The rift arose when Michael Khodarkovsky, President of the Kasparov
Chess Foundation, decided that since he was paying for it, he should
be the team captain. Susan Polgar was demanding an exorbitant amount
for her services. This led to an immediate break-down in relations
between Susan Polgar and the Kasparov Chess Foundation and resulted in
dozens of attacks posted by Paul Truong against the "illegal contract"
between the Kasparov Chess Foundation and the USCF.

Not exactly accurate

The issue here is that the USCF Voters were not allowed to know about
the serious rift between the Susan Polgar Foundation and the Kasparov
Chess Foundation because the USCF Issues Forum is heavily censored.
Had the voters known about this and several other major issues,
perhaps the results of the election might have been different.

Then I guess you think no one reads anything you write. You were
braying about this for months before the election. Do you really
suffer from pseudologica fantastica, or are you lying about it?

I was writing about that any other topics here. However, this group
was flooded with postings by the Fake Sam Sloan, so few were going to
dig down and get to my real posts.

It was over on the USCF Issues Forum at
http://main.uschess.org/forums/viewforum.php?f=5

That is where the voters were and we were not allowed to inform the
voters about these issues because of censorship.

Then how is it that I and most other readers of the USCF Forums know
all about it? Between you and ... well, maybe not your supporters, but
other Polgar-haters, this stuff was common knowledge. The voters
tossed you out with the trash anyway.

When will you realize that, while you may be able to edit the content
of your diseased brain, you can't change reality?

You are a chess politico who has been around forever. You edit a chess
magazine in Southern California and are in touch with Hanken and other
politicos.

However, most voters know little or nothing about this. Many voted
just on the basis of campaign statements published in Chess Life. They
would hardly be expected to know about the serious problems with
everything involving Susan Polgar going back for the past 23 years.
They would not know that the problems Polgar has been creating here
are almost identical to the problems she created back in Hungary
before she got here.

Or... even your own problems, which go back even further?

Pushing the limits of the game to involve more players, eliminating
gender-bias from the inside, by actually encouraging self esteem in young
women, as if they were people too?

Those sort of problems?

People are terrified that the precious balance of the status quo will be
upset, that new criteria will apply, and a necessary transparency in chess
governance will actually be carried out rather than suggested - that the
USCF will actually do something to justify its existence, rather than
continue to decline like a private member's club for the old boys.

Those factors are very serious problems only for those who like it the way
it is now. And those people talk about SPICE and KCF exploring their
individual paths forward as a 'rift', since it ain't a monolithic approach,
which in their opinion should run everything [down].

BB and Chessville have no journalistic credibility what-so-ever. BB's
buddy Kelly Atkins is chumming with Susie in Texas. From Susie's Blog
with a lovely photo of Susie and Kelly

"This is Mr. Kelly Atkins, one of the editors and forum host at
chessville.com. He will be visiting SPICE and Texas Tech today to do an
exclusive behind the scene college chess report. Many people hear about
the incredible success of SPICE in a very short period of time. But how
do we do it? After this visit, Kelly will report the behind the scene
secret of success of SPICE and its plans in the future."
