Petitioners’ names wanted

Sat., July 25, 2009

The Spokesman-Review

Please print the names of the 90 male members of the elite Spokane Country Club who signed the petition stating that they, not female members, were being discriminated against. Most of us know the type – they all voted for W., and to a “man” did not serve in Iraq. Ann Richards explained their entitlement mindset when speaking of Bush as being “born on third base and thought he had hit a triple.”

Printing this list would also increase the newspaper’s circulation as these anachronistic Babbitts scurried about town emptying newspaper boxes to conceal their ignominy.
