PGR leadership falls short of the mark...

I love a pithy quote. I use them often to send a point home or express a point of view.

Apparently the following quote is circulating on social media pages of Patriot Guard state leadership and board of directors. I can envision them patting themselves on the back and nodding sagely as they stroke one another's egos. Having enough on our plate, we are not actively trolling for misleading banalities but we will not reject what is offered by those who may indulge in freelance trolling.

Leadership when craved will always be faulty. Leadership as a means of service to others will never result from a desire to be out front but from a desire to see a thing done right.

Hmmm... I guess one could surmise that PGR leadership likes the sound of context that alludes to excellent leadership while failing to grasp the concept of what actually IS good leadership.

The phrase, a desire to see a thing done right... gave me pause when I consider how badly the case of Ted Frosty Foster vs PGR has been handled from the get-go, from the complete and utter disregard for due process to the disservice done to a respected veteran and the membership as well as the organization. The only thing done right by leadership and the BoD at this juncture is the massive wrong done to the innocent as they stand united and obstinately silent in blatant and despicable character assassination based on lies and slander.

Otherwise, in my humble opinion the integrity of PGR leadership from the lowliest of north Texas Red River region ride captains to the president of the BoD has been weighed and measured on the scales of truth and found decidedly wanting in credibility.

Here's another pithy quote:

Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored. -- Aldous Huxley, Complete Essays 2, 1926-29
