It's not that he's a golf addict, it's just that . . . .
The president said he loves his life in the White House but doesn't enjoy some of the ways of Washington, such as the "kabuki dance" among political partisans before serious policy discussions begin. He also regrets his loss of personal privacy.

"I just miss - I miss being anonymous," he said at the meeting in the White House. "I miss Saturday morning, rolling out of bed, not shaving, getting into my car with my girls, driving to the supermarket, squeezing the fruit, getting my car washed, taking walks. I can't take a walk."

Living life in the bubble that is the POTUS has it's perks, and disadvantages.
 
Yeah, I never really think how different life is for some people.... And he wasn't born royalty or anything, he just became president. I can't believe some people are born in that life and know no different.
 
another reason he can't go for a walk in a park is cuz some chicago soccer mom is liable to approach him and ask---

mr president, where is the leadership coming out of the white house on the economy and our current budget mess?

why didn't you even propose a budget for this year, putting us within hours of a govt shutdown?

why hasn't the senate produced a blueprint in this congress?

why does your 2012 proposal neglect to address the entitlements that are careening us over the cliff?

why did you wait til practically new years eve to settle on this years tax rate?

our states are bankrupt, pensions and medicaid are killing em, where are you?

gas and food prices are untenable, i can't get to work, and little suzie here is sick of mac and cheese and top ramen
