It bothers me because I find it insensitive.The election will reflect our thoughts and wishes..why isn't that enough??? When I first posted to this, I asked a legitimate question. I had noticed that they were Board candidates endorsed..but no judges for the national. My next thought was Hmmmm...wonder why only a Board endorsement was given..and no judge endorsements were given. So I asked where the judge endorsements were. This seemed to provoke the ire of Illeana and now you.Since you brought up whining, don't forget I listened to you whine for months regarding the Futurity in CA, to the point where I had to terminate our rather spirited discussion at the National, because enough was enough. I don't care who wants to endorse who, it certainly doesn't reflect poorly on me for saying that I think it is insensitive. Since we both seem to enjoy quotes, here is a quote for you to ponder " Mercy is a higher virtue than honesty,,,"Christine hckryhillgsd@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Steve and Christine Grainger WWW.HICKORYHILLGSD.COM > [Original Message] > From: Bill Basu <billgsd@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > To: <hckryhillgsd@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>; InquestGSD@xxxxxxx <InquestGSD@xxxxxxx>; <showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Date: 9/24/2007 6:29:09 PM > Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: ENDORSEMENTS > > Christine, > As i've said to you in prior private emails, complaining for complaining sake is whining, complaining and willing to take the reprecussions because you want to effect real change is being committed. Now with that being said ,everyone has the right to share what they wish and what they don't wish . You've expressed that you don't wish too, you are not being berated for that, why do need to berate those who do share. That seems to bother you, but as a friend of mind says "you doth protest too much". > Bill > ----- Original Message ---- > From: hckryhillgsd@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > To: "InquestGSD@xxxxxxx" <InquestGSD@xxxxxxx>; showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Sent: Monday, September 24, 2007 6:00:25 AM > Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: ENDORSEMENTS > > > Illeana, I was out of town, so I did not have a chance to respond.
