All-Male Golf Clubs. I have some opinions on the whole controversy about Augusta National and their policy to exclude women from membership. I won't go into all those right now, but I did read this quote that I thought was quite interesting. Especially since it can be transposed onto just about any controversial subject:


"The most worrying aspect is how Martha Burk and her organization seem to be saying, 'I have a view on how society should be ordered. You at Augusta National are not doing anything illegal, but you do not conform to my view. So I'm going to do everything I can to damage your golf tournament until you bend to my view."
