Two weeks ago, I stood up a public forum and demanded
an honest to God public forum; a forum where the leadership of
the APS would stand up and answer legitimate questions;
candidly, forthrightly and honestly.
Winston Brooks led us to believe that, that opportunity would
present itself if only I went to one of his “district conversation”
meetings.
I did, and he didn’t.
I went to the meeting to ask a legitimate question.
He didn’t provide an opportunity for me to ask the question;
he did not make an effort to be candid, forthright, and honest.
There is only one reason that Winston Brooks could have for
refusing to respond candidly, forthrightly and honestly to
legitimate questions.
Winston Brooks wants to hide the truth from stakeholders.
Winston Brooks will not entertain questions about corruption
and incompetence in the leadership of the APS, because
Winston Brooks does not want stakeholders to know the truth
about corruption and incompetence in the leadership of the APS.
More importantly, Winston Brooks does not want stakeholders
to know the names of the corrupt and the incompetent
in the leadership of the APS.
Winston Brooks does not want stakeholders to know what
he does with corruption and incompetence when he finds them.
Winston Brooks does not want stakeholders to know the truth
about what he does with the corrupt and the incompetent
when he finds them.
The longer Winston Brooks hides the truth,
the more it looks like he is protecting the good ol’ boys from
accountability for their corruption and their incompetence.
Sooner or later, Winston Brooks will have to tell the truth.
Sooner or later, Winston Brooks will stand up to legitimate
questions and provide candid, forthright, and honest answers.
And when he finally does, not only will he have to tell the truth
about the abject lack of standards and accountability in
the leadership of the APS, but he will also have to tell the truth
about why he has refused to tell the truth, heretofore.
What good and ethical reason is there to keep corruption and
incompetence secret from stakeholders?
What good and ethical reason is there to keep the names of
the corrupt and the incompetent secret from stakeholders?

Why won’t Winston Brooks simply tell the truth?

Is he learning to "do a little sidestep"? What do you know!
The new boss, same as the old boss, we just got fooled again! Yeah, yeah.
We just got fooled again.
Duplicity and quadruple standards all around. What goes on in Houston STAYS in Houston, just like those meetings for ACE.
They say the real Illuminati meet in California every year or so. They determine what we Hoi Polloi will be paying for gas, who will be assasinated, who will be turned over to the lesser authorities for "Justice".
Our local version for schools is the ACE Conference, and secret meetings of any sort where the powerful determine public policy with no input at all from those they serve.
They used to call that Taxation without Representation", right? Well, I say "Don't Tread on Me."
