FOR THERE IS NOTHING HID THAT SHALL NOT BE MADE MANIFEST

     Something I was taught as a kid, and which I, in turn, taught to my biological and educational kids, was that a lie is a waste of time, only accruing more damage the longer it was put out and about. The truth would always come to the surface and then there was TROUBLE. The title above comes from The Gospel, according to Mark, 4/21. It continues, "neither was it made secret, but that it may come abroad."

     A sheker, or lie, in Judaism is also deemed wrong so no matter what religion one practices, it is a lesson we all should have learned and is never too late to do so.

     Now go and read all of Dorothy's postings re the budget, read them carefully and then think back to the questions asked by Ed and others at the delegate assemblies and then wonder how in the name of all that is holy, to think, to believe, to trust that all their lies will remain undercover and no one will ever care enough or be bright enough to wring that truth out. And it is out in a major way. All the lies, all the dodges, all the mistruths and half truths, all the evasions - and now we need answers. But the answers can never come because there would have to be an admission of guilt, of cupidity, of criminally stupid fiscal management and planning, if any at all.

     We, the residents of CV are entitled to the truth and to the best UCO we can have. We need people who come out and mix with the residents, not sit inside 24/7 doing who knows what - contemplating one's navel, perhaps? In the Steve Jobs' biography, it is written "In the annals of innovation, new ideas are only part of the equation. Execution is just as important."

     People, the only new ideas we have heard are poor substitutes for truly new ideas, just rehashes of the same old, the same excuses, the same time wasting and currency spending that we have had certainly for the past five years. It is the lack of proper pro activism that is needed to face the new things coming at us down the pike - post Millennium, proper new by laws, proper new Articles, new servants of the people in UCO, less self aggrandizement and more humbleness and thought. And above all - the execution - is we need those who know about process and procedure. Like Diogenes, we can go seeking with our lantern but scarcely one is to be found.

     Let us turn down the bad ideas and let us vote in new people, good and fresh people with a clean breeze and honestly above all. We are sorely lacking in that right now.
     POWER TO THE PEOPLE. Old, but still true.
