[nagdu] If you don't like the policies

[Buddy Brannan]

Hi Bertha,

I couldn't disagree more. It is absolutely *incumbent* on "good NFB members" to question policy. Some would have it that NFB members are just robots, taking orders from on high without question or thought. While we certainly have our share of such members, I would submit that this is exactly what we *don't* want. You show me the NFB member (or anyone, for that matter) who agrees with absolutely every organizational policy, and I'll show you a person who has stopped thinking.
