RUSH: I want to get to this Lisa Schiffren piece in the American Thinker. It\u2019s entitled: ”Tiger, Barack, and the Law of Transitivity\u2019 — As a rule, the revelation that a married athlete (or actor, or rock star, or politician) has conducted extramarital affairs with bevy of ‘party girls\u2019 may titillate, but rarely has the power to shock.\u2019 Which was Snerdley\u2019s point when this whole thing started: ‘What\u2019s the big deal? This happens to everybody, athletes, everybody knows they do this.\u2019 That\u2019s what his point was. ‘In those realms, these things happen. Entitled men. Willing women. Deceived wives. What\u2019s new? So what is it about Tiger Woods that makes his cheating so different from the usual that ten days on, the nation is still discussing revelations of conquests, trysts, payoffs, and physical injuries inflicted by a golf club?\u2019 Why after ten days are people still fixated on this? <\/p>\n

‘Sure, there\u2019s normal prurience at work. But mostly, we are interested because Tiger Woods, who may legitimately be the best golfer ever, had been turned into an all-purpose icon: a man of personal rectitude, a lovely smile, apparent openness; a family man, with a lovely wife and two adorable babies. And of course, he was our first living embodiment of the collective hope for racial reconciliation. Who knew that the early reports of his betrayed wife Elin swinging at him with a golf club constituted literal icon-smashing?<\/p>\n

‘We are staring because we\u2019ve been had. Betrayed. We see now that the image was all a fraud. The talent was real. But the things that made the public like Tiger personally — the low-key demeanor, manners, and sweet smile of countless sports-page photos, magazine covers, political analogies, and most important, product endorsements, was an act. That would be betrayal enough. But it wasn\u2019t just Woods\u2019 act. The larger lesson here is about how much artifice — sustained, deliberate deception — goes into the construction of a public persona when there is profit to be made or power to be had. Jack Shafer, the Slate media columnist, spells out how this transpired. In the beginning, Shafer notes, Woods was your normal young, single, randy, skirt-chasing, heterosexual athlete. <\/p>\n

‘Then, almost overnight, he became a golf phenom, and … for business reasons — Buick, Nike, Gatorade, Gillette, EA Sports, and Accenture being among them — Woods decided to exfoliate from his public image all things base, carnal, and even personal. The Tiger Woods that was constructed for corporate consumption was spotless and smooth, an edgeless brand easily peddled to sheikhs and shakers. Given how desperately we want to believe in a human god, it didn\u2019t take much peddling from Team Tiger for us to accept Woods as a modern deity.\u2019 You see where this is going? You see where this is ultimately headed? It\u2019s a really good piece. <\/p>\n

‘Tiger\u2019s marketers made him a symbol of tolerance and brotherhood, and his father, Earl Woods, spoke gibberish about his son being a creature of destiny,\u2019 claimed he was going to be the next Nelson Mandela, by the way, and you gotta go to jail first for that. ‘Getting married and having children only added to Woods\u2019 marketability. I\u2019m divine and monogamous and the center of a happy nuclear family. And we ate it up. So now that the ‘real\u2019 Woods has been revealed … we\u2019re embarrassed by the gap between who we believed Woods to be and who he really is. The unusually sleazy reality, however true to our darker knowledge of human nature, is especially disappointing because of the wholesome image we\u2019ve been sold for so long. ‘Modern deity\u2019 isn\u2019t much of an overstatement. <\/p>\n

‘Even now, the same huge corporate effort that went into creating the billion-dollar nice-guy persona is hard at work trying to keep it alive — because if it dies, too many people stand to lose too much money. Think about the heroic efforts to ‘save\u2019 Woods\u2019 marriage. In addition to her prenup — which only ‘vests\u2019 after a certain amount of time, apparently the much-wronged wife will receive a huge payment — $55 million, according to some reports — to stay with him for another two years.\u2019 She\u2019s leasing herself out to him, which is ‘why she hasn\u2019t exited stage right,\u2019 although we\u2019re hearing that she has, there are reports she\u2019s moved out. <\/p>\n

