Tiger gets classy; Donates 3mil and sends mobile hospital with 50 emts to Haiti

Everyone hates on Tiger and while he may be an adulter at heart, his heart is a heart of gold. Tiger has coughed up 3 million to the relief efforts in haiti. Should we celebrate this or view it as a ploy to clean up his image?

I for one celebrate this and even if it is a ploy to clean up his image. Atleast that money won't be fought over in the divorce settlement and will be put to good.

I've never understood why everyone turned so hard on tiger. Sure, he likes to sleep around. It's not a good rep, but it is what it is. I hope he comes back to golf and dominates once again. I just hope he gets his head right and his personal life straightened up.

 

I know the US budgets out this sort of thing, and I know this is getting into taboo territory (Maybe we should start a taboo thread on this because i would enjoy hearing your opinions) but as much as im cool with helping out haiti, we have plenty of problems here in america that $100 million dollars could address alot of things here. I'm all for people giving what ever they can out of their personal budgets. That's their money and decision and I respect that. I also understand that a certain amount of money is set aside out of the federal budget to help with these things but as a citizen of a sovereign nation my tax dollars shouldnt fund an insurance policy for other countries misfortunes. I sympathize with the haitians and I wouldn't wish what happened to them on anyone but if this happens in california, which it very well could, is the rest of the world gonna step up like America always steps up?

If the answer is that they will, then I guess im cool with america being the world's "act of god" insurance. If we are afforded those same protections I'm cool with it... but if they are not willing to proportionately give to us what we give to them, then I think its a bit unfair.

You gotta think.. America is the reason so many Chinese people have jobs.

I know I live in the best country in the world and im sitting in my nice apartment with a refridgerator full of food talking about things being unfair, but an earthquake is an earthquake and its mass devistation no matter where you live and just because we are in america, that doesn't mean we don't need help too you know.

People who complain that america hasn't given enough money are foolish. People ask me why i haven't donated and its simple. I have donated. I pay taxes already and they got me good last year. So the way I see it, they will get their money out of me because donating $100,000,000.00 USD is a very generous donation and I applaud President Obama being so quick to offer it at my expense.
