Once again the libs (commies in the case of Uncle Joe) fail to see the point or chose to muddy the waters because they know they are wrong. The point is the bias in the media...hence the thread title.
They know if an R did like BO, they would be going berserk as would the MSM. HYPOCRISY!

You should have paid more time to detail during the learning of comprehension skills in English class.
The "lib media" ( whatever that is ) has become "the media".
So if one counter-example can be produced, you are wrong.
Unfortunately for you, many of these can be produced.
This is a variation of a phenomenon known as the Bush Derangement Syndrome
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bush_Derangement_Syndrome
which is the Obama Derangement Syndrome
"...Washington Times' Miller Complained That "Obama Golfs While Troops Hunt Osama Bin Laden." In a May 2 Washington Times column, senior opinions editor Emily Miller complained that "[w]hile the president was playing golf, the highly-trained U.S. special forces were en route to bin Laden's fortified compound." From The Washington Times:

In a May 2 Washington Times column, senior opinions editor Emily Miller complained that "[w]hile the president was playing golf, the highly-trained U.S. special forces were en route to bin Laden's fortified compound." From The Washington Times:
Capturing Sept. 11 terrorist mastermind Osama bin Laden has been the nation's top national-security priority for 10 years, but carrying out the final kill didn't stop President Obama from playing golf on Sunday. In a tiny concession to his job requirements as commander in chief, Mr. Obama cut his golf game short by nine holes in order to get back to the White House to monitor the final moments as Navy SEALs killed bin Laden in Pakistan.
[...]
While the president was playing golf, the highly-trained U.S. special forces were en route to bin Laden's fortified compound. "The high walls, security features, suburban location and proximity to Islamabad made this an especially dangerous operation," said a senior administration official after the killing. "The men who executed this mission accepted this risk, practiced to minimize those risks and understood the importance of the target to the national security of the United States."
[...]
Talking points aside, the suddenly religious president started his Sunday morning as he usually does: skipping church to go hit the golf links. [The Washington Times, 5/2/11, via Media Matters]

Your link does not work
Also, your numbers are wrong
What kind of golfer was President Eisenhower?
Ike took up the game of golf at the age of 37 and become a fanatic of
the game. He used golf as an escape from his Presidential
responsibilities and was said to have played over 800 rounds of golf
during his 8 year term as President.
Eisenhower was a intense competitor and practiced continually developing
a quality short game and a great sense of course management. Ike had a
slice that he played because of a limited hip turn and was said to be a
impatient and indifferent on the putting green..<br>
President Eisenhower had a handicap of 14 - 18 and was said to only break 80 three times in his life.

Written as if any republican or right-wing christian nutjob has never been caught with prostitutes
"..More business' from GOP
Too bad for Watson and others like him that Denver didn't land the GOP convention instead, said Carol Leigh, a San Francisco prostitute "over 50" who has traveled to previous Democratic conventions in Los Angeles and Atlanta.
"It would be a lot better for the sex workers if it was the Republican convention," she said.
"We get a lot more business. I don't know if they're just frustrated because of the family values agenda," she said.
When the Republican convention was held in New York in 2004, some sex workers offered limited-time discounts, according to New York Magazine, which ran a feature story titled "The Girls in Their Summer Hot Pants."
Officer Ana Aguirre, a spokeswoman for the Los Angeles police, which hosted the DNC in 2000, said there's "definitely a spike" in prostitution during large events like political conventions.
In Denver, said police spokesman Sonny Jackson, "We're preparing to handle a variety of issues that may come up."
Even though they attract a lot of people, political conventions aren't the most profitable for the men and women in the world's oldest profession, Leigh said.
"Computer conventions can be lucrative," she said. "There's a lot of nerds that don't get out much."
But money is money, and the Democrats are expected to inject millions of dollars into the metro area when they flock into town.
"We're preparing to be busy for that convention," said Tracy, a manager for Bare Assets, a Denver-based adult entertainment agency that does everything "from singing telegrams to novelty acts to topless to nude."
Tracy declined to give her last name or say whether the agency had any DNC-related bookings.

The GOP Prez was also taking months off and set records for vacation time while trying to find a way to start a 2nd war since the first one was not the one he wanted...and then screwing both up.

Come on pockets...can't you admit if Bush did like your Messiah, you would be beside yourself with anger, as would the MSM and most libs everywhere? Can't you admit you are a hypocrite?
You and yours critized Bush for all sorts of stupid and irrelevant things. If W golfed EVERY weekend, took extravagant vacations, and used AF ONE as his personal taxi service, you would be OUTRAGED!!! I say OUTRAGED!!!
But....alls cool cause a D is POTUS.
