Order please

OUT OF ORDER” 

“YOU’RE OUT OF ORDER!”  “YOU’RE OUT OF ORDER!”  “SIT DOWN, YOU’RE OUT OF ORDER!”  “YOU’RE DISRUPTIVE . . . YOU‘RE OUT OF ORDER!”  “IF YOU DON’T SIT DOWN, I MAY HAVE TO CALL IN THE PBSO, BECAUSE YOU’RE OUT OF ORDER!”

If you’re a fairly educated, sensible, and reasonable person, -- you would have to admit that the UCO President, David Israel, doesn’t know how to react to anyone who has an opposing view.  Israel, like a dictatorial brat, doesn’t have the even-tempered vocabulary that would allow him to employ reasonable tactics when addressing people.  Rather than “talk” to you, he takes the position of not wanting to hear the story from a different angle, never wanting to know how mistaken he may be.
Yet, I cannot understand why most of the Delegates sit there and don’t do or say anything about the totally non-acceptable words of a tyrannical bureaucrat.  If a Delegate is an understanding person, a reasonably intelligent person, he or she can see before their very eyes that this is a man who is not really a man, but rather acting like a spoiled adolescent; a President who does not know the first thing about being a President; a ruler who chooses to use confusing words to try and convince the lay person of his superior intellect and appeal.

If you were to spend an hour or two going through the Robert’s Rules of Order, 11th Edition, you would clearly understand and realize that it is Mr. Israel who is clearly “OUT OF ORDER.”  But, Israel is so bloody self-centered that he would even find the Robert’s Rules of Order “OUT OF ORDER.”
Imagine for one moment, President Obama at a news conference before fifty people who may have opposing views of the administration and have a flood of comments and questions, and the President says to an inquirer, ”YOU’RE OUT OF ORDER,” “SIT DOWN, YOU’RE OUT OF ORDER.”  The President’s credibility as Commander-In-Chief would become zero minus, and the word “impeachment” would probably make headlines.
  
Just recently, I took a new unit owner, a new friend, to the last Delegate’s Meeting.  He is a president and CEO of a fairly large corporation.  He said – “Tell me that man is President only because nobody else wanted the job.”  He also said “He’s way out of control.  He obviously doesn’t know the role of a President who has about 350 members on his Board of Directors.”  It was embarrassing for me to show him first-hand our administrative leadership.
However, when your head is so big that you can’t see your shoulders; when you have control of the microphone; when you have the gavel; when all the spotlights shine upon you; when you are on stage; when you’re in the center chair flanked on either side by 4 or 5 subordinates; when you’re talking down to somebody . . . literally; when you control the UCO Reporter; when you control Channel 63; when you control all Committees; when you control all  UCO functions; and control, control and control, - - that control is what allows you, Israel, to make the statement; “SIT DOWN – YOU’RE OUT OF ORDER,” and get away with it.  Sensible people would tell you to either act in a professional, responsible manner, or you’re history.  Sensible people might say to themselves “How did we let this happen?”

From what you have posted on your Private Blog, Mr. Israel, i.e. copying numerous postings of My Village Blogger, why not copy this posting also?  Oh yeah, you might say “YOU’RE OUT OF ORDER.”

  2. Good observation, Mr. Eduardo. It seems to me (and I hate to say this), that anyone who disagrees with Dave is Out of Order. I think Dave needs an NSA tune-up. Personally, I like the man, but I think this president's job has gotten the better of him. If he's smart, I think that the vice presidents taking turns should run the Delegates Meetings, and the words " You're Out of Order will gradually fade."
