Hey, at least the Times is calling for private action against Augusta National, not government intervention. The right of association also includes the right NOT to associate with someone in a business relationship because you disagree with their policies.
I agree as it applies to whites and/or males. There are plenty of woman only health clubs and various minority organizations & ethinic groups that are "exclusionary", per the liberal notion of other races or ethnicities being members. I have no problem with these groups being discriminatory in their membership.
Liberal freedom of association is another case of rights for me and none for thee.
Aaaah, but one thing they supposedly place great value in is the right to choose. Augusta is simply exercising that right and the NYT has gotten all hot and bothered over it. Perhaps Hootie should 'splain it in language even Maureen Dowd can understand by telling them it is "all about choice". LOL
