I don't disagree that these things are scandalous and should be stopped. I'm just concerned that people will completely overlook the good things they do as well and that would be too bad. Unfortunately, I think that they are complex organizations trying to conduct business as usual in a world that has learned not to tolerate that kind of business (nor should we!).
We should pay our dues. The cost of withdrawing, to us and to others, are far too high.

And the idiots that have been there for decades are out???? Might be worth it! LOL

Don't know. They might be "grandfathered" in.
You're right Brenda...the old guys are still lifers! The 8 years would only apply to new appointments.

150 sexual predators is "some?"
Unfortunately, after our illustrious president declared he was going to war with or without the diplomacy of the UN or its blessing, we are now rather a high joke to the International community. Good going, bushie, now the world hates America.
Sigh! no way to get rid of the reelected deadwood and no way to keep the decent ones! (there are some decent ones???)

I haven't. I do volunteer work daily, but that was shit all over because it was people on death row who I was tending to. I wasn't talking about you, but the ivory tower Sharon seems to live in.

No, 'fraid not, anyone already there grandfathered for life.
I thought it was a steaming pile of crap. I am not really fond of films which display extreme and gratuidous violence. There was no plot at all.

Well you have to pick and hunt, a bit like finding the hard centres in a box of chocs lol
So that means we get to poke them until we can see what's in the middle? That has possibilities!
I really liked Forrest Gump. My list includes:
West Side Story Bye Bye Birdie Shawshank Redemption Sense and Sensibility Spy Game Vanilla Sky
And this list gets very, very long. I can watch movies over and over. I don't dislike GWTW, but it's very over acted. I guess in that day and time acting WAS over the top.
I can think of some outstanding actors.
Phillip Seymour Hoffman (not just because he won the Oscar this year) Merril Streep Rachel Weicz James Woods Sean Penn (he may be the best actor in current history) Edward Norton
And again, a very long list of outstanding actors.
Have you seen Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind? Very good.
But I said it is. Who is right? I guess people should see it for themselves and decide. Do you have any idea what that story was based on other than violence and making light of assasinating one another?
Yes, I forgot who posted the term romp, no offense meant. However, someone said I always say black when the whole newsgroup says white. While that may be true, in this case it is not because you are the only one I saw who said they liked it. THAT was my point.
Oh my gosh yes! Also:
Gary Sinise (sp?) Robert DiNiro Scarlet Johannsen Bill Murry
This is truly endless.
They did earn their place on death row, I can't say my sympathies go out to them, not before their victims who in many cases probably died horrible deaths.
Sharon does not live, nor does she pretend to, in an Ivory Tower. I don't think I have ever heard her saying how much she has, how wonderful her garden is, blah de blah. She does have a lovely property, her husband has race horses, they are a lovely couple and I don't know why you feel the need to slam her.
Traditionally, old ladies used to poke them with their knitting needles lol
Spew!!!!
Hard ones are good to find!
