A Time To Do What Is Right

I would like to introduce myself as Jimmy Integrity,

As pompous as that may sound, I can honestly say with a contrite heart that for many years I have helped maintain the ASUC as it stands now. Through my work and effort I have helped people enter the ASUC in the hope that those people would change the face and politic of the ASUC. I stand corrected. As we have seen in recent years the ASUC, my ASUC, has become an embarrassment. I am embarrassed by the institution that represents the students of this fine university, and I am embarrassed by the actions of the ASUC.

The ASUC stands now as a corrupt, negligent, and wasteful organization that remains non-responsive to the demands of the student body of the University of California Berkeley. It has defecated on the ideals of diversity and democracy.

A wise man once said that when government becomes corrupt, negligent, and irresponsive to the community it serves, it is the right of the people to overturn that government.

The way it stands, students have the right to overturn the ASUC. And I consider it my responsibility, because of my actions in maintaining the ASUC, to give students reasons and rationale to rid the university of this terrible institution. Finally, I choose to no longer to feed the monster.

It is time for me to do what is right. I shall provide reason and rationale to the revolution. I shall sharpen the sword to slay the beast with my words. And I shall leave it to you, the students to be the heroes.

Dude. Seriously. If you want to make change, you need a name. If you want a whinefest... hey, have at it.

HB, if you're going to quote from an article, then quote it correctly. I had to read your sentence about 5 times before I gave up and just clicked the link.

There's a time and place for flowery, poetic language. Starting a revolution is one of those times. It just isn't the same if you talk normally.

starting a revolution?

psh, this whole campaign is even more bullshit than the ASUC itself. There maybe a few of you out there who have some sort of personal grudge against SA or CS, but the majority of Cal students just don't care. They don't even care about the money, just look at what happened last spring.
