A decade of deceit indeed. From 911 to Mr woods it seems that honesty is never the best policy. Its to bad that people dwell on Mr Woods infidelity. Compared to the suffering that Helicopter Ben and his buddies at AIG GM all the big banks etc. Tiger is small potatoes. People that have been cheated and lied to by the Fed the big banks and the US government will soon be out of all there benefits, used up all there savings. maxed out all available sources of revenue. Once people are faced with starvation and living on the streets look out. Tigers woes wont mean much to someone who has food and might need a coumpound to defend his family from hungry people.
Robert Surcouf, the French Corsair, in a discussion with a British officer was told,"You French fight for money, while we British fight for honour."
Surcouf replied, "Sir, a man fights for what he lacks the most."
Americans are obsessed with personal morality because that is what they "lack the most." The U.S.has the highest divorce rate in the world. That probably reflects the extent to which spouses cheat.
Tiger Woods is a great golfer. Wagner was a great composer. Einstein was history's greatest scientist. Who said we have to use any one of them for models of anything other than as athletes, composers or scientists?
If Tiger deflowered sheep in the moonlight he would still be a great golfer and the rest would be nobody's business.
