Americans can sleep soundly in their specially strengthened beds tonight due to the announcement by The White House that George Bush has given up golf to focus on being the president.
The announcement was greeted with shock coming only 7 years and 10 months into his 8 year Presidency.
The president was quoted as saying 'I am now prepared to sacrifice my quite impressive handicap to help lead the nation through these difficult times caused by Democratic insurgents.'
Allegations that Mr Bush has suffered a back injury that prevents him playing golf are yet to be proven due to an uninterested media.
