Tiger Woods has consistently pissed-off the Left by not taking a stand for minority issues or most other political matters. I have commented on this before. Here is what he says about the war on his website:

I have great respect for the men and women fighting overseas to protect our way of life in Iraq and other parts of the world. As the son of an Army officer, I understand the strength, courage and discipline required to successfully carry out their missions in hostile environments and feel tremendous pride they are representing us.

Obviously, no one likes war. Our Congress and President tried hard to avoid the use of force, but ultimately decided it was the best course of action. I like the assertiveness shown by President Bush and think we owe it to our political and military leaders, along with our brave soldiers to be as supportive as possible during these difficult and trying times. I just wanted to take this opportunity to let our forces know that I am thinking about you and wishing you and your families the best
.

Not particularly political, with the exception of agreeing with Bush on the ultimate decision, but supportive of our troops and wishing them well. This guy is not only an incredible athlete whom I think will mean more to his sport than Michael Jordan, but an honest straight-forward guy who has the juevos to put something on his site without fanfare.

In other news, Martha (I was really wronged by a man at some point in my life) Burk equates the war with women not being allowed into a private golf club.

"It's appalling that the women who are willing to lay down their lives for democratic ideals should be shut out of this club."

Actually Martha, I think they have more important things on their minds right now.
