    I would hope people reading here would realize I'm paraphrasing, and not quoting directly, but then again we have JimL posting here.
    What did I say will happen?

      Most of the negative responses seem to be ignoring this.

      It's true that it's okay for private clubs to be all boy or all girl. Just like it is okay for those private clubs to decide to change their policy. This wasn't forced on them by the government, it was something they decided to do themselves.

        Kiddo, we're not so naive, thinking progs will just stop at '''''plan''''' of 'we'll let girls in but segregate them from boys'!

                  Liberals have been using the "camel's nose in the tent" strategy with great success for decades. They always start small but keep up a steady pressure until they eventually get what they really want.

                  In the Boy Scouts, they started with same sex homosexuals; now it's segregated members of the opposite sex; next it's going to be full integration. Who knows what they have planned after that.

                    Considering how Obama insisted on schools needed to allow transgendered students to use bathrooms and locker rooms consistent with their chosen gender identity at the moment that is hardly a stretch.

                                CP didn't actually allege that you'd made the comment to him, Jim. Perhaps you should think about paying more attention to what's being said and less to winning the internet.
