If this isn't a civil war within the club, then what is? *********************************************************************** Hi Tom; Wasn't sure why this mentioned me and then I found Margy's letter to the List and Evan's post on what he has to say about Ken Downing and Margy.......so I assume this is related to that and my post about no real split or civil war going on with the Board or membership in my opinion? I still hold that opinion. Disagreements between people happen all the time. This List or Board or membership is no different. Some are definitely more vicious than necessary in defending or arguing their sides......and what a waste of time those are!! I think our membership is intelligent enough to both handle the truth and discern the truth when they hear it. We ALL would speak out to defend our position or side of a serious issue or accusation. Almost every single person always wants to hear both sides of anything if they are at all concerned or interested or it affects their vote or their opinion. That's a good thing. If anyone wishes to post a question or an opinion or their side of an issue it just does not bother me as long as the posts are civil.....and often I find some informative. ( definitely not all are civil.) The only posts that bother me are those that blatantly accuse anyone of being liars and vicious just because they don't agree with that poster and their side of an issue........or make accusatory statements as if they were fact. Those I delete and consider a waste of time. Hopefully we can all visit at the National and talk dogs for while......it sure doesn't seem to do any good to try to get a good dog conversation going here anymore.....and that IS sad to me! Goin' to Denver DENVER.......Denver......gonna' see a whole lotta good dogs showing there.......<G> Carolyn marhaven@jps,net www.Marhaven.com ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2007.
