Character Counts! heavy hitters?

link

The Albuquerque Character Counts page on web
has been pulled down;

I would assume out of embarrassment,
or upon the advice of their lawyers;
in order to hide evidence.

In any case,
there will be a Character Counts Conference at
the Marriott, Thursday and Friday, April 17 & 18.

It strikes me that holding the Character Counts
convention in Albuquerque,
the home of APS' Character Counts Gate,
is a little like the Baptists holding a convention in
Las Vegas, Nevada.
But, I digress.

During this convention of the heavy hitters in world of
character and courage and honor;

will they even discuss the fact that the local
character counts leadership has renounced the
Pillars of Character Counts not only as their personal
standard of conduct, but as the standard
of conduct and competence for their public service
as well?

I assume that at ninety bucks a head,
there will be some heavy hitters there.

What does a heavy hitter look like in the world
where character counts?

We don't know.

So far they look like Paula Maes, the President of
the Character Counts Leadership Council,
who has renounced the Pillars of Character Counts
as her standard of conduct and competence as the
senior most role model of the student standard of
conduct.

So far they look like Pete Domenici
a United States Senator,
who is ignoring cries for help from his founding child.

So far they look the Character Counts Leadership Council
a bunch of cowards who refuse to identify themselves.

So far they look like Mayor Marty Chavez
who will attend functions as one the founding fathers
of Character Counts!

but who hasn't balls enough to stand up to Paula Maes
and Modrall.


Will we ever see one?

Is there even one "leader"
with the courage and the character to hold themselves
accountable for their courage and their character

for eight measly hours a day?
