< "Controversy" on whether or not they'll invite IBM CEO, a woman. >

Both Romney and Obama are quoted in the article as saying they should.

Here's a fact, whether they do or don't, it's none of the government's fucking business. It's a private club. No federal or state funds pay for that course.

Why is Augusta always in the spotlight for this shit? I remember a court case in the 90s where a guy sued a university because he wanted entry and was denied. It was an all girls school. He lost. Guess why...

It was a fully private school. No public funding.

Show me the difference? Oh wait, I know, rich, white men are tied to Augusta, and they're fair game for everyone to shit on.

Bill Clinton, while he was the President, asked to play there and was denied.

So maybe...

I'd bet that was less about partisanship and more about not wanting to disrupt the entire place with Secret Service bullshit.
