A column titled "Tebow Sacks Socialism" by conservative multimedia personality/ writer/ public speaker Katie Kieffer currently has the hat trick of being Townhall.com’s "Most Read," "Most E-mailed" and "Most Commented" article/opinion piece.
Needless to say, despite the end of Tim Tebow’s and his Denver Broncos’ improbable six-game winning streak this past Sunday vs. the New England Patriots, the second-year quarterback continues to be a hugely popular subject of articles, opinion pieces and newspaper cartoons. In this piece, Kieffer, among other things, compares Tebow’s leadership style with that of Barack Obama.
The highlights of Kieffer’s approximately-800-word column, at least in Jewish Culture Examiner’s opinion, were the following passages:
- "In a capitalist society, leaders—whether they are the President of the United States, the CEO of a corporation or the quarterback for a football team—take responsibility. They don't blame Congress, their shareholders or their fans. They focus on improving themselves and working harder to compete for a winning result."
- "Tebow’s mere existence sets irrational people on edge. Just as Occupy Wall Streeters claim that entrepreneurial risk-takers like Steve Jobs got rich through 'luck,' Tebow's critics claim that he wins football games through luck—not hard work and raw talent. Dolphins linebacker Kevin Burnett told Sports Illustrated that Tebow is 'a football player who just happens to be a quarterback.'"
- "Tebow's faith is public without becoming irrational or aggressive. Case in point: When asked by the press whether he’s 'saving himself for marriage,' he confidently answers: 'Yes, I am.' There is neither hesitation nor conceit in his face when he answers; there is merely self-assurance."
