More Real Truth






Click on image to enlarge.
Marymount College's Measure P's supporters don't want you to know the real truth behind their quest for a new municipal code specifically designed and orchestrated for the sole benefit of Marymount College at the exclusion of all other businesses and residents in the city of Rancho Palos Verdes.

Mailers continue to be delivered with partial truths and even some fiction placed for reading.

I think it is fair and reasonable to post more real truths about Measure P, The Marymount Plan and The Marymount College Facilities Expansion Project which has already been approved and could begin construction on if only Marymount decided to begin.

Marymount's quest to keep voters misinformed or ill informed is not something I feel an institution of higher learning should do.

When someone with only a high school education can run circles around a College President's 'facts' backed up by a Board of Trustees that seem unwilling or unable to stop these foul types of mailers from Marymount College, it should seem remarkable how badly their campaigning truly is.

I can shoot holes through Marymount's statements and their claims of facts so easily now it is just like using a cork rifle on rubber ducks in a bathtub, it appears.

If these highly educated individuals continue to produce misinformation, deceptive advertising, incomplete facts, and other maladies associated with a desperate campaign to gain something that is squarely in opposition to our city's General Plan and opposed by so many citizens of Rancho Palos Verdes, what does that say about the potential of receiving a great education at Marymount College, one that students could really come away from being proud of their institution?

Officials representing Marymount seem to be setting an example to their students of the types of campaigning that people like Haldeman and Erlichmann did when the two of them attended college.

When institutions who have a great responsibility to use the whole truth and facts to educate young people instead use words and deeds similar to what we have witnessed since the first prepatory papers were gathered that begun what led to Measure P, what might that say about wealthier parents' wishes in sending their precious children to and institution of that type?

So as we are now within the last two weeks prior to the voting, please note what Marymount has produced and will produce in the way of propaganda supportive of a change in the General Plan of the city of Rancho Palos Verdes without careful guidance by either the Rancho Palos Verdes Planning Commission or the City Council.
