Ha

The old American Spectator guys may have wrecked a fine magazine with their Clinton obsession, but the guys still crank out some saucy prose on occasion:

The tragedy is that Lott's deviant utterings have turned attention from the campaign to feminize August National. For naught, it would seem, did Treasury secretary designate John Snow resign from the exclusive golf club in order to improve his confirmation chances. There was suspicion that faced with the prospect of earning a government salary Mr. Snow would no longer be able to afford August's steep green fees. But now it appears there was more to this profile in cowardice than first suspected. Mr. Snow is guilty of activity even more reprehensible than sex discrimination -- age discrimination. In abandoning his Augusta colleagues, he was traducing on the reputation of a membership most of which is in its seventies, eighties and nineties. One would think Strom Thurmond would feel right at home here if asked to join, but think again. Who'd be there for him to squeeze? As one of his lackeys might say, if Augusta had accepted women, it wouldn't be in the mess it's in today.
There's more good stuff in this week's Enemy Central.
