Jacqui Goddard in Miami

Tiger Woods was braced for new trouble tonight amid reports that at least two women are set to go public with claims that they had affairs with the world’s highest-earning sportsman.

Did you hear George Lopez's joke about this?

Tiger is half black and half Asian. The black half explains the black Escalade with spinner hub caps. The Asian half explains the bad driving.

by law, u.s. hospitals have to provide care to anyone who shows up in an emergency room, cannot be turned away based upon inability to pay

While true, the legal immegrants by and large can pay.

ok, so we'll have a flood of 'domestic partners' coming here for treatment, happy?

If our doctors and medical science can save or lengthen their lives then I would be proud of that. You won't catch AIDS from them unless you go queer on us.

<by law, u.s. hospitals have to provide care to anyone who shows up in an emergency room, cannot be turned away based upon inability to pay>

Absolutely correct. I admitted large numbers of indigent immigrants with serious medical conditions.

I always said if you want someone to send out indigents to die, you will have to find someone else to do it. Actually many were in no danger of imminent death but nonetheless needed complicated and expensive in hospital treatment.

Sometimes they even had to be admitted because there was no place to send them for outpatient care.

The cost of this, of course, is tremendous and in some way or another is borne by all of us.
