How low Tiger has sunk. Obama is the only guy left he can beat at golf.

Sorry to hear that. Tiger ought to be wiser than hang out with someone who detests success, hard work and achievement.

OK. Thanks. The thing is I had been waiting until the WH finally announced the golf party/team and the one they put out does not list Tiger. Mainly Black businessmen from Houston along with Astros’ owner and O’s connected-at-hip Dr. Eric Whitaker who lined up his Chicago house w/Rezko, who was at Harvard when O was, who got a $6 Million fed. grant from O for the U Chicago Hospital job he held (Moochelle had it prior), who lives next to Farrakhan, who tried to bribe Rev. Wright to be quiet, who spends every Christmas since 2008 with O, etc. who is essentially the epitomy of “The Chicago Way” the title of this article by John Fund about Whitaker and O: http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/301250/chicago-way-john-fund

I’m only wondering whether Tiger is wearing a red shirt and black pants. It’s Sunday.

Race trumps common sense every time for blacks and hispanics.

They have a lot in common in they both admire porn stars - just ones of opposite sexes.

Sad! However, I’ll bet Tiger hits a sand wedge farther than The Sissy Poseur hits a driver.

That’s because O.J. Simpson was not available due to a previous commitment.

Obama is, no doubt, ready to offer him the position of Greens czar at the taxpayers expense.

"The President is arriving at The Floridian range. Awaiting is Tiger Woods and club owner Jim Crane.

This is the same Jim Crane who paid out $8.5 million to settle an EEOC complaint?

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/feb/15/vacation-obama-lawmakers-trumps-problems-facing-na/?page=2

Fifteen years ago, a company owned by Mr. Crane, Eagle USA Airfreight, was criticized by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission for its position on hiring blacks and women of child-bearing age.

The EEOC said that Mr. Crane’s company conducted a practice of paying “female and minority employees less than white men who do similar work; did not investigate employee complaints of sexual harassment; and destroyed evidence that the company was instructed to retain as part of the two-year EEOC investigation,” according to a Houston Chronicle article from 2000.

The EEOC found that Eagle failed to promote blacks, Hispanics and women.

The agency’s report cited an accusation that Mr. Crane told his managers not to hire blacks because “once you hire blacks, you can never fire them.”

Isn’t it interesting that he consults a golf expert to help him with his golf game, yet he consults no one to help him with the economy?

ESPN has it here. The funniest quote is, "He played well today," the Astros' owner told MLB.com. "He made some good shots and had some pars, and I think he shot in the 80s."

Not from what I've seen of his stroke in the past. If he had that game, he wouldn't be afraid to show it - ever.

Yes, Baraq’s golf score, like his college transcripts, is off limits.
