They are contacting their BOD and asking for a review on their by laws,so "we don't go thru what the GSD people are going thru". I expected that reaction. Very few are laughing, tho plenty are shaking their heads. Ileana What people are not seeming to understand is that in the end the membership gets the blame. The majority voted those Board members in! CONTINUALLLY!!! This is how the GSDCA is run, one person in control of a few, who in turn are the popular vote of the majority. These people are still going to judge the Nationals on a rotating basis, they will still get Specialty assignments, and they will STILL get re-elected! To have any change you must out the old and start with new people, new ideas, and a new stream of consciousness. Until this happens no change will occur. BOYCOTT those 9. Many of whom are judges. Don't give them assignments. Don't give them your vote. Do work on a cohesive group that can effectively and proactively affect change. Stop griping, accept some responsibility, and work for change. I have read forwards from many lists. What is needed is a little less talk and a lot more action.

Some people are like Slinkies ... Not really good for anything...... But they still bring a smile to your face when you think about pushing them down a flight of stairs.
