Not trying to through fuel on the fire, but I thought it would be worth knowing who Winston Card actually is. These references were taken from someone elses post on a similar topic.

We already know what card is. I've got about a million rat tubs I'm going to go clean the card out of this morning. Doesn't matter how many pictures he's taken or articles he's written, or plagerised, he's still a walking talking pile of crap. A list of what, accomplishments(?), will do nothing to change what he is.

Four posts here for you Bear1..........and all of them either defending Card or casting aspersions on those who have an issue with him.

I could do a search on Melissa Kraplan and post a similar list..........

Who are you Bear1? Winston Card? An Animal Planet intern who helped Winston Card apply ointment to his string warts? Winston Card's talking left testicle?

Or are you just someone who is stupid enough to think that being published somehow allows you carte blanche to lie and misrepresent your intentions?

Geez, you fellas are a bit testy! Have you never heard the term, "know thy enemy?"

I have never met either individual involved in this nonsense or actually seen the show and I am a little to old to be anyone's intern. Are you Danny Steele?

The fact remains, this guy may be piece of work, many of us are, but he does have a history. I am not sure why you would assume my intent in pointing that history out was to defend him?:colbert:

Maybe because you have posted 5 times on this forum and all of these posts have either provided Card's anemic qualifications, have cast the side eye on Ripa or have stated how you don't have much sympathy for Steele. Subtle little comments which all tacitly either support Card or who poke at those who don't.

5 times you've posted on this forum and all 5 times have been in this thread. You walk like a duck, you talk like a duck and if I presented my leg to you, you would probably hump it like a duck. From hereon out, you shall be known as Duck1.

You said testy, hahaha

I see you have posted nearly 3000 times. Not sure what your point is, but here's a thought:

1. Television is pure garbage. I do not own a television and have little respect for anyone that would ever get involved in the industry - subject or host.

2. When I read things that interest me in blogs, chat rooms, or forums posted by angry people, I try and verify the information being provided if its possible to do so. I read Mr. Ripas blog and found it compelling, so I did a little digging and found some odd things on his web page. What of it? The guys a little strange, so what?

I simply cut and pasted that list of references posted above, its information readily avalible. The guys published. What of it?

You sound a bit like an angry teenager. Do you need a hug or perhaps a spanking? :O

Where did this come from. I'm actually close enough to check it out in person. I didn't know that there was ever anything published in Shoreview MN.
