Jim Slip - a little hypocritical?

[David Johnson]

Jim Slip,

In a separate thread entitled African aid, OEJ kindly supported my views and criticised SAYITREAL for his stream of insults, aimed at me first, then OEJ. Initially you defended SAYITREAL saying he had been provoked.

OEJ made the point "Dont turn this into a David Johnson thing Jim because it is what it is, you guys attacking an individual mob handed for having a different point of view".

You ignored OEJ's point, Jim and said instead "All I ask is for calm to break out once again on this normally civilised, democtratic, forum!"

Earlier this year, Jim Slip you stated and I paraphrase.......It seems that common sense has broken out on BGAFD with various members carrying out attacks on David Johnson. Blah Blah is leading the charge, let us not let him down!

Do you think you have been a little hypocritical?

Cheers

I think some people find it hard to admit when they are wrong and try to bend the thread ointo something else to deflect from their own shortcomings.

This seems to be instinctive behaviour of some people who harbour insecurities

If you are wrong theres nothing in admitting it and just apologising and moving on but some people see this as losing face in the eyes of their audience

I say depending on the mistake, just makes you human. Some peoples ego wont allow them to admit this

The only issue I have with David Johnson is with his tactics of bullying, patronising and insulting others who do not agree with him.

He is a fundamentalist, New Labour fanatic......period. I have nothing more discuss with this lunatic.

Please read your first sentence

"The only issue I have with David Johnson is with his tactics of bullying, patronising and insulting others who do not agree with him".

"The only issue". Really Jimbo? Apart from my Nazi, Stalinist, Pol Pot, torture loving traits?

Now read your second sentence

"He is a fundamentalist, New Labour fanatic......period. I have nothing more discuss with this lunatic".

Do you not think the second sentence is a classic example of what you say you are against in your first sentence?

Secondly since you ignore completely the point that I made, forumites will note how hypocritical it is of you to call for "calm to break out once again on this normally civilised, democtratic, forum!" whilst having done your utmost to encourage people to "carry out attacks on David Johnson" on the forum.

Did I miss your denial of that?

What kind of person are you really, Jim?

Alex gets it in his funny comment about me "A touch left wing? Of course, but he dislikes Tony Blair, so can't be all bad!"

Why don't you get it, Jim? Why not?

Cheers
D
