Romney- 'Augusta should admit women'

I have no problem with someone giving their opinion on this, especially if asked. Even in Obama's case, I believe the response was preceded by "obviously it's a private club and they can do whatever they want".

My issue is people trying to grandstand and score political points off one private club by which .000005 percent of the population will never be impacted one way or another.
 
Time to shake the etch-a-sketch?

It is going to be so hard to get behind Romney. He'll be a weenie the entire campaign. The Obama campaign is going to be so nasty with its attacks on him. And he'll probably just turn the other cheek and "be the bigger man" rather than attack Ojackass and incur the wrath of the meanies from the liberal press. (it won't matter, they're coming after him regardless)

Just hope his Super Pac people have more balls than he does.
 
Yeah Leftwith. Nice analysis and astute observation of the current primary campaign. Obviously anybody know that neither Romney or his Super Pac allies have the balls to launch negative advertising -- except on weekdays that end in "y".
 
Crockett, it is easy for Romney to attack his fellow GOPers. They don't have the backing of the corrupt lib press.

Won't be the same with Obama. And Romney is going to be in full-on "win over the independents" mode, meaning he won't want to offend anyone, particularly the lib media.

I hope he surprises me and proves me wrong.

Why we are even having this disccusion is beyond me. It's a PRIVATE club. Get that?? PRIVATE. If they wanted to only admit people whose names eneded in an A they could, because it's PRIVATE.
Why Romney would even say anything about a Private clubs policy is just stupid.
Why in the world can't we get someone in the WH that is for individual rights, small gvt, and actually MEAN IT and do it? The pandering is just sickening.
 
Who the **** cares about a Country Club or a Basketball Tournament, what about the over 24% African American Unemployment rate? What are either of your plans to do something about that? What are both of your plans to reduce the price of gas that is causing the price of everything else to rise?
 
My plan for black unemployment: they are hiring at HEB and Whataburger all the time. All you have to do is show up for work and push a broom or stack groceries or flip burgers and maybe clean up the bathrooms now and then. I did it for years and it is an easy way to work your way through the public education system.

For gas, if you can't afford it, drive less. IIf you are on foot, don't wear a hoodie, eat Skittles and drink tea if armed vigilantes are patrolling the neighborhood. Try to be white while they are on your block.

Final suggestion: quit whining , you *******. Anybody who can't make it in this country would be dead already in most others.
 
Not very eloquent, but I agree with that assessment.

I waited tables with a degree for a few years too and I didnt think I was too good for it either. Gotta pay the bills.
 
Is it any suprise that a politician would say this? Do you guys even know how this whole "politics" game is played? Hint: it's to get elected. It's not to offer economically sound opinions or sensible blurbs. Romney, I think, realizes that he and the GOP have a problem with the females. If Romney wants their vote he's going to have to mend some fences.

I think Augusta should admit women, but it's their call, so in that sense I don't really care.
 
Our country is faced with so many difficult challenges. Augusta National Golf Club is not one of them. Stupid question to ask a presidential candidate really. Since Obama and Romney gave the same answer it is all the more a non issue.
