Nobody is going to threaten not to televise the Masters or say it can\u2019t be a sanctioned tournament unless they let in women. That isn\u2019t going to happen.<\/p>\n<p>This whole thing is just so ridiculous. The relic from a bygone era here is not Augusta National. The relic is Martha Burk, her women\u2019s organizations and their tactics, motives and objectives.My friends, if you take a serious look at what Hootie Johnson\u2019s done for women in South Carolina where he was born, raised and lives, you will find that all that Martha Burk is saying about him is absolute BS. Hootie Johnson and the Augusta National people have a tradition, and there are a lot of other groups that have traditions in this country. They\u2019re steeped in them, and there\u2019s nothing wrong with them. That\u2019s what living in a free country is all about.<\/p>\n<p>Nobody is being hurt by not being allowed to join Augusta National. It\u2019s a tiny little club. This is greatly misunderstood and has been tremendously miscast by the media, because the fight is being led by a bunch of liberals who are engaging here in an old-fashioned political policy that\u2019s worn out and was discredited years and years ago. The feminists really lost out forever when the ERA never went anywhere, and they\u2019ve been bitter ever since.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I admire Hootie Johnson, and I\u2019ve been to Augusta.
