										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.calwatchdog.com/2013/07/12/hypocritical-liberals-party-at-men-only-bohemian-club/bohemian-grove-plaque-wikipedia/" rel="attachment wp-att-45818"><img decoding="async" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-45818" alt="Bohemian Grove plaque - wikipedia" src="http://www.calwatchdog.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Bohemian-Grove-plaque-wikipedia.jpg" width="220" height="190" align="right" hspace="20/" /></a></p>
<p>Conspiracy theorists <a href="http://www.infowars.com/pentagon-insider-writes-novel-about-bohemian-grove-and-globalist-plot/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">have a field day</a> with the annual July meeting of the elite Bohemian Grove semi-secret society. This year&#8217;s frolicking just began at the group&#8217;s Russian River camp.</p>
<p>But what I find fascinating is how elite liberals attend it even though it bans women. Hillary Clinton, Janet Napolitano, Nancy Pelosi, Dianne Feinstein, Barbara Boxer, Meg Whitman &#8212; none can attend.</p>
<p>And none, for some reason, ever protests this. Why aren&#8217;t these powerful women showing up together and pounding on the gates at Russian River? What about the bumper sticker, which one woman near where I live pasted on her car, reading, &#8220;Well-Behaved Women Seldom Make History&#8221;? Are these seemingly powerful women indicating to us that they&#8217;re just charwomen for the Patriarchy?</p>
<p>Anyway, <a href="http://www.pressdemocrat.com/article/20130711/articles/130719879?p=all&amp;tc=pgall" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according to the Press-Enterprise</a>, the top liberal men attending this year&#8217;s celebrations include Chris Matthews, the ultra-liberal news host on MSNBC and former top aide to House Speaker Tip O&#8217;Neill, D-Mass.</p>
<p>And Conan O&#8217;Brien, the liberal late-night talk show host.</p>
<p>In 2011, San Francisco Chronicle columnist Debra Saunders <a href="http://www.creators.com/opinion/debra-saunders/bohemian-grove-men-only.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">listed some Bohemian guests</a>. Liberals included Pelosi&#8217;s husband, Paul Pelosi. So Nancy <em>really</em> is OK with male chauvinism.</p>
<p>And Google boss Eric Schmidt.</p>
<p>Among Republicans or conservatives or moderates over the years, attendees have included presidents Reagan, Nixon, Ford and both Bushes. But they weren&#8217;t high-profile liberals who often push feminism.</p>
<p>Saunders aptly wrote:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><em>&#8220;The Bohemian Club has a right to exist. California courts have upheld the club&#8217;s right to exclude female members, but ordered it to hire female staff at the club and at the grove&#8217;s food facilities.</em></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><em>&#8220;I also believe in free speech, but that doesn&#8217;t mean I would say things I believe others have the right to say. I do not believe the Bohemian Club is a social/theater/music club — although I believe the former member who told me that&#8217;s what the club&#8217;s emphasis used to be.</em></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><em>&#8220;Now I buy [Sonoma State sociology professor Peter] Phillips&#8217; summation — that the retreat presents powerful &#8216;men celebrating their male eliteness, which is kind of how the world works.&#8217;</em></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><em>&#8220;The male-only bastion&#8217;s discriminatory polices hurt women trying to compete in business and politics — and everyone in politics knows it.&#8221;</em></p>
<p>And liberals, including top feminist politicians, are OK with that. So all the talk about Pelosi, Hillary, et al. breaking the &#8220;glass ceiling&#8221; of female advancement in politics is just posturing.</p>
