Someone needs to tell MSNBC Tiger Woods is not a politician

Just a quick gripe before I head out for the day.  I'm at MSNBC.com reading an article about the Afghan war, and I see their typical, and often amusing, link to the political cartoons for the week.  I figure hey, I like political cartoons, especially when they agree with me, so I'll click on it.  What do I see as the first cartoon?  Tiger's wrecked car.

Folks, Tiger is not a politician.  There's nothing political about him.  Making fun of him does not constitute political commentary.  Yes, it is social commentary, and if a cartoonist wants to poke fun at him, that's fine, but that would be an editorial cartoon, not specifically a political cartoon.  So folks at MSNBC, leave the sports figures out of your political cartoons, please, and try posting more political stuff instead.

kthxbye
