The other guy is a pal of Obama’s.
Do you mean Tiger? I'm not sure what to think there. I don't think Tiger is liberal and I don't think he would support Obama's policies. But, I do think Tiger (due to his respect for his fathers' interests in promoting the advancement of blacks) might want to show "support" for Obama.
Last week, news agencies were rampant with the rumor that Obama and Tiger would play a round of golf together. Didn't happen. Where is the explanation? My thought - Obama's minions started the rumor, hoping that Tiger would jump on board. It would be easy to do, since Tiger would be in NJ and Obama in Martha's Vinyard. But, Tiger didn't take the bait. He is one sharp cookie!
