Sometimes I think that many libertarians are just Liberals like like to hide out in the free market side of things. Like Radley.

Thus they are in a poor mood and highly unlikely to tip well. Completely unconnected to the study. What would have been interesting is if they had ignored the non-green sample set and just looked at the green sample set to see if their was any affiliation between leftists vs libertarian/the few repubs who went green and those who cheated constantly.

I never would have guessed this would happen ever since he burst onto the scene a few years ago. Limbaugh and Beck are douches that are cashing in. Like anyone, they have say some things that have merit, but overall they are trash (like most others). Tiger can screw all of the women he wants, it's between him and his family/friends and none of our damn business. Shocker about Obama continuing the same practices as his predecessors!

Groupies anyone? Who in the world does not know who Tiger Woods is, anyway? And, maybe Tiger just does not know that his response to the "sexual predators?" is not what the majority would expect from a married man. If he wanted to get all the sex he wanted, why did he get married? If you really love your mate, I don't see the temptation as a problem. I would never cheat on my wife! Would not want to lose a good thing! I am tired of the MSM response! How much infidelity is floating around in their camp? Mostly, I see it as an invasion of, what little, privacy celebrities have. It should be between him and his wife. Why do they want to drag all of the rest of us into it, anyway? Oh, I forgot for a little bit! IT IS BIG MONEY as related to RATINGS!

Tiger Woods is half-Thai, quarter-black, quarter-white.

He is as black as he is white.

He is more Asian than anything.