This morning, and you know nothing good ever happens at 2:30 in the morning but that\u2019s especially true for Tiger Woods, because this morning between two and three, ambulances were called to his house again, and a blonde middle-aged woman was spirited away to the hospital. They got pictures of her on the stretcher being wheeled in there. Turns out it\u2019s his mother-in-law. Now, what\u2019s she doing at his house if Elin has moved out? Some of this reporting, you have to question it, but nevertheless it was real that she has a nonlife-threatening stomach ailment that they had to rush her to the hospital for, at 2:30 in the morning. Anyway, the whole thing\u2019s unraveling now. I mean people are starting to ask, will he ever play golf again? <\/p>\n

Now this is also fascinating, too. This behavior was known by everybody that knows Tiger except the public. The media knew it, my friends, I knew it. Anybody who knows anybody high up in the golf world, there\u2019s all this and more stories that have gone around about Tiger. I\u2019ve heard all this and more. I\u2019ve heard these stories for two years. But the point is the public. I\u2019m not going to tell you what the ‘more\u2019 is \u2019cause that\u2019s just rumor. This stuff was not rumor. I\u2019ll wait for the ‘more\u2019 to be confirmed by somebody else. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

<\/a>RUSH: Let me finish now with the article here from Lisa Schiffren, because she\u2019s nailed it here. The reason people are still continually focused on this Tiger Woods business is that it\u2019s an act of betrayal, that there was a hoax perpetrated here. He was presented as somebody he\u2019s not, and people knew it all along. They knew it all along, but there was money to be made on both sides of it. There is money hopefully still to be made, so they\u2019re trying to repair it so that it can remain what it was. But I think the genie\u2019s out of the bottle on this now. And where you find a hoax, what do you always have to have to perpetrate it? You have to have a compliant media, be it a global warming hoax, be it a financial crisis hoax, you have to have a compliant media going along with it. And the media in the Tiger Woods thing was also a beneficiary. I mean television ratings, golf tournaments in which he played skyrocketed. And they wanted access to him. A lot of sports media, just groupies that have a computer keyboard or camera and microphone, just groupies. They want access, want to hang around. <\/p>\n

The only way you\u2019re going to have that access is to go silent on things that you know. If you succeed and are helpful in perpetrating the false image, the hoax, then you\u2019re going to be allowed access. See, the behavior of Tiger Woods was known to everybody except the public. They\u2019re shocked and stunned, and they feel betrayed. ‘This industry-wide cover-up of Woods\u2019 cheating (and apparently his personal nastiness, arrogance, and general non-cuddly nature) is not a small, secret plot by dedicated fanatics. Rather, it is a set of interlocking self-interests manifested in sustaining the pristine image of this one sports icon to keep cash coming in. But enough about Tiger the man, who is, after all, only a golfer. Let\u2019s move on to Tiger the metaphor. Because anyone with four functioning brain cells gets that if this comprehensive a charade can be sustained for a decade as Woods and those around him amassed billions, it can happen elsewhere. It can happen right in front of our eyes. <\/p>\n

‘If I were watching the public\u2019s disgust with the newly revealed Tiger Woods from an office in the West Wing, I\u2019d be concerned. Because Barack Obama is about as completely manufactured a political character as this nation has seen. His meteoric rise, without the inconvenience of a public record or accomplishments, and the public\u2019s willing suspension of critical evaluation of his resume allowed his handlers and the media to project whatever they wanted to on his unfurrowed brow. Ironically, the parallels have nothing to do with race. The Obama campaign did explicitly attempt to borrow from the then-universal Tiger Woods appeal to allay any discomfort voters might have had with a mixed-race politician. They constructed a persona that would make the American electorate comfortable with a barely-known, first-term senator with a left wing voting record, a deliberately obscured personal and professional past, and no traditional qualifications for high office.\u2019 Look at what\u2019s happened here. No traditional qualifications, no resume. It was all covered up. And we were all told, ‘Don\u2019t worry about it, this is historic.\u2019 <\/p>\n

