It's absurd that she is being forced to resign from the organization. The organization only exists in the first place because the all-men's club wouldn't accept women. Considering every Republican President for almost 100 years has belonged to the all-male club, I wonder how many male Supreme Court justices also belong. It's quite ironic though that she's being criticized by Republicans for belonging to a gender specific club that sprang up as a response to a gender specific club that most well connected Republicans belong to. I wonder if Jeff Sessions, the former judicial nominee who was Bork'd for being a racist and is now the ranking Republican in the Senate Judiciary Committee, belongs to the Bohemian Grove.
