Defending Pete



Part of the problem in defending Pete is that he is such a unique person.  We 
are rather acquainted with him and are not that surprised by this.  I know 
that I wasn't.  What I was surprised by was the way it was described in the 
press. I was shocked and then thought "oh, I already knew he was doing that." 
But others do not get into stuff like he does.

Whenever I tell someone the story behind ADB and give the background before 
the blowup, everyone agrees that he is being made the fall guy.  He is the 
famous one that is the umbrella for the next in line famous ones that should 
be getting rained on.  It is in all of their interest to leave Pete out there 
as long as possible.

This is a critical issue to Pete.  It may be his present day project.  Could 
you imagine him trusting someone to help him with Lifehouse?  I see the 
credit card thing as him spying on enemy territory.  If he had used it 
frequently over a long period of time, then I would change my mind. 

Knowing what he is doing and knowing the enormous help he has rendered to 
victims, to use it once means nothing to me.
