Liberal Democrats, too lazy and stupid to compete
scholastically. This is the result of the present day inferior
California school system, once the envy of the entire free
world, after 40 years of Democrat control and parasitic
socialist union infestation.

Golfer Phil Mickelson says he got suckered into hiring William
“Rick” Singer to help out with his kids’ college admission
process, but insists there was no illegal activity involved.
“Our kids would disown us if we ever tried to interfere,”
tweeted Mickelson on Thursday.
The PGA legend and five-time major winner claimed his family —
“along with thousands of others” — used Singer’s college
counseling company The Key to help guide them through the
admission process.
Mickelson has three children, ages 15 to 19. His oldest
daughter, Amanda, currently attends Brown University.
Mickelson on Thursday claimed he had no idea that Singer was
allegedly laundering money and committing mail fraud for
Hollywood celebrities — including actresses Lori Loughlin and
Felicity Huffman — while working with him.
“We are shocked by the revelations of these events,” the 48-year-
old said of the bribery scandal. “Obviously, we were not part of
this fraud.”
Mickelson’s Twitter statement came Thursday, shortly after he
competed in the opening round of The Players Championship in
Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. Afterwards, he spoke to reporters
about his relationship with Singer, whom he met through
acquaintances.
“He was highly recommended by numerous friends that checked out,
so we ended up using him,” Mickelson said. “Where he and his
company were helpful was helping our kids, who have such
different personalities, to find the best place for them. And
then knowing going in what you need to do academically, score-
wise, to be able to get there.”
Mickelson told reporters that he never even thought about
engaging in any criminal activity while working with Singer.
“Our kids….schools are like fighting to get them,” Mickelson
explained. “And I say that as a proud dad. Their grades and
their outside activities, and their worldly views on things have
colleges recruiting them.”
Reiterating what he wrote on Twitter, Mickelson said: “We’re not
a part of this. Most every family that has used the company is
not a part of it. So that’s why I think we’re all surprised.”
