Here's a partial answer for you Hound. We had an executive coaching/recruiting firm take an anonymous poll asking the question, "Who in the company demonstrates the best leadership?" 100% of the respondents picked my name. You see, people are looking for leadership, not community agitating, waffling, vacationing and teleprompter reading. And I can tell you I am very inclusive in my leadership. For example, when we recently hired a new General Counsel I left the final decision to my three company Presidents. They did not pick my number one choice and guess who got the job? Their choice.

As for my family, I have been married for 26 years to a very strong, intelligent and beatiful woman and we communicate well and make decisions together. My children and I are very close and their friends love to hang around with me because I am fun and engaged with what they are doing. We eat dinner together almost every night and my children are very involved with their faith. While I am nowhere near a perfect father I work hard at it every day. So your characterization of me, like your post about the Agitator in Chief's vacation, is wrong.

So you see Hound, the only time I get irritated is when you challenge my facts without even bothering to check them, you are just wrong, then when I prove it beyond a shadow of a doubt and you still can't apologize, all you can do is attack me. How about trying something that requires courage and intellectual honesty for a change like, "OK MM, you are right, he was going on vacation. I should have checked your facts before I posted what I did"? That would be a change for you.