‘After a year in the spotlight, Barack Obama, hailed as a brilliant man and a creature of destiny who would heal us all, is himself falling rapidly to earth.\u2019 His 47% approval number is the lowest at this stage of a presidency, of any president. George W. Bush at this stage was at 86% approval. That was after 9\/11. Clinton was at 54% at this stage of his presidency. Obama is at 47% and plummeting. ‘Thankfully, his family life remains above suspicion. The flaws that were airbrushed out of the candidate photos are becoming glaringly obvious under day-to-day scrutiny of his public performance in the White House. And while it doesn\u2019t matter if another athlete is an adulterer, it matters a lot if the president is revealed to be an inexperienced, excessively ideological, and weak man who is naive about the world and uncomfortable exercising American power during a time of war. It matters if nothing in his training would have equipped the president to understand what it takes to stimulate job growth,\u2019 and I guarantee you, she\u2019s exactly right here, he has not been taught that. <\/p>\n

He\u2019s been taught that this country sucks, that this country\u2019s unfair, it\u2019s unjust and immoral. He\u2019s been taught that this country has destroyed the world by stealing all the world\u2019s resources. That\u2019s what he\u2019s been taught. That\u2019s what most people his age have been taught, particularly if they have his Ivy League pedigree, and then you add to it the Chicago thuggery and you got quite a package. He has no clue how to end an overseas conflict successfully, not even interested in it. ‘It matters that he is uninterested in the science behind global warming — and wishes to use the issue to amass power and reorder society. It matters that he has no interest in the construction of policy. Ultimately, Woods is an exceptional golfer with a character problem. Barack Obama, by contrast, is not an exceptional, or even particularly competent, leader.\u2019 I\u2019m going to add an asterisk here, because this is an ongoing dilemma. He is naive in the sense that he\u2019s ignorant. He has not been taught the right things about capitalism. That\u2019s why he doesn\u2019t like it. And so that may suffice in defining him as naive. <\/p>\n

But I don\u2019t believe for a moment that he doesn\u2019t know what he\u2019s doing. And in that sense it\u2019s not naivete that\u2019s going on here, it is pure, 100% deception. It\u2019s identical to what happened to us with Tiger Woods. We have been betrayed, we have been hoaxed. Well, I\u2019m saying ‘we\u2019 in the collective sense, I knew it all along. One of the big themes of the interview as they cut it up — I finally watched the Shatner interview last night, it was pretty good — and one of the themes was I\u2019m not a conformist, and I learned in the second grade when I spent time learning how to paste this is not for me. I hated being cooped up in a prison-like room that had windows where I could see freedom on the other side. Nonconformist, won\u2019t wear jeans, although I got a pair recently to emphasize my new svelte self with the incredible weight loss. <\/p>\n

At any rate, I knew it all along, because I know liberals. And to me, the most effective way to expose liberals is to expose liberalism, i.e., use ideology. The Republican Party right now is caught up in massaging policy differences, as though we just have a traditional ebb and flow of power here, well, you got a Democrat president and a Democrat Congress and it\u2019s their turn for a while so we\u2019ll do what we can to slow it down, stop it, or what have you. No! We\u2019ve never had anything like this before, and we were lied to, we were the victims of a hoax in order to get us here. And that\u2019s why he\u2019s at 47% because people realize it. The independents are fleeing this guy in droves, and it\u2019s not because of anything the Republicans are doing to attract them. When I see the Republican generic ballot showing a big and widening lead, somebody tell me what known national Republican Party policy there is that\u2019s attracting people right now. There isn\u2019t one. It is strictly people abandoning Barack Woods, or Tiger Obama. So there\u2019s an opportunity here to pick up even more of it if you come out and announce a national platform of what you as a party believe in. <\/p>\n

‘But because so many politicians, interest groups and factions have an interest in his continued presence, no one is ready to reveal the man behind the curtain just yet.\u2019 But believe me, just as there were people who knew the real Tiger, there are people who know the real Barack Obama. And Lisa Schiffren in this piece in the American Thinker is exactly right. They are sweating bullets \u2019cause they have to know this whole Obama persona is manufactured and presented to us on a teleprompter with a godlike reverb when he speaks. And there was no godlike reverb today at the Brookings Institution and it sounded flat. ‘Many voters from both the center and the far left who believed in the Obama magic are increasingly dismayed by watching the human god fall to earth. This is a major problem because, as Shafer notes, the impulse of the betrayed is to tear their fallen deities to shreds.\u2019 That\u2019s Lisa Schiffren today in the AmericanThinker.com. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
