Now here's something that could finally push Bammy over the edge; crimping his golf games!  This line is the clincher; He is not welcome at Woodmont.

'Not Welcome': Members at DC country club take swing at Obama over Israel stance

Members at an exclusive Washington-area country club think President Obama is a real duffer when it comes to foreign policy – and the fairway furor could cost him one option for a post-presidency home course.

Though it’s unclear whether the outgoing president would even seek membership there, some at the Woodmont Country Club in Rockville, Md., are preemptively trying to keep Obama out of the predominantly Jewish club amid complaints about his stance on Israel, according to reports. The members have sent a barrage of emails to club President Barry Forman and General Manager Brian Pizzimenti saying Obama is "not welcome."

The pushback stems from Obama’s decision last month not to have the U.S. veto a U.N. Security Council resolution criticizing Israeli settlements in East Jerusalem and the West Bank and from Secretary of State John Kerry’s speech two days later accusing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of undermining the possibility of a two-state solution.

“[President Obama] has created a situation in the world where Israel’s very existence is weakened and possibly threatened,” longtime member Faith Goldstein wrote in a Dec. 26 email obtained by the Washington Post. “He is not welcome at Woodmont.

I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

I find it interesting that there is a country club in MD. That place is like going to a wild west town outside of Baltimore.

Gee, Fox, thanks for telling your viewers this.  No real need for that, but it does motivate a certain subsection of your viewership to tar/feather/attack/defame/dox the club and it's members.

I wonder how long it'll take for that to happen?

I'm not sure what you're talking about.  Baltimore is the wild west town, not the rest of Maryland.  There are a ton of country clubs in this area.  Tiger Woods used to hold his golf tournament at the Country Club in the Bethesda/Potomac area right behind where I used to live.  Very wealthy, liberal Jewish area.  The schools get Jewish holidays off.  The majority of them voted for the Bamster so I don't feel sorry for them at all.
