My 400pm local ABC News just broke in with a report that Obama just left the golf course immediately upon hearing that an ambulance has been sent to the home they are renting in Hawaii ~ the anchor said that's all the info that has been released, but there will be further updates as more news becomes available ~

Obama leaves golf course abruptly, speeds home

Associated Press

KAILUA, Hawaii - President Barack Obama has abruptly ended a round of golf and sped toward his family's vacation home for what is being described as a "personal matter." An ambulance was seen speeding toward their compound.

White House aides said the speedy departure and return to the president's home was not a matter of national security or because of a threat to Obama's safety.

Obama was playing golf when reporters who travel with him were quickly assembled for a return to the first family's neighborhood.

Journalists saw an ambulance speed past with its lights on, heading toward the end of Obama's street. The ambulance would have passed through a security checkpoint at the end of the street.

An emergency in Hawaii (UPDATE)

The latest pool report:

Quote:

The President returned in a very high speed and dramatic motorcade to his vacation home. The pool bus got dropped at one stage. Now holding just inside secured residential zone on the bus. An ambulance just swept by with flashing lights. No further details available.

No explanation, aside from that it's a personal matter, not one of national or presidential security.

UPDATE: CNN reports that the incident was merely a "minor injury" to a family friend. The Times says it was Eric Whitaker's son, who needed stitches.

Man...what a cad Obama is. He returned to the course, when he should have been at the hospital consoling his friend over his sons massive, life-threatening wounds.....close to how Fox will spin it?? Don't forget the parity of the way treatment was dispersed vs Obama-care would leave the child to bleed to death.

Foul mood today...first day back after a week-off...crap hit the fan...peoples home up the street caught fire, have three dogs so I figure to do a favor and feed them while their gone....NOOooo, they feed and water them, sure they do. They can now cause the little sh*t about bit me. Today wasn't worth the effort.Image

Ambulance with flashing lights for a minor injury needing stitches? Surely it was a somewhat bigger injury than that if an ambulance was needed and had to race off with flashing lights and required rushing home from the golf course. Not sure why they can't give more details...whatever it is can't be nearly as bad as the VP shooting someone in the face with a shotgun. [img]/domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/wink.gif[/img]
