TIGER WOODS SPEECH AT THE 2009 INAUGURATION:
Tiger Woods received a special invitation to speak at the
inauguration. His invitees were stunned, shocked when he did not
deliver the message they expected. A brief read and you will
understand why the media swept Woods' remarks under the rug with no
further ado and why the liberal left of our American society was again
displeased with Tiger.
His speech was entitled:
"You'll Never Walk Alone"
[text is word-for-word as posted on Tiger's web site]
"I grew up in a military family - and my role models in life were my
Mom and Dad, Lt. Colonel Earl Woods. My dad was a Special Forces
operator and many nights friends would visit our home. They
represented every branch of the service, and every rank.
In my Dad, and in those guests, I saw first hand the dedication and
commitment of those who serve. They come from every walk of life; from
every part of our country. Time and again, across generations, they
have defended our safety in the dark of night and far from home.
Each day -- and particularly on this historic day -- we honor the men
and women in uniform who serve our country and protect our freedom.
They travel to the dangerous corners of the world, and we must
remember that for every person who is in uniform, there are families
who wait for them to come home safely.
I am honored that the military is such an important part, not just of
my personal life, but of my professional one as well. The golf
tournament we do each year here in Washington is a testament to those
unsung heroes.
I am the son of a man who dedicated his life to his country, family
and the military, and I am a better person for it.
In the summer of 1864, Abraham Lincoln, the man at whose memorial we
stand, spoke to the 164th Ohio Regiment and said: 'I am greatly
obliged to you, and to all who have come forward at the call of their
country.'
Just as they have stood tall for our country - we must always stand by
and support the men and women in uniform and their families.
Thank you, and it is now my pleasure to introduce the US Naval Glee Club ...."

Tiger Woods' 2-minute, 5-second tribute to the our nation's military
was delivered January 18th at the Inaugural Celebration in Washington ,
DC! He had been subjected to intense pressure to attend and offer
remarks. Especially so by liberals who have demeaned and
criticized him for a decade for not joining their ranks. Yet, at
the Lincoln Memorial, instead of paying homage to Barack Obama, Tiger
paid tribute to our soldiers. Not once did Tiger mention Obama,
the inauguration or the new administration. He had to understand
expressing his love for America and appreciation for our military men
and women would disappoint the national newsmedia and the liberal
left. But Tiger is his own man; his father taught him to be his
own man.
Somewhere over that cold, gray Washington sky, Colonel Earl Woods was
smiling down on his beloved son. And there will be one more crying
hug waiting for Tiger when the time comes he passes through heavan's
gates into God's arms.

What? You did not previously know what Tiger said? You did not
see a video clip of him speaking on a national television network, you
did not see a photo of Tiger at the Lincoln Memorial offering his
remarks, you did not read a story in the NY Times? His
appearance at the Inaugural Celebration had been widely hailed and
promoted in advance by the Obama inaugural organizers .. . . yet
January 18 when he came and spoke . . .
Oh, well.
WELL If you are as tired of this liberal media reporting as I am, change the channel, and pass this one on. I am!
