(If it weren't 2:30am and bolstering the spirits of my hospital bound sister via imessaging I might look it up to see what the pro and con ratio was... But I am, so I won't)
So, given she feels Nic lied and most of the comments were NOT on the side of David, why is she writing a column about it?”
BIB - I suppose that, in LJ-world, Nic lied for all the 'right' reasons, i.e. to spare Liz the pain, oh the agony of the truth of the post bias! Therefore, Nic is beyond censure as far as Liz is concerned - she was only trying to 'protect' Liz, blah blah.
Of course, the rules are not the same for anyone else, only when it suits Liz's purpose! And, like others, I don't believe many of the so-called 'real life quotations' are anything of the kind. I've never read anything Nic's written, but no one speaks or writes the way that we're led to believe everyone does in LJ-world... unless they're writing some OTT fiction piece... oh, wait...
And of course, no hint of introspection from Liz along the lines of "Maybe I need to look at myself, my attitudes and my behaviours", just more "Poor me, poor 'ickle me, it's not FAIR" *stamps foot*
