Hi Ron - thx for the elaboration. A couple of quickies. First, after being bounced around by the news, allegations and other leaks, I simply take a neutral stand. To chronicle my observations, I was one of the firsts to worry about Lee's predicaments. Then, there was an article released to the press, including the NYT, claiming to have damning evidence, at which point I ve backed away from a set mind position. Subsequently, there were presses on presses outbreaks, when the "well placed government source" might not be as genuine as one would have thought. Now, I see this whole episode with disinterested amusement [I'd have laughed had I not known someone's lives - literally speaking - are at stake here.]
So, what does it mean to people like you and me? Well, I cannot speak for you, but I feel like the four blind men touching the different part of the animal allegory. To guide my mind, I said to myself, "hey, wait a minute, I am just a blind dude!" OTOH, if people here [or elsewhere] think they are seers, that's ok, so long as they don't hold position like the one who gets to flip the switch <SG>! For instance, while you keep claiming you do not believe in polygraph but keep citing one of the two polygraph results, maybe the dice is loaded. I mean, the same situation can be interpreted as "hey, the guy passed [one of] the polygraph test[s].
I guess ultimately one has to rely on one's conscience. The question is: is one conscience loaded <VBG>!
best, Bosco
Yes, some of the transgressions, regardless of intent, were committed beyond doubt. However, there are so a lot of doubtful circumstances. If my mind is to back away from reputable publications [in my books] like the NYT, I am not about to accept anything less --- like the free republic <vbg>. |
