National Commander's Suspension Coming to an end Sunday

[JohnKachenmeister]

Maybe the recent changes in the national board has to do with Article XV of the CAP constitution dated 6-June-2007 at the last BoG meeting. If you look at the  national board minutes only 5 members vote to extend the term of office for the national commander. Maybe someone is trying to get their ducks in a roll for a board vote.

That you, Ray?

No I am not a member if the FlWg or even the SER. But if you look at the current NEC members only 1 was not appointed by the current national commander.

I was thinking another Blansett sockpuppet, perhaps.

This is never gonna end, is it?  That will, in my opinion, do us a very bad turn.

The "outside world" may begin to see us as an organization of pickering political shills and agendists...when, in fact, the average CAP Officer (as mostly all CAP Cadets) care very little about the political events of CAPNHQ.  Yeah, someone will post in reply to this something like... "It's very important becasue it WILL effect us all!!!"  However, most don't care.

Frankly, most of the CAP Officers in my unit are more concerned with Group and Wing Policy than anything from Maxwell, and most cadets are interested in building the unit, promoting to the next rank and when the next SARex is going to be.

This has got to end...let's take this thread in a new direction.

WHAT WOULD IT TAKE TO END THIS?

WHAT WOULD IT TAKE TO END THIS?


How about a decision by the Board of Governors?

Does anyone know when the decision is suppose to come out?

Naw, I doubt that would do it.  That would merely be some sort of "victory" for one side or the other.  Then the mudslinging will get really bad.

Power vacuums are really strong, they end up taking people with them.  Then there is that "residual innuendo" that keeps the fires burning long after the bar-be-cue's been cooked.  You, power vacuums suck!

If TP us outed, what guarantee have we that it wil really end?  What if he is voted to remain?

When will an end come of this?

Maybe the BoG would try to make an example of TP.

Hit the nail right on the head, Col. Breeze. When it comes to CAP politics far above my paygrade (which is 000.00, and not expected to grow any richer) and it does not affect me directly, my typical - and somewhat vulgar - response is:

DILLIGAFF! (Does It Look Like I Give A Flying [censored]).

Lord knows, I see enough reenactments of the prelude to the Night of the Long Knives at group level or higher. Thankfully, it doesn't happen very often within my squadron. It doesn't take very long for the jungle telegraph - ahem, rumor mill - to spread the news.

[BillB]

Will someone call the Board of Governors and tell them we're waiting for a decision. At least they haven't called me to ask if I wanted to be National CC.

[Skyray]

At least they haven't called me to ask if I wanted to be National CC.

Funny, they haven't called me either.  Do you suppose that you have to be a member?

They've made their decision and I'm driving to Montgomery now!!

[BillB]

Look in your rear view mirror while driving to Montgomery. Is that a black van behind you?

[SDF_Specialist]

Has the annoucement come out yet? Where would one find out?

Don't hold yer breath...

[SDF_Specialist]

OK, I should have asked a more reasonable question. Has anyone confirmed that the BoG was really going to meet today to reach a decision?

[RiverAux]

Nope, just the word of that always reliable "media" outlet --- NOTF.

[SDF_Specialist]

I typed in "News Of The Force" into google. When I clicked on the link it said, "warning: this site may hurt your computer". Is there any particular reason why? Or does anyone have a link for NOTF?

Funny, I never would have imagined that it was a Yahoo group.
