Perfect timing.

I work a PT job with all blacks (only white guy). 2 ladies have been( one of them the sup) been joking about Tiger. I bring up the mans desire about having something "strange" theory . They agree with the men are all pigs speil and then I throw the womans desire for a "bad boy". They then they say oh yea, guys who are players, truckdrivers and ride motorcycles and then they laugh because I pawn'd them.

Race is never involved in the conversation.

Oh Criminy - now we have cross-dressers in this mess?

I heard Rush’s commentary, wow was it on the mark.

I like how Rush implied, you need co-conspirators to perpetuate the illusion (fraud). That in Obama's case it could not happen without the media.

I agree, when people start to lose control there's usually an increased desperation to hold on.

Are they looking at their poll numbers?

The big difference between Tiger and Obama, as the article points out near the end, is that Tiger has an obvious natural talent to fall back on if he can refocus in the midst of the maelstrom around him. Obama has proven no ability and no talent, unless you call teleprompter reading a talent, and therefore will have nothing to fall back on when the masses finally turn on him.

Unfortunately, the country will wind up being the focus of his destructive anger once that happens.

I'm finding all this unfolding around Tiger very revealing. A few years back, a friend-of-a-friend of the family, who worked for Tiger, quit after becoming disillusioned with having to deal with the "Black Mafia" surrounding him. I had never viewed Woods as a Black Mafia sort of guy (honestly never followed him very closely), but seems like all kinds of revelations are now coming out in the media.

Whatever happens, I will continue to appreciate Tiger's athletic talent and his respect for our military. But I'll never again hold him up as a role model of an exceptional person.

So what? Obama and the Libs are carefully and viciously destroying America. They don’t give a damn about public perception. Unlike Woods, people can’t fire Obama for another three years.

“I dunno. If Obama ever cheated on Michelle, I figure she’d go after him with something more than a 9-iron.”

As a club builder my choice would be a 64 degree SW, shortest shaft for best control and most weight in the clubhead.

Amazing how you can hit a club like that, go over trees, drop it softly on a green and punch out of a sandtrap.

Since the limit is 14 clubs and pros hit a five iron 200 yards with spin they dropped the lower # irons and carry more wedges. They still try to stay close but not on top of a green for their second shot on a par four.

A very astute observation.

Can the wife sue the MSM PRESS as a accomplice to adultery?

I think Elin should sue every one of the women for "alienation of affection" even if she might not win in Court. It would brand the women as the Trashy Pond Scum they are for having a sexual relationship with a married man. It takes TWO to tangle. Tiger's at fault, but the women are more at fault than he is. His hormones, perhaps, but their HATEFULNESS towards Elin, Sam and Charlie.

These things we see happening are an inkling what lies ahead for Obozo and the Democratic Majority. They are all headed for a catastrophic fall and what is happening to Woods is mild in comparison of what is going to happen to them.

Tiger is a good golfer but they made him into a messiah like you know who.

Yabut, Frantzie, that Son of a Foreigner who lives in the White House at the moment was never a good anything.

Stacks, he’ll need to win just to pay off the Swede.... (and Obama-like, to hide the REAL story.)

Trashy Pond Scum

Yo, H.O., nobody forced the Tiger to go wading in their pond.

Thanks, PM! Didn’t know that Rush was discussing this on his show today as well.

Well, yes, but at least right now we still have the illusion that our votes will matter in 2010. We may all be in for an eye-opening election season, however.

Tiger Woods is (or rather was) a brand name. Much like Glen Beck, Rush Limbaugh, and many others.

The difference is that Tiger isn’t what his branding claimed him to be.

I'm not so sure. He's the one who made (and so clearly broke) a vow. They just saw the opportunity and went along for the ride, so to speak. The women are scummy, to be sure, but I find the vow-breaker far more culpable.

My admiration for Tiger is undiminished. He messed up, for sure. So what’s that to us? He’ll learn from his mistakes and face up to the consequences. Cheating on your wife is very wrong but can you imagine the pressure and temptations he’s faced?

Here is a reason to love Tiger. Have you seen the speech he gave at Obama’s inauguration:
