George:
As usual you have decided to distort the story. I would have expected a much
more mature and objective analysis from you, but you have decided to hold your
job of being an errand boy /Webmaster to the GRO.
For you to say that the Fugitivz deserted us is a clear indication that you are
either being misinformed, or you have absolutely no idea what AGCO is all
about.To also dare say the crowd was at Cleveland tells me that you did not come
to any of our parties. Mr. Sarr, are you aware of the term "Principle" and
"Doing the right thing"
I have been part of the July Fourth for several years, and this is one sucessful
July Fourth that I am proud to be part of. Mr George, have you attended any of
our programs ?
Mr Sarr, the only true statemednt you have uttered is that the community is not
interested in a divided July Fourth, and AGCO will go the extra mile to
reinforce....Inclusion and Making a difference. Maybe, this is an opportunity
for people like you to be part of the solution, rathe r than hiding behind the
blinds
