Chinese Communist Party outlaws 'golf and gluttony'

#1  Well that just fucked up Obumble's China trip now didn't it?

#2  That was close. If it was 'golf and alcohol (and/or a good cigar)' that was outlawed it would ruin the game.

#3  "Don't be a Kim!"
Posted by: Skidmark || 10/22/2015 7:49 Comments || Top||

#4  The regulations -- which apply to everyone in the 88-million-strong Communist Party -- also forbid forming cliques within the party and nepotism.

Seems unlikely to be enforced except against Xi's enemies.

#5  Been reading Gulag by Anne Applebaum. Nothing new here. The central committee issues requirements, and everyone promptly ignores them. The huge gap between statements and reality is one of the aspects that makes communist countries so surreal.

#6  Meh. Not a fan of golf anyway.

#7  Then there's the gap between public statements and reality here in the USA, also surreal.

#8  Outlawing The Seven Deadly Sins won't work either.

#9  Diesel golf carts,
Cast Iron clubs,
Gang of Four is no more
Mow the fairways send to Kimmie
For his dinny

Juche Golf = Play within yourself
