[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Comments that Chevy Chase Club discriminates against against Jews or any other religious group OR that it blackballs anyone are both ill-informed and ridiculous.  I am a member at Chevy Chase, and I can tell you that we have numerous Jewish members AND that votes by the Board on prospective members are by a simple majority ---- NO blackballing.  Moreover, the idea that most of the members there are necessarily Republicans or conservatives is silly.  I have no idea what party most of my friends at the Club are, but I do know that "liberal" ideas are freely expressed by many of the members, along with conservative ideas --- just as is true in society here at large.[/quote]

This is exactly how society should behave.  I'm sure the members of the club are civilized and respectful of others' opinions.  It's the liberals who are intolerant of anyone who does not share their beliefs.  They take no shame in behaving badly.

I also think many are jealous because they are not in a position to be in this club.  I respect those who are members even though it will never be a possibility for me.[/quote]
