  Obviously the Police Union representing Crowely is not satisfied. And I have yet to see any news article stating the officer himself is satisfied. And so far Obama has yet to say he actually apologized during whatever conversation he said he had with the officer only that he had one.

  Why is it so hard for him to admit he was wrong with this one? And not with some double speak about a teachable moment garbage.

  Why is it to much to ask that he publicly apologize to someone he publicly insulted? I find it amusing that for someone who goes around apologizing for all Americans ad infinitum and very publicly, now refuses to apologize for himself having wronged someone, or at least to make it public.

  And while we are at in my case asking that he clearly and without mincing words admit he was wrong about the surge which is something I was a direct part of, and poured of alot of myself into making a success. I mean since we can only expect for him to admit fault and recieve recognition as such when we have directly been slighted.

  But I will not hold my breath.

  with renia now gone i feel more confident to tell my story without being belittled.

  i don't want to drone on and on, as having read alot of the experiances on here i find i have alot in comman with everyone.

  so i thought i'd just give a short run down of the reasons why i've ended up here.

  You know funny you make that observation Yknot becuase mine is the exact same. Almost all the high profile children in the Congregation, who were the most well looked upon and given alot of attention and "privileges" were the worst offenders of the double life syndrome. While the meeker, quieter ones who got looked over were usually the ones alot closer to actually living the life the WTS said we should all have strived for. They often would get away with things to when caught red handed with things like fornication with worldy girls, smoking, doing drugs, underage drinking, got away with it either by having it swept under the rug or merely getting away with a PR and most in the Cong would forgive all. But let a quiet low profile one do something even remotely the same, and if they didn't get DF'ed and manage to get the PR they usually got the treatment of a DF'ed person anyways so it didnt make any difference.

  Oh no doubt Undercover. That whole issue was one of the tipping points for me. Becuase of how close the end was I made several life altering decisions based on the faulty time line, theorizing, and out right fabrication of the WTS and then to back track on it to basically making it an infinite deadline was alot to take. I just wish I would have known what I know now.

  I thought they already side stepped this problem with the "New Light" that it would be that the generation being refered to was anyone who felt the effects of the events of 1914 would not pass away before the end.

  Or has that been revised again?

  He shouldn't have made the comment becuase he was wrong. The cops did not behave stupidly.

  But I guess The Chosen One is always right even when he is wrong. Quite the cult of personality he has built up in such a short time.

  And oh yeah The Chosen One was also wrong about the surge. It worked. I know becuase I was there as part of it.

  I am leaning to the big PR push side by the WTS in conjunction with a big rallying cry to the rank and file. Its fairly easy to put out press releases and since the print media is hurting for stories to fill up space they will be more than glad to pick up on it. I have gotten several calls from relatives about a big, exciting, emergency accouncement at the DC that I really really need to attend. Sounds like they are getting all whipped up about something but more than likely its the same old nonsense.

  Your feelings make perfect sense. I can see some of your story in my own. I have been rebuilding for years now and though I feel I have made good progress there are still some lingering pains. It gets easier it really does. And it is never to late to start making your life more the way you would like it.

  I joined the Army. I went back to college. And though the family situation is not what I would like, I have hopes there too. I did all this in my mid-30's. Oh how I wish I had those late teen early twenties years back. I know my knees and back do.
