here's another little thing that doesn't add up.................
(Daily Mail) — Barack Obama has spoken about how he has failed to spend enough time with his daughters, despite pledging to learn from his father who left him when he was two years old.
The President revealed how he regrets how his work has stopped him spending more time with his daughters Malia, 12, and Sasha, 10, as they grow up.
Mr Obama told how growing up without a dad made him want to be the best parent he could, but admitted that he had not been a ‘perfect dad’.
‘When Malia and Sasha were younger, work kept me away from home more than it should have,’ he wrote in an article about parenting for People magazine.
‘At times the burden of raising our two daughters has fallen too heavily on Michelle.
‘During the campaign, not a day went by that I didn’t wish I could spend more time with the family I love more than anything else in the world.’
Mr Obama said he regretted not being present because of his own experiences in his troubled childhood.
And yet on Sunday he left a family outing at Camp David to play his 72th round of golf since taking office.
