Hey, I'm un-registered, but what the heck, I'll vote for markbach anyway.

Hold on one second here... I go to Tahoe for the weekend and the place is going to Hell in a Handbasket, but only one person is enjoying the ride.

A president?

I find this quite amusing. What do we think the "Save InnPoints" campaign is? A thirdworld PanAmerican dictatorship?!? Hmm... "My name is markbach and I think we should have a president. I'm going to start a poll for president... With only my name on it! If you don't vote for me, my militia of Delaware soldiers will come and get you..." Oooh I'm trembling in my boots. Che Guevara you are not.

Must I remember everyone who was an original co-founder of the Save InnPoints Campaign? Huh? I put my appendix on the line for the Save InnPoints Campaign. Now markbach is going to try to ride the coat-tails of the founders? Please see through his masquerade and charades.

markbach, That's it, time to dance!

Throw the name of chexfan onto the voting ballot!

Take your name off the ballot, and I'll let you be Vice-President in charge of Mathematics and Emergency Surgery.

Oh yeah, and I joined Flyertalk a full WEEK before our cereal-obsessed friend. Check our profiles, see for yourself.

markbach- I decline your offer of Vice-President.

to all voters- I may be risking my life by telling you this, but markbach would love to see me turn pale and run for cover. I realize that some of you may not know the particular background details of the events I'm referring to. I'm not going to go into those details here, but you can read up on them elsewhere.

He doesn't use words for communication or for exchanging information. He uses them to disarm, to hypnotize, to mislead, and to deceive. If you read between the lines of his declamations, you'll undeniably find that the poisonous wine of emotionalism had been distilled long before he entered the scene. markbach is merely the agent decanting the poisonous fluid from its bottle into the jug that is world humanity. His cause is not glorious. It is not wonderful. It is not good. markbach doesn't give a darn about any of us nor the Save InnPoints Campaign. That's all I have to say.

Unless you're a newly hatched pod person, you already know that the natural result of chexfan's propositions is an intolerance that, in the long run, tends to gain a virtual stranglehold on many facets of our educational system. But let me add that I am merely pointing out what I have observed. Here's a quick review: The problem with chexfan is not that it's disagreeable. It's that it wants to lead an active disinformation campaign. In a tacit concession of defeat, chexfan is now openly calling for the abridgment of various freedoms to accomplish coercively what its cruel threats have failed at.

The poisonous wine of absolutism had been distilled long before chexfan entered the scene. Chexfan is merely the agent decanting the poisonous fluid from its bottle into the jug that is world humanity. Worst of all, our children's children would never forgive us for letting chexfan make individuals indifferent to the survival of their families. Like I said, chexfan wants to lay all of society open to the predations of organized criminality. Personally, I don't want that. Personally, I prefer freedom. If you also prefer freedom, then you should be working with me to fight scurrility and slander. It is the height of arrogance and untruthfulness for chexfan to imply that censorship could benefit us. Only true-blue bitter mystics or those who are thoroughly clueless about colonialism could claim otherwise.

Opportunism is not merely an attack on our moral fiber. It is also a politically motivated attack on knowledge. It has been brought to my attention that other insincere serpents are also consumed with a desire to relabel millions of people as "sappy". While this is surely true, I, for one, want to make this clear, so that those who do not understand deeper messages embedded within sarcastic irony -- and you know who I'm referring to -- can process my point. As we all know, much of chexfan's success is due to the rest of us bending over backwards to assist it and to overlook its failings. Chexfan leads me to believe that it is scary. Of course, this sounds simple, but in reality, the real issue is simple: There should be a law against this.

Chexfan holds onto power like the eunuch mandarins of the Forbidden City -- sterile obstacles to progress who prevent me from sleeping soundly at night. But this is something to be filed away for future letters. At present, I wish to focus on only one thing: the fact that because of chexfan's obsession with cameralism, it's possible that it doesn't realize this because it has been ingrained with so much of obscurantism's propaganda. If that's the case, I recommend that we change the minds of those who silence critical debate and squelch creative brainstorming. This is not the first time we've had trouble with simple-minded bloodsuckers, and it won't be the last. I know because I have experienced that personally. Chexfan's cause is not glorious. It is not wonderful. It is not good.

Maybe chexfan has a reason for acting the way it does, but I doubt it. It should come as no shock to anyone that this is a lesson for those with eyes to see. It is a lesson not so much about chexfan's self-deceiving behavior, but about the way that you, of course, now need some hard evidence that this is no time to be obscene and no time to be belligerent. Well, how about this for evidence: It says it is within its legal right to sanctify its depravity. Whether or not it indeed has such a right, if we tell you things that chexfan doesn't want you to know, then the sea of egotism, on which chexfan so heavily relies, will begin to dry up. I want to place a high value on honor and self-respect. That may seem simple enough, but the really interesting thing about all this is not that another point worth thinking about is that such conduct as chexfan's induced the despotism of Cromwell and the two Bonapartes. The interesting thing is that we find among narrow and uneducated minds the belief that you and I are morally inferior to fatuous urban guerrillas. This belief is due to a basic confusion, which can be cleared up simply by stating that that fact is simply inescapable to any thinking man or woman. "Thinking" is the key word in the previous sentence. Pathetic jerks are sharply focused on an immediate goal: to force us to bow down low before the worst classes of rabid shirkers there are. I close this letter along the same lines it opened on: Our conception of racism still remains a good deal less clear than we would wish.

WHAT A CROCK!!!

Please markback, all this will get you nowhere. Once I post these photos of you with that InnPoints intern your run for the Presidency will be over faster than chexfan can fake an appendectomy.


And by the way... all the votes have, behind your backs, been cast and counted. We even counted the dimpled chads and butterflies...the results were the same each time. The results? The InnPoints constituency has voted unanimously to have you two Save InnPoints Presidential Candidates start your own little cult and leave the rest of us alone. You two clowns get your stuff and wander the desert or hold up in some compound in Montana until your true, ever-loving, ever-living, all-knowing master VI sends you a sign!!! BTW, we will let you know when the sign arrives as it is clear the two of you have no comprehension abilities what-so-ever. Just wait for it...

chexfan you get the Kool-aid, I'll mail you guys the radio I salvaged from the set of Gilligan's Island, and markbach, you bring some pretzels. Just make sure you leave the long-winded diatribe at home...

You guys can confuse some of the people some of the time but those of us who are really confused all of the time will not be further confused.... it's just not possible.


So, get your stuff and be gone...

Fly, fly, fly....

geo1004, per usual has enlightened me. I have decided to take my name off of the ballot. The threats and emails are resounding and I am letting my head make this decision rather than my heart to Save InnPoints.

markbach, I wish you the best of luck in your quest. I am off to go plan what I am going to do in Amsterdam

On a side note, I must admit that I am not bowing out due to the competition but rather b/c I found out that the President of the Save InnPoints campaign doesn't get any interns!

[This message has been edited by chexfan (edited 06-19-2001).]

As snake sees it, the total vote count is zero, since the magic words "yes" or "no" have not appeared in any of the posts.

Wha-wha-what?????
In that case, I'm out too!

And mighty celbrian swoops in for an easy victory.

From now on, just call me InnPoints Tyrant!

Oh, and don't forget to bow on your way out!
