Britt Hume to Tiger Woods: “He’s said to be a Buddhist. I don’t think that faith offers the kind of forgiveness and redemption that is offered by the Christian faith. So my message to Tiger would be, “Tiger, turn your faith—turn to the Christian faith, and you can make a total recovery and be a great example to the world.”
My reaction: Actually, I agree with Mr. Hume, and I hope Tiger Woods and all of us sinners can come to acccept the forgiveness that Jesus Christ offers. Buddhism says, “Reform yourself —or pay for your own sins in your next life.” Jesus says, “Come unto me, all ye who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Mr. Woods could use some rest, and forgiveness, about now.

Chris Matthews on the Tea Party movement: “And they’re monochromatic, right?… Meaning they’re all white. All of them — every single one of them — is white.”

Uhhh. Yeah. I think it’s wonderful that Mr. Matthews is so colorblind that he can look at the Tea Parties and not even see racial differences. Or maybe not, if everyone looks white to him. Now if he’d just quit talking about it.
