Yeah, Little Rory the hobbit came out in the New York Post yesterday and polished his Lefty creds:

The loser hobbit crumpled like a little girl when he got criticized by Twitter for golfing with the President.

New rule: when a Rory hobbit article gets posted, we post a picture of his ex Caroline Wozniacki, who can wear high heels now.

“Don’t go too hard on the little feller.”

Okay, I’ll go after his sleaze partner, Johnson.

The PGA has no obligation to announce the results of any failed drug tests and thus Dustin Johnson’s frequently blemished record of misdemeanours is largely unbeknownst to the majority. He’s, in fact, failed three drugs tests in his time on tour. Two of the three, in 2012 and 2014 for cocaine. Whether his addiction was the intoxicating fuel behind his vigorous swing remains unknown, however, it did result in Johnson taking an enforced six-month leave of absence from the tour, disguised as a need to resolve personal matters. Drugs like this are not a personal matter, they are a flaw in character.

During that time, he was revealed by Robert Lusetich to having slept with at least two of his tour peers wives. One, now commonly known to be with the now ex-wife of tour member Will MacKenzie. They divorced because of this. A tremendous scandal that was sacredly kept under wraps by those within golf’s tight-lipped society.

He now is hooked up with Paulina Gretsky, daughter of Wayne, and they are tossing out kids. But did you notice that Wayne travels with Dustin? Guess why.

He, obviously, can’t be trusted and his previous actions, if ever acknowledged, have been covered up as no one knows the extent of them, but it’s hardly the vehicle for the virtuous reputation on which golf has been built. He’s trash.

And you sound like a bleeding heart liberal.

Mistakes, huh? It wasn’t your wife he was screwing among the ones he did, it may not have been your area that was supported by his cocaine money, and you seem to think laws only apply to certain people, not everyone. And to further it, if it wasn’t for the media protection, he would have tarnished the sport just like Woods and his numerous mistresses when he took a vow before God not to do what he did.

So in that sense, you could call me a church lady I guess. But all I expect from the people that are supposed to be the heroes to our kids and profit hugely from a business that is there to entertain and take their parents’ money which encompasses an expected behavior our society designs and the rules of the sport reinforce, then call me wrong. I was taught that was the way our society thrives. This is why we have third world nations that don’t expect morals or legalities to get in the way and millions of people are trying to get here some dying trying.

Mistakes? Between lying to his sport, illicit sex with other golfer’s wives, illegal drug use, and lying to his fans about his commitment to the purity of a sport he uses to make his money in great numbers, how far does he have to go to qualify as trash? In my mind, he fell over that cliff a long time ago. And he has done nothing to change his lifestyle as that is why Gretzky travels with him. To keep him from screwing around on Wayne’s daughter who he continues to impregnate. Does an adult need a babysitter? He does apparently and it’s because he is a failure as a person to the extent he can’t be trusted to behave in an adult way. He doesn’t deserve admiration...just disgust. Yeah, mistakes....

Too bad Rickie choked on the closest to the pin finale, again.
