With unemployment still soaring and home foreclosures multiplying, the president’s decision to mix golf and governance on a Maryland fairway was nothing if not bad optics. Moreover, I really don’t think the camaraderie of a game of golf is going to miraculously mollify the ideological intransigence of a John Boehner. And it’s hard to believe that Mr. Obama has not seen enough Republican lies as it is.
