The latest word is that Elin Woods will file for divorce. If you don't know why, shame! Everyone now knows every last detail of Tiger's infidelities (doesn't that term seem incredibly inadequate in his case?). Does the couple merit such scrutiny? Well, you'd have to say so. After all, even with both a yacht and a marriage called Privacy, every last juicy detail must be revealed. After all, they deserve it--him for winning all those golf tournaments and making all those commercials...and her for being too cute.
And today, in the midst of the deadest news week of the year, coincidentally we learned that Karl Rove, American traitor and Weasel of the Potomac, is also getting unhitched, this time from his second wife. Now, here is a man who has actively thrust himself into the national dialogue on all sorts of issues, particularly marriage--how sacred it is, how fundamental it is to the 'American way' of life, and particularly, who should be barred from taking part in it. Certainly, such an active interest would invite a nice, healthy dialogue on marriage in general--and his, in particular.
But instead, here's what his spokesperson had to say: "There will be no further comment and the family requests that its privacy be respected."
Hmm. The guy who couldn't talk enough about your marriage...suddenly clams up about his own. But I guess some things should remain confidential--unless, of course, it means outing a CIA agent for your own country in order to divert attention from your sorry, should-been indicted ass. I guess Valerie Plame's marriage...her career...really wasn't that sacred.
So, really nothing hypocritical here. At least not for his ilk. And I guess we should respect his wishes.
But I do have to confess I'd love to know who the other woman was.
Or...the other guy.
Or...the other sheep.
