My First Diary

Given the overwhelming number of laws we are all subject to, it just doesn't seem like 14 rules in the Code of Official Conduct are enough.
Especially since none appear to address bigotry or just plain stupidity.

Still looking.....HELP teacherken!

Also, by definition: (with comments)

re-+call

1. To cancel, take back, or revoke (an election).

2. To bring back; restore (sanity)

3. A signal, such as a bugle call, used to summon troops back to their posts (voters).

4. The ability to remember information or experiences (macaca).

5. a. The procedure by which a public official may be removed from office by popular vote.
  b. The right to employ this procedure.

6. A request by the manufacturer (voters) of a product (Congressman) that has been identified as defective to return it, as for necessary repairs or adjustments (and replacement).

And I will add one of my own:

7.  A demand by voters to remove an elected official who is an embarrassment to himself and others.....
Won't bore you with all 14 rules as only the first might possibly be applicable....better minds than mine can just "google" for them all.
