Kennedy Quits All-Male Social Club
---
Kennedy's spokeswoman said the Owl Club was primarily a social club, while the Princeton group actively supported excluding women and minorities from the school.

"There is absolutely nothing in common between this social club and an organization like CAP that was established to push a political agenda to prohibit women and minorities from attending Princeton," Wagoner said. "No one can question Senator Kennedy's lifelong commitment to fighting for civil rights, equality and justice."

Yes, it was dumb for Kennedy to continue his affiliation with this social club, but it is FAR different that an organization whose purpose was to keep "undesirables" out of the school.
