The Masters now have no sponsors thanks to these cows, they are also threatening to go after club members employers. All because men want to have their own private club used for a private sporting event.

This organization is obviously sexist! They are run by one sex and one sex only! Their leadership (see bottom of page)has one sex and one sex only on it!

Their steering committee has one sex only! Their member organizations are primarily one sex! They must be forced to admit the other sex to their leadership ranks and steering committee! And allow them to be involved in running the organization. An organization that profits from US TAX EXEMPT nonprofit laws since much of their funding apparently comes from nonprofit corporations.

I'm not yalking about Augusta National!!! No! In talking about THE NATIONAL COUNCIL OF WOMEN'S ORGANIZATIONS! There is not ONE MAN involved in their organization in a leadership and/or decision making capacity. Read the links above and look at their web site!

HMMM. Looks like there might be a chance for Fox to move in on Agusta if CBS chickens out. Parley

Regardless of whether CBS runs it or not, the most popular (arguebly, I know)of the four majors will find a network to air it. It simply has way too high a viewership not to.

Now that The Masters has eliminated its television sponsors, the leader of a national women's group said Saturday she will urge CBS Sports to drop coverage of golf's most watched tournament until Augusta National has a female member.

That ain't gonna happen - this is golf's Super Bowl in terms of television dollars. There's no one in their right mind at CBS who would even think of it.

And Rosie O' Donnell will do the play-by-play. Maybe Phil Donahue could carry her equipment. He will soon be needing a job.

Martha Burk, chairwoman of the National Council of Women's Organizations, said she will not give up the fight until The Masters fades away as a major championship or until the club admits a woman.

...or until hell freezes over - whichever comes first...

Udderly (sp?) predictable.

There's no appeasing these people. Look for these snarfy old bags to organize a boycott of the State of Georgia next.

Hootie Johnson is among the last of a dying breed: a public figure willing to say what he thinks and stand up for what he believes. And nothing pisses liberals off like someone unwilling to bow down before them. We may well see a picket line of unattractive women marching outside Augusta National chanting "No Justice No Peace,'' but I'll be rooting hard for The Masters.

CBS should tell them it will be fun to see a boycott that no one shows up for.

Why don't the woman get it? If it werent't for men, there would be no cars to carry their fat butts around, no planes, no airconditioning, no washing machines, no vacuum cleaners, no ... well you get the idea.

We should send them for a permenent vacation in say Saudi Arabia.

Martha Burk, chairwoman of the National Council of Women's Organizations, said she will not give up the fight until The Masters fades away as a major championship or until the club admits a woman.

It's more important for Burk to have at least one female member at Augusta National than to worry about the tens-of-millions of dollars in loses she wants the Master's related businesses to suffer. Why does she seek to deprive millions of people from enjoying the benefits of watching the Masters on television? Answer: she's a parasitical elite and that's what parasites do. Because they produce nor create lasting values they can only leech off those that do produce free-market values.

Martha Burk is not a value creator. She is a value destroyer. Admittedly she is small time compared to politicians and bureaucrats in the federal government, but she is a parasite nonetheless.
