If they aren't careful, the IBT will be asking, "For whom the bell tolls?" and the answer will be, "it tolls for the IBT!"

Unfortunately, the way the system works, you can't get rid of them.

As Henny Youngman would say, "take my IBT, please."

The IBT, "you can't live with them and you can't kill them."

You can get rid of them. Just refuse to pay the dues. The club fails and maybe a new club will reemerge. That's what I did after just being a member for one year. After listening to last years meetings in Georgia it was obvious the IBT hadn't a clue. And I could not justify the majority of my dues going to the IBT and not the local unit.

Jelly-Belly even makes a Pop-Corn flavored Jelly Bean. One of my favorites!

Bob has stellar credentials and many years of service in the WBCCI. I think the post "Who is Bob Thompson" really shows the level of commitment the region 1 president has and the degree that his integrity can be trusted. I want to read more when available. I support Bob and I want to hear what he has to say and offer. I have no doubt that this whistle blower issue is based on fact and it will move members to action concerned with real ethics.

All this bulls**t for a camping club. Somebody needs to get a life. We are glad we have a MH and belong to the FMCA. We were just getting ready to join the WBCCI again. Maybe we should put in the by-laws no ex military or school administrators can serve on the IBT. This seems to be where all the trouble is coming from.
Let me repeat(WE ARE AN AIRSTREAM CAMPING AND CARAVAN CLUB) no less, no more.

I don't see where "ex military" comes into play here.

If you are not a member now and have no intention of rejoining, where does all of this "WE" business come from?

Just need some clarification here.

Does this mean that you DO see where "school administrators" comes into play?

bfred,
School Administrators? What does that have to do with anything? Did I miss an inside joke here? Maybe school administrators thought freedom of speech was a good idea and military people guarantee YOU have the right to an opinion and the ability to express it. Some of us dedicate our lives to make sure the next generation has the ability, education, desire and freedom to choose a better life and career. How about they ban retired crane operators?

Sounds like we have issues with authority figures. I sure do.

I say we exclude anyone with an i in their name. Tends to foster a sense of self importance.
