The mayor of a tony Maryland suburb resigned from a prominent golf club on Monday because the club might not welcome President Obama as a member.
Jeffrey Slavin, the mayor of the Montgomery County town of Somerset, wrote in an email that he would not remain a member of Woodmont Country Club because of a recent fevered debate about whether Obama could join.
Some members of the historically Jewish club have said they would not welcome Obama, who has played there four times during his presidency, because of his recent decision not to veto a U.N. Security Council resolution criticizing Israeli settlements.
He has created a situation in the world where Israels very existence is weakened and possibly threatened . . . longtime member Faith Goldstein wrote in a late December email obtained by The Washington Post. He is not welcome at Woodmont. His admittance would create a storm that could destroy our club.
Another member, attorney Marc B. Abrams, called it inconceivable that Obama should be in the club because of his stance toward Israel.

Well, how about the blacks demanding segregated housing at that second rate kalifornia school? Might we consider both scenarios simultaneously?
Win - Win.
Buh bye
Ask the troops at Andrews how it felt to lose access to their golf courses almost every damn weekend and how this club is going to love the secret service interfering with their club for the rest of his miserable life - since he treats other people’s property as if he owns it
Good,must be jerk.
Well, at least now we know there are two vacancies at the club.
No big thing ; it's just Kabuki !
Yeah, club closed today for a party of one. Nuts! Let him buy his own golf course. he’s got the dough.
maybe he should turn the South Side of Chicago into a golf course; clean up the crime. Assuming they don’t find corpses under the would-be green.
Mr. Slavin is slave’in to nothing short of unreality. Obama’s done America and Israel great, great harm and done so deliberately and he’s been ratcheting up the harm for eight years. Mr. Slavin, do you really want to see Barack Hussein Obama swinging golf clubs in your leisure time? There are plenty of public courses to which he can drag Secret Service. Let this fraud of a race-mongermix with “the people” for a change.

How members voted for him...hmm?
That, or the liberal Jewish wing of the DNC told da mayor his career would stop there, if he didn't publicly resign from the CC.
I wouldn’t have Jugears as a lawn jockey.
Been to Woodmont a couple of times as a guest. Anecdotal, but I never saw any black people there.
This man was interviewed during the WMAL morning drive show here in DC. He embarrassed himself, in my opinion, as he didn’t appear to know the basics of the ‘controversy,’ admitted that the membership committee had not made public its discussions, and he didn’t even know if Obama had asked to join. He quit before knowing if the club would actually deny membership or even offer it to Obama.
In an interview last week, a member of the club, not this guy, said that what was being discussed was to give bh0 a ‘free’ membership that costs $89,000 to join and around $10,000 annual dues. Many of the predominantly Jewish membership were objecting to having bh0 as a member because of the anti-Israel position he has taken during his presidency and especially for abstaining on the UN vote a couple of weeks ago that condemned Israel and denied that Judea was ever a part of historic Israel
Now you may have a product idea there, remanufacture black lawn jockeys with Obama’s likeness. They would sell like hotcakes.
Jews trying to put some distance between the tarbaby.

I'm sure he'll find somewhere to play. Obama too, hope he get's it for free. Hate to see Barry spend Michelle's dress money. And certainly in no way a denial of free speech. They mayor needs to get a grip.
