly paying off. So there’s that. @ABCPolitics @POTUS
