You would be surprised....And she is the closest thing you have to an advocate.

Excuse me, but that reminds me of the old saying "with friends like these . . ."

There are a number of posters who have been expressing at least open mindedness, if not actual belief, in the fact that I was not involved in Poet's suspension. They seem much closer to being advocates to me, frankly. For E to continually to call me a liar during the time she knew (but I didn't) that you had appointed her your surrogate is hardly the role one conceives of in an advocate.

As a professional advocate, I can say with some confidence that if I acted that way in my advocacy, calling my clients liars without a shred of proof, I wouldn't be around long.

I will give her more benefit of the doubt than she gave me, but frankly my belief is that you're intentionally setting me up for failure so you can have the satisfaction of saying you tried and it's my fault nothing came of it.

Now all we need is to have you recommend Hamas as the advocates for Israel at the peace negotiations, and your role as a highly skilled peace negotiator will be confirmed.
