Sharon, you have to separate the issues. I don't know why you're picking on Paul, but we have those who voted "yes" because they didn't feel, given the current bylaws and their fiduciary responsibilities as board members that they COULD vote "no". Now, you'll get Peggy et. all to say "can too", "can too", "can too" and you'll get others to read the bylaws and say "nope, over a certain age, in good standing with the AKC, paid $66 and they're a member". I didn't hear anyone say Hunte's membership was a GOOD idea. Now, you and others can go on and on about how bad puppy mills are, how bad things are for the breeding stock....all day long. That doesn't change the bylaws, does it? It will be interesting to see how this new vote shakes out and if members have sought their own legal counsel for advice. Yes, I know we have attorneys on the board and on the list, but ask a room full of legal eagles how Anna Nicole's will is going to turn out if you REALLY want a whole bunch of opinions. But if you want to rehash the puppy mill problems, that's fine. I'll just delete.
