Reply #85: Time bomb

I agree.

Getting these machines STOPPED, or at least held accountable, has been my ONLY goal all along. I don't give a rats a** who gets the credit, OR the money.

I don't see Bev as "the Enemy"... But since Bev, for better or worse, is our most public face on this issue, I hate to see her demonizing and lying about other activists. And that is exactly what she has been doing. Bev asked for proof that she'd falsely accused others of doing what she herself has just done and I chimed in to say that I could provide it.

BTW, I did not tape the phone call with Bev for any nefarious reason: I was trying to play "Peacemaker" between Bev and Rox and wanted to be sure to have my facts straight. But for Bev to claim (falsely) that she has not accused me and others of secretly filing Qui Tam was an outrageous lie that had to be corrected. (And, I notice, no reply from Bev since her bluff has been called...)

And it saddens... and infuriates me... to see Bev online, in a public forum, trashing some of the very people who helped her with this issue from the beginning.

I believe that is terribly wrong.

That's one reason I rarely post on DU. Too much "dirty laundry".

Bottom line: We're fighting a multi-billion dollar hydra, and to alienate your allies is just plain stupid. STOP it, Bev! Please! This is not The Bev and Andy Show. It's much bigger than that.

Bev: Stop trashing good activists online. It hurts the cause.

Period.
