One other thing. I didn't say keep blacks out of country clubs.
Another distortion that you don't seem to mind making to villify me.
We had a number of black members at Woodhaven. I played with several
of them on a regular basis. Ask Chris Bellomy. He was a member there
right along with me. But, of course, you can't be confused by the
facts when it comes to attacking me.

What I did post is that we (the members of Woodhaven) were subjected,
as the surrounding area deteriorated, to armed robberies on the course
and in the parking lot. We also had groups of young toughs roaming the
course on foot and bicycle, without any regard to the notion that they
were trespassing. That was finally cleaned up by bartering with the FW
Police association and having armed officers in uniform patrol the
course at intervals the punks could not predict in exchange for
playing privileges. There were several arrests made including a punk
(WHITE) who was caught pouring acid on a green to spell out
profanities and another (WHITE) who was caught red-handed with
gasoline and a lighter about to commit arson on the toilet structure
on the back nine.

I resigned from Woodhaven in 2007 when I could not take the urban
blight any more. I may sign up for Trophy Club near Grapevine TX. A
number of the Pigeons have lighted there.

You seem to be excluding the fact that a number of Democrats voted
against it. And others had to be threatened, bribed and intimidated
into voting for it. The real bipartisan way to vote was against. If
this was such a great deal, it would have passed easily last year
given the majority the Dems have.

Democrats think we are stupid. Ten years of tax increases for six
years of services. Plus the fact that money is being taken away from
Medicare when it is already going broke. The focus should always have
been on fixing the mess caused by the housing crisis, not adding
another "entitlement".

And if they exist, which is doubtful, they pale in the hateful, death-wish
rhetoric that consistently spews from your pie-hole. One doesn't have to
dig too deep to find how you wish damnation on all those who differ with
your politics. You can point a fat finger but you have nine pointing back
at you. If you were decent person, you'd cite or shut up these unprovoked
attacks to Ken and others.

There are other exciting players out there besides the Cheetah. Too
many people have blinders on when it comes to him.

Isn't it conceivable that he's a changed man. Surely you have to be
impressed with his changed attitude toward the game and fans. If this
continues, then your valid reasons for criticizing him have ended.

Looks like he has lost control of temper and mouth again. As Vern said
when Tiger blew up on #6, some things never change.
