Now I get it. After more than five years into the misadventure that is the war in Iraq, President Bush says he gave up golf in 2003 as an expression of solidarity with the families of soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice in Iraq. Apparently without an iota of self-consciousness, Bush told the Politico: "I don't want some mom whose son may have recently died to see the commander in chief. I feel I owe it to families to be as - to be in solidarity as best I can with them. And I think playing golf during a war just sends the wrong signal."
