"The past is not over, it is not even the past." Or try this one. "The past is prologue to the future". Or the famous quote about the necessity of learning the lessons of history or else we are doomed to repeat the same errors. While not in exact words, perhaps, the meaning is clear. The past is not always the best thing to depend on and to use it as a role model or as an excuse to keep the same old same old, is a bad move indeed.
A character in a novel states, "...the past is so hard to shift. It comes with us like a chaperone, standing between us and the newness of the present - the new chance."
David Israel et al would have you denied this newness, this new chance to improve upon our situation, be it here or in the world. He lives in a world of darkness wherein secrets, threats and intimidation, plots and cabals rule. He lives in a world where an attorney on a leash is quoted, yet his opponents are castigated for going to attorneys and excuse me! What was that? Who goes to attorneys, ones that we never see, never see a printed opinion, just hearsay. Yes, David, I could see you living in the culture of the NSA but that is not where you live now. Nor are you our self appointed chaperone, thank you very much! You are in CVWPB and there are 14 to 15 thousand people who are affected by your daily nefarious deeds. You speak of the past, of your supposed past experience which is "so" valuable to us, yet badmouth others of the past history of CV so where is your so called historical perspective then? Why badmouth an administration under George Lowenstein when we had a nice balanced budget and were able to put away substantial monies towards the paving - which you then pissed away in one of your stupid moments. SO which past and perspective should we remember?
We had the "best" contract ever and then had to get rid of Kent security and then the whole truth about their reputation and troubles came out and then we have another "best" contract with Platinum and lo and behold, the complaints grow and grow and I saw a dangerous one myself when a visitor was allowed in thru the resident gate, no sticker, no discussion, no walking over - just open the bar and in he went. Security? I think not.
Your paranoia is obvious to everyone and while there is a definite progressive attitude now towards mental illness, it is not a good quality for a leader to have nor to see it expressed in a meeting where the so called leader yells suddenly at a gentleman sitting there and accusing him of saying something. Speaking of school - are we to be punished by you for saying what is in your imagination only, teacher always right, or are we to have a sane UCO administrator. Are we to have a person who works with others or a megalomaniacal one who thinks he is king, leader for life, appointed by his own version of G-d - himself - and we all have to live in his world of congratulatory verbal selfies, he and his chief cohort, Ed Black, and every once in a while hearing from low intelligent creatures such as Petey Boy who think they are oh so clever as the world laughs at them or inane apologists who make no sense and who then back away when their foolishness is shown and their feet are well entrenched in their mouths.
We here in the Village want process and procedure.
We want transparency and fair play.
We want cooperation rather than intimidation.
We want inclusion.
We want open books and no making numbers jump through hoops.
We want committees kept honest and valuable, rather than someone, gee, I wonder who, trying to raise the spending limit for the president and for UCO up till 25,000 dollars.
We want a leader who does not throw tantrums, but rather one who knows how to listen, how to admit an error and move on and not take disagreements personally.
We want common sense.
We want free and open access to all media outlets in the Village and an open campaign.
We want David Israel and Ed Black gone and Phyllis Richland is.
We want deadwood out and fresh air and new plantings in.
We want common courtesy as the rule of the Village and we want a UCO which reaches out to the associations rather than enabling their failure and I am till wondering who gets the benefit of that? Could it be multiple unit owners? Hmmm, I know there are quite a few in UCO.
We want a UCO where things and issues are not ignored or swept under the rug but are brought out in the open and handled properly.
We want to discuss plans for post Millennium.
We want more brass when we deal with WPRF and we want to see the possibilities of even buying the Clubhouse and pools and getting WPRF gone, or at least tamed.
"Sooner or later, we all sit down to a banquet of consequences."
Are your ready for that dinner, David Israel? Are your henchmen and tame sheep ready?
