And you push so hard on NP's behalf it doesn't make sense.

Let me also stress something and make it very clear. The fact that I believe the 13D group are pond scum who don't care one iota about shareholders is wholly separate from whatever I may or may not feel about NP.

I read Closet saying the same BS all the time. Ditto for Sword and his ilk. They call me a "paid pumper" or "shill for NP." In most of my posts, attacking the 13D and questioning their motives, I don't lavish praise on NP. Just because I loathe the 13D and everything they've done so far, that isn't a defense of NP.

I can despise the guy who might replace Hitler in 1946 and that doesn't mean I like Hitler.

That said, I still maintain Nader's heart is in the right place and he wants shareholders to reap the rewards. Is he the best CEO? Nope, but he's about to bring the ship into port so I don't want to change him for debt-evading lawyers like Rosenbaum, stock-flipping guys like Beaty, and "give me 5x what my company is worth" Patterson. They can all whistle.

I want Nader to stay, warts and all, at least through the Brazil trial. Now, if Brazil doesn't happen and/or he doesn't deliver any other catalysts between now and the shareholder vote, you can kick him to the curb and I'll tie your laces. Until then, I refuse to kiss the feet of the 13D group JUST BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT NADER... which seems to be your stance.
