"Without full approval of the board"

In an Oct. 15, 2009, post on friendsofchapel.blogspot.com:
"I recall when I was membership chair; I was expressly prohibited of sending any correspondence of ANY sort without full approval of the board."

This statement was included in an angry red-inked letter in which the author takes the Chapel's Board of Trustees to task for recent decisions. There is an incredible irony with this statement.

The letter writer is part of the "friendsofchapel" group, yet they specifically, strongly make the statement above that they were "expressly prohibited of sending any correspondence of ANY sort without full approval of the board" while serving as membership chair.

But isn't that exactly what this group has done in the act of using a questionably obtained Chapel mailing list, then sending out "PROXIES" to confuse the membership? Proxies are the purview of the Board of Trustees, not a splinter group.
