I don't think ANYONE should have the right to slam a judge or discredit a
club on this list in this manner. If posting such an outrageous accusation
makes this person feel more important then, I believe, he may have achieved
just the opposite. 
As far as the judge is concerned, she may or may not have been right in
choosing this dog, but it was still her decision, however, I think it would
have been more decent of the poster to go directly to the source.
The club involved is another matter. Everyone knows how much we all
struggle to stay alive, and we all work hard. At the end, it was the
membership of the club who voted for this judge and is not subject for
criticizing of an outsider.
Just like Jamie said so eloquently in her "song": You cain't wag your tail
if you're wagging your tongue!"
