Tiger speaks at Inauguration

Tiga Tiga Tiga Woods Y'all!

A hero on so many levels, he took the stage yesterday during the "We are One" concert outside the Lincoln Memorial, alongside several other notable figures for Barack Obama's long-awaited Inauguration.

Associated Press: Woods has been as apolitical as they come, keeping his views firmly to himself during his rise to become the world's top golfer. It was only after Obama's election in November that Woods expressed his excitement over "a person of color in the White House."

"I am the son of a man who dedicated his life to his country, family and the military, and I'm a better person for it," Woods said referring to his late father, Earl Woods, who did two tours during the Vietnam War with the U.S. Army Special Forces, "always stand by and support the men and women in uniform and their families."

I wonder if Barack and Tiger had some time to tee-it-up at Congresssional Country Club, where Tiger hosts the AT& T National, a new PGA Tour event in July in Bethesda Maryland, just outside of DC? .....Wouldn't it be fun to play in a threesome with Tiger and Barack? Two of my all time faves!

Golfin' Obama!

I was on youtube.com, just "youtoobing" random things - because when you are single and in your 20's, that is what you do these days... and I find Obama (aka "HOT LEFTY") golfing in Honolulu!~Woot Woot! Just when I thought he was too good to be true, he reassures me that he is! Now if he'll only reconsider higher-taxes for the small-business:)... but that's a whole new blog sweetie!

Click here to see: Obama Golfing
About.com's Brent Kelly writes these Golfing Tidbits:

... In June, after clinching the Democratic presidential nomination, Obama played golf in the Chicago area with a few campaign aides.

"They went to a golf course, and they swung golf clubs," campaign spokesman Robert Gibbs said on MSNBC's Morning Joe. "But I don't think it was real pretty."

Of the past 17 United States presidents, USA Today says, 14 were golfers. Only Herbert Hoover, Jimmy Carter and Harry Truman were not golfers. Two bad presidents and one great one.

I will leave you on this note...
