This is why I read Mr. Sowell’s books.
Right on!
I am sick to death of this “age of apologies.”
“Back in the 1960s, when so many foolish ideas flourished simply because they were new, a New York Times columnist tried to make the case that we were all somehow responsible for the assassination of John F. Kennedy.”
Excellent illustration of the stupidity of liberals.
We disagree, some say. Liberals are actually very intelligent. They go to Harvard, and they go to Yale!
I say they’re stupid.
Dr. Sowell does cut to the chase, doesn’t he? I know he;s up in years, but we need him for as long as humanly possible!
That is one fine essay. I’d like to frame it. Many thanks.
The other morning when Woods apologized on TV the wife looked at me and said, what in the devil is he doing apologizing on TV, he needs to apologize to his wife.
She and Dr. Sowell are exactly right and I’m going to tell her so. :-)
“I am very judgmental about all sorts of things, including Tiger Woods’ bad behavior.”
You and Tom Watson. Don’t get him started on Tiger’s BS on the course...he’s his #1 critic and has been for a long time. Watson IS the essence of the “Gentleman Golfer” as was his Dad.
Common sense - something that can’t be taught.
A great read. Thanks.
No one can say it better than that.
The lack of personal responsibility in the “60’s generation” has lead to the financial meltdown today. ME ME ME
....he needs to get back to work.
The PGA needs him working in order to survive in the manner in which they are accustomed. The help, the caddies, the grounds keepers, and all other supportive PGA workers need Tiger to get his butt back on the course.
Instead Tiger is knuckling under to the press and other outsiders who have no business in his business.
Tiger....if by some miracle you read this....
...man up...tell people to f---- off...and get your ass back to work.
“The lack of personal responsibility in the “60’s generation” has lead to the financial meltdown today. ME ME ME”
Hahahahaha...”if it feels good, do it” sure left us in the bread lines, eh?
Tom is the master of the human condition, and the root causes of its failures.
LOL. On that same morning, my husband looked up from his book, reached for the remote and “click.” He said, “WHAT THE #@#*(*&^%$#@%*&^%%#&*&^%$#@$^&(**^%$$@ “
You know, of the "I'm sorry you're upset" variety.
“Tiger Woods doesn’t owe me an apology.”
Thank God it’s over. Having to sit in front of the TV week after nauseating week, watching in disbelief as Tiger Woods is dragged out again and again to grovel before some crowd of stupid reporters, somebody has finally said it. Thank you Professor Sowell! Now I can stop throwing up all over my TV dinner.
Me too.
