Would Obama have the audacity to apply his logic to a professional athlete?

Quote from Ricter:
Tiger Woods is a creation of his father. That's not to say he couldn't have quit practicing golf, but by the time he was old enough to reason about such things he'd already been golfing for years!
So that somehow changes the fact that he was willing to work twice as hard as everyone else on tour to get to where he was?
There are a lot of children whose parents push them when they are young who dont amount to shit, because they arent willing to do what Tiger was....
Tiger basically revolutionized golf, look at the body type of most pro golfers who are older than Tiger woods, and then the average body type of the pro golfers younger than tiger woods
Weight training was non existent in Golf before Tiger, now days you look at Golfers and you dont see guys like John Daly making it big anymore, because they all know they have to put in the extra time at the gym, just to gain that 1-2 extra strokes over a 4 day tournament, so that they can win on todays PGA tour..... Tiger elevated everyones play because he was willing to do that, and he got to the top of the sport because he was willing to put in the extra time both at the gym and on the course....
So when Obama dismisses that, and plays it off as if its luck and says "I know lots of people who work hard" he is full of shit, no one on the PGA tour works as hard as he does...
Too funny
Romney To Olympians: âYou Didnât Get Here Solely On Your Ownâ
ROMNEY: You Olympians, however, know you didnât get here solely on your own power. For most of you, loving parents, sisters or brothers, encouraged your hopes, coaches guided, communities built venues in order to organize competitions. All Olympians stand on the shoulders of those who lifted them. Weâve already cheered the Olympians, letâs also cheer the parents, coaches, and communities.
Just as Obama said if you read it all.

LOL !!!
LOL, yeah because saying you should thank your parents for supporting you is almost the same as implying that people dont become successful based on hard work or intelligence, but because of the government......
Id imagine this Statement from Romney will get more coverage than Obamas initial statement.......The left wing media is a joke....

The parents helped, the infrastructure helped. Are we done yet?Quote from Max E. Pad:

Re the "left wing" media, maybe the Koch brothers should be buying it.
Quote from Max E. Pad:
i actually thought that this could be a decent thread topic and that someone might feel like talking about this, but now this thread is already derailed..... He really is the true definition of an asshole....
Unfortunately, Ricter is almost as bad.
Seriously, trying to argue against Tiger Woods or MJ's success as a case of hard work and determination is obscene.
But what do you expect from these lefties. Do any of you guys think these guys ever played competitive sports?

Now an assumption that those who are not conservative never played sports? And I guess righties never went to college at all, as per Santorum, a good thing I guess. Debate gone.
Quote from mrbill:
Nice dodge, anything but admit that righties took PBO comments out of context in a desperate attempt to win some percentage points in a losing race.
Ok Mr(insert handle here), why dont you show me exactly how the wonderful government played a prominent role in Tigers Golfing Success?
