Get ready for some possible bombshells! Sharpin' pitchforks. Is that a threat bob? Being an attorney yourself, you should know that witnesses are sworn to tell the truth on the stand. Why does the truth frighten you so much? What are you and the other SB members trying to hide? Speaking of truth, I heard that JC possibly impeached herself on the stand yesterday. What a great quality to have in a SB president. |

Christine Vickers is not so much a threat as a disgrace.
Here is an elected official who was granted office specifically to represent the residents of the district to achieve the highest quality of education for their children, now explicitly undermining progress in acquiring school facilities that were overwhelmingly supported by those same residents that she was elected to represent.
Any thing she does acting on behalf of the Brach Brodie estate rather than the district will only serve to delay proceedings and artificially inflate the ultimate settlement price. Ask yourself, is this what we as residents really want our board members to do? (undermine the district and the direction given by the majority of residents)
Yes, I believe "impeach" is indeed an appropriate word for you to introduce into this thread dpc, However I believe you may have used it in regards to the wrong board member.

dpc - bob's comment didn't sound like a threat to me - it sounded like a reality check. CV has been known to struggle with the facts before, have difficulty understanding proceedings, and aligned herself with the CFO. If her testimony is given in the same manner that she has struggled to understand the facts before, and if this gets in the way of building the 3rd high school that the majority of the public agrees they want built, then I think we have a right to "sharpen the pitchforks," as she will have fallen down on her duty to properly represent the people that elected her.
Regarding JC, you state "Speaking of truth" I "heard" (doesn't sound like truth to me) that she "possibly" (again, truth?) perjured herself. Then you go on to make a comment about her "quality" as a school board president, based on what you "heard" and "possibly". I don't think there is anyone on this board who wouldn't agree that JC should be properly handled within the law if there has been any infraction, but to say you are "speaking of truth," is a gross misrepresentation at this point.

I also would like to know how her testimony was impeached...do you have details? No details just yet. Heard from someone who attended the hearing that there was a discussion among both sides with the judge about parts of JC's testimony that may have impeached some of her earlier deposition. Don't know the final outcome but will let you know if I hear anything else. |

Metaphorically (to keep DPC from getting all riled up)getting the pitchfork ready if this turn out to be true.

dpc - bob's comment didn't sound like a threat to me - it sounded like a reality check. Sorry but the words "sharpen your pitchforks" sound like a threat to me. Again I ask...do you want CV to lie on the stand? I am so tired of all of you on this board blaming CV for everything. You are all nervous that the BB land might fall through and setting the stage to blame CV. Why not give credit where it is due--mainly with JC, MM, HC and the SD attorneys. They've been at this much longer than CV and are the driving forces behind every major SD issue. But I guess it's easier to look beyond the truth and blame others. |

Never said she is going to lie and I hope she doesn't. But, she is going to interpret what the SB did.
Going from her past history where she couldn't even follow the final boundary meeting and constantly has to read off of prepared notes (possibly written by someone else), her interpretation is far from cannon law of what happened.

Bottom line - Christine Vickers was elected to represent the people. The people have spoken, the third high school was overwhelmingly approved, apparently Christine can't hear or understand this. Why do you think she is the only board member who has been called to testify other than the board president? Seems she inserted herself in here to represent her own interests. (Well the interests of whomever tells her whatever). No one blames Christine for anything, seems she has no problem constantly making her own "news" by representing an opinion that the majority of people do not support, and as I recall, it took the majority to elect her to office.
Quite frankly, I could care less about where this school is built, as long as it is built. Being nervous about the BB land falling through is a non-issue for me. Integrity is what I'm concerned about, and CV has none.

This is a common legal tactic....does not mean anything other than something she may have said in Deposition contradicted with something she said on the stand or elsewhere.
Does not mean she perjured herself, it could, but it also could be a recollection lapse etc.dpc - bob's comment didn't sound like a threat to me - it sounded like a reality check.

I personally would love to see BB gone, but still see the need for the 3rd HS, just not there. The problem is we elected this group to do what is needed for the SD and this is the best they could come up with, so I have to accept it, for now, and work to replace the problems at the appropriate times.
right now CV is the biggest problem
