The Battle of Augusta involved no branches of government. The courts, as I recall, refused to get involved.
So whatsherface of this umbrella feminist group tried to wield the combined power of the media and the feminazis to harrass Augsta National into admitting women. There was a parallel campaign to intimidate Tiger Woods into climbing aboard. In both instances these supposedly irresistable forces failed dismally against determined opposition (which is all it really takes, prick the bully with a pin and watch him or her deflate). Even with Howell Raines’ NYT in their hip pocket, their final rally on opening day was barely twenty people (not counting the “iron my shirt” guy).
This showed up what a paper tiger the feminists really are. Why any politician or CEO gives them the time of day is beyond me.
Thanks for the refresher on that issue....I think that it will be different in this case, however, because the Government seems determined to weild it’s fifty-pound sledgehammer on the matter.
