Run on sentences are a great way to prove points.

I hate the word arbitrary now.

I can believe it.

Rather than recognizing that the PFC allocation process is completely arbitrary and broken, Diego prefers mocking his fellow board members with personal attacks. I cannot believe this person represents the University of Oregon on a national level for the United States Student Association (USSA)…. how embarrassing (and arbitrary).

I’m on #34 now. I still need help understanding Diego’s argument. Help! ?

True, true. For all we know, it may not even be possible to best Gulley at his own game. I spoke in haste.

C’mon Ford, practice what you preach… aren’t Gulley comparisons also the kind of accusations you shouldn’t throw around lightly?

I was at the meeting where Boye said “And don’t even get me started on the race issue.” It was disgusting. Accusations of racisms shouldn’t be thrown around lightly, and if he actually thinks that some of the senators are being racist, he should DO something about it rather than just make vague threats that coincide with his political objectives.

I really don’t like him. It seems to me he has replaced Gully as least-classy Senator.

Why do student government leaders get paid a stipend to produce this kind of crap? There needs to recourse (or recall) for Diego…

You were off by a day! It was Jan 30 at the law school.

I can’t stop reading this letter, just finished with try #23. I still can’t make sense of Diego’s argument. Anyone? Help?

I wasn’t aware that commas and periods were interchangeable. Fascinating!

I still have a chance then. You have a date when that happened?

This was not the first time this year a senator called another senator racist. Patrick Boye called Kate Jones, Billy Hatch and Steven Wilsey racist for arguing against a NALSA surplus request a few weeks ago.

“We might as well have robots or computers calculating budgets for each group.”

Now that you mention it… what a fantastic idea!

It wasn’t printed today because the ODE has standards for writing, and specific journalism ethics prevent them from editing it beyond recognition (which in this case, would be basically required to make sense or even a coherent argument from the letter).

How’d you get a hold of that letter?

Don’t worry, it’s going into the next issue too (cleaned up a little of course). Out Friday!

Well, it *is* posted on the blog…
