Curt Schilling bounced from big show

It is a kneejerk reaction among some. No matter what the topic, they point to something Obama has done, no matter how dissimilar. It is known as ODS.

Nope. Its just that some liberals can't handle the truth, in that Obama and his Administration were grossly inept with Solyndra, and are desperate for any scenaio that might mitigate such.

Solyndra is still an anchor around the jackasses neck. He put it there. He's gonna wear it until the election.

Conservatives can't even get through a thread about Curt Schilling without bashing Obama. And you wonder why you don't get taken seriously?

Oddly, I was the one who linked to a fairly unbiased and balanced report on this story. I am also the one not playing politics with it. And I am the one not bringing unrelated stuff into it. You on the other hand...

Oddly .... see my post #16, long before you joined the thread, where I "linked to a fairly unbiased and balanced report on this story". And as the OP is not mine, and apparently you did not read it, let me show you here how politics and tone were set:

And then there's the ginormous asshole hypocrite Curt Schilling. How ironic that we went to the government to bail his sleazy ass out. Not once, but three times no less. I seem to recall him being an ardent conservative who preached doing things for one's self and not being reliant on the government dole.

Do as I say, but not as I do.

Reading is your friend ;)

Massively is not what I would call unbiased, though they are apolitical. You did bring in unrelated stuff into the thread. I am sorry you have ODS, but it is up to you to find a cure.
 
Gamasutra - News - '38 Studios Spouse' speaks out

Putting a real face on what happened here.

Ok, so time to lick our wounds, get back on the horse, and find a new job. At least we stuck it out and won't have to pay back our relocation costs according to the Chief Operating Officer. Wrong! On June 1st, we get a letter from Atlas Van Lines with 10 days to pay our overdue moving bill of a sizeable amount. Six months has gone by since our move. There was no notice at any point that this had not been paid and now we get a bill with 10 days to pay. Why now? Haven't they had 6 months to collect this? Didn't the company say we would be let out of our contract since they folded? Couldn't they have given us a heads up at any point before we were broke and our savings gone to feed our children? After all, a heads up on this might have alerted us to a problem with 38 Studios before we got to this point. Well on one page in a series, of approximately 45, we signed a document stating in tiny print that we would be responsible if the company does not pay. I don't know if most people are aware, but moving with three kids, a dog, and a cat from one coast to another is a bit tiring and this document was of course presented on the day our stuff arrived in Rhode Island, which was chaos.

So, there goes our credit rating no matter how hard we are trying to still pay for all bills with no income. We have no income, no time to prepare, and I will not let my children starve to pay for a move that did not exactly work out. Why hadn't Atlas collected from 38 Studios? We were told by an Atlas representative that they had a special working relationship with Curt Schilling, therefore they were trying to work with him. Must be nice to have at least 30 days, let alone six months to pay for this bill.

Couple things to take from this:

38 studios was behind by at least 6 months in paying bills, and Atlas Van Lines are a bunch of assholes. Really, you let some one know they are getting stuck with a bill that they where not supposed to have to pay, and you give them 10 days? Really?
