Oh, I highly doubt it. You can try to put lipstick on a pig all you want but a pig is a pig, just check out mykeru's history of BB if you want to know who BB really is. Nice try though.
Like I said, they are scratching their heads going "what the heck"... Nobody cares even on the gush threads. And, it looks like Micheal Moore doesn't want anything to do with them either. That was the big talk not so long ago - MM was gonna take the case. MM would be a foolish idiot to even contimplate it. Ole Bethy was gleefully making up NEW and IMPROVED details on how Andy was escorted physically from Johns Hopkins. LMAO.
Gotta understand the political snake oil salesmen are always looking for ways to wrestle money away from those that feel politically disenfranchised. This whole group started out in the BBV era where over a million dollars was gained. Some lost out on that and hitched their wagon to Andy's star when Andy split off to cash in on his own scam. Ben and Beth are waiting for their chance to cash in now -- in my opinion.
Welcome aboard, PINGEE #892.
On this latest threat page there are about 115 posts. 43 by SFex, BB, and WP. If you count the sockpuppet rulvy that is 50 posts by them. Don't have time 'now' to count the unique posters in that thread, but I venture to guess maybe 20. Thats it. It isn't any better on the gush threads. That is sad.
What you write about benburch, et al, could very well be true. But that doesn't mean I was trying to put lipstick on a pig. I just didn't see it your way. I admit my knowledge of Scamdy is limited. I wasn't around when it came down, and I've only given it a perfunctory glance. But putting lipstick on a pig implies purposely trying to whitewash something and that is patently false.
Sorry, calls em like I sees em. They have done nothing but threaten this and threaten that for months. They want to hurt this website and others, financially string people up that are conservative, etc. etc. etc when their own main detractors are Du'ers (quite laughable).
There are basically only a few over there that push this stuff. For one reason. Money. Well, maybe noteriety too. Beth was in charge of covering up the money (after the fact) in the andyscam which I figure was in the 250000 range, maybe more. This is after she tossed her husband aside, to live on the streets, because of his mental illness. A very cold vindictive mean person.
Some of us followed it from the beginning. There is no redeeming qualities in BB. None. Period. No matter how sincere you think he may be, think again. Matter of fact, he probably captured your IP address off you reading that thread for his malicious purposes or to file for later. This is the same guy that creates division for the purpose of fundraising for his own website. So yes, when someone tries project good intentions on him, it is putting lipstick on the proverbial BB pig.
Wrong again! You just don't understand my comments. I wasn't '[trying to] put good intentions' on benburch; merely stating an opinion other than yours. And that is NOT putting lipstick on a pig. I don't give a damn for those idiots. Any of them. I'm not trying to whitewash anything, just stating an opinion. And if you can't handle that then you have a problem. So sorry, I 'calls em like I sees em' too.
I meant he took a plan from Johns Hopkins to his home in Seattle. He had some kind of surgery at JH we just aren't positive what it was.
Barset is contending that Andy never was at Johns Hopkins. Which would explain why they never sued JH for losing the check in the mailroom and why Michael Moore won't touch this internet fairy tale with a ten foot salami.

Had I thought more carefully, I should have realized this. I know Barset knew the claims about JH. I will admit to being extremely slow witted this week. Critical thinking skills are apparently on "pause". Just lump me in with the confused Florida butterfly ballot crowd! :-)
The Michael Moore 'Lucy holding the football again' meme got them all excited. Funny you don't hear that subversive threat anymore.
My opinion is that this anniversary was looked upon by a select few (who were periphial insiders on the Andyscam) as the opportunity to start their own fundraiser, but a few put the cold water on the party. They backed off in that thread because they saw that they had nothing going. They forget that the human condition lends to short term attention spans, and the whole thing has worn out its welcome.
Yeah, I thought it was way more than $50,000, too...
Post #18 in that thread had me doubled over laughing.
Now maybe we know what really happened to Andy. Could it be he left for 'parts unknown'???
This is making the rounds on the internet blogs today!
I don't understand why liberals are so upset, if I was a lefty I'd be quite happy with the "conservative" government of Mexico, seeing as Vicente Fox is a carbon copy of DU with his positions on the illegal immigration, the Iraq war, the death penalty, liberal divorce laws, gun control, the UN, envirowacko cause, free government funded health care, free government funded education, etc., etc.
