It is fascinating to watch the disintegrating personal relationships of others, but that's what that was: personal. It is not our business.

I donated money to BBV. I donated more than a buck, as Randi had asked, and it gave me no power as a shareholder. Once you donate, not invest, how that money is spent is out of your hands. You have no right to demand an audit. And when I read about her fighting over trash bags full of poll tapes, I know my money is being how I hoped it would.

She has a caustic, controlling personality? She's not a nice person? I couldn't care less. In fact, every company I have ever been involved with that was run by a nice guy has gone out of business. Only an incredibly self-centered, dominating maniac would have started an organization designed to take on a criminal group trying to control the entire federal government in this way.

Black Box Voting's personnel problems are none of DU's business.

Bev Harris' personality clashes with other activists are not the business of anyone not directly involved.

Bev Harris' clashes with the press are of minor concern, and damage control should be done.

All I care about is keeping Bush from taking control of the government, and she is getting results. She could be Charles Manson right now for all I care, she got the goddamn IP address!

Psyops are now operating on DU. Any talk of "refunds" or "investigations" of BBV are people taking the bait.
