Finally, a critic almost man enough to admit the truth. I say "almost,"
because he first has to get in a cheap shot (dear drooler) to soften
the damaging effect of the admission, and then makes sure he puts in
the "probably," to further soften it up and leave room for doubt.

But Rob, as they are saying about Slick Willy's confession, "It's a
good start."

But then, of course, you go and louse the whole thing up:

Oh, no, no, no, no, NO! PLEASE, Rob! Now you start to sound so
pathetic. You start to sound like a Presidential advisor, shuckin' and
jivin', trying to misdirect and obfuscate and prevaricate--not to say
"lie."

There IS no "larger issue." FLUNK! Here's the only issue that this
thread was EVER about:

1. A critic, "The Exile" <exile...@hotmail.com>, told a lie. He claimed,
falsely, that Hubbard lied "time after time" about his grades. That is
a lie. It wasn't stated as opinion, or a guess--it was stated emphatically
as FACT. Yet it is a lie.

2. An anonymous poster asked him to post quotes where Hubbard had done
that, or even ONE quote where Hubbard had done that.

3. The Exile neither posted a quote to back up his assertion, nor
apologized for having told the lie in the first place.

4. An army of critics have jumped on the bandwagon, trying to turn this
thread into ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING EXCEPT THE LIE TOLD BY ANOTHER
CRITIC, and trying to make a certain Anonymous, who has been doing
nothing but trying to get the question answered honestly, out to be the
bad guy or some sort of idiot, when he obviously is correct.

Why are you, and every other critic who has posted on this thread, being
such hypicrites about this? Why don't you hold The Exile to the same
standard that you hold Scientologists to? Why do you defend his lie?

I, personally, would have a great deal more respect for The Exile if he
would be man enough to step forward and admit that what he said was not
true, and end this idiotically long thread.

In the meantime, every critic who tries to change the subject of the
thread, or tries to claim a "bigger issue" in order to minimize the
original lie, just looks like a fool, and a liar himself. It is a
pathetic exercise to watch.

Give it up. The Exile is busted. Admit the lie. And demand that The
Exile admit it. And then drop it. Find something better to do.
