Gus Silent on DegreeDiscussion's 2nd Anniversary
#11
You know, I'm not sure Bear did change. I have come to believe that he never believed the things he said about Summit and CPU.....etc. I think he just said it, and as soon as he had moved on, he started telling more lies, the Excelsior / TESC / UOP crap. The truth: He believes that anything less than the better RA Brick and Mortar schools are just landfill material.  Bear only used well thought of schools, not the best, but good, and that is what he, I feel, truly believes in. The man is a down to earth, full blown, snob, who wouldn't spit on an Excelsior degree if it was on fire.

As you have said, Little Arminius, he has encouraged the lunatics at DI / DD to pursue his former patrons and clients and seems to be proud of it. He is a walking pile of shit. Maybe through our work, others may come to know the damage he has done to many thousands of people.

Bear is a salesman. Period. Can we hold grudges against a salesman because last year he recommended grow-me-hair pills and this year he recommends "herbal viagra"? Oh yes, now he says hair pills are bad for one's manhood, waving a fold of "studies" proving just that...perhaps the same he was waving last year for all we know. Oh, yes...he made people think they were worth something and they are now offended...$19.99, 9.99 or 39.99: that is what you were worth (or the price tag of whatever he happened to be selling ).
It is like being offended because "honest John", the used car salesman, pretends not to know us anymore...yet it still looks like yesterday when "honest John" just could not help us enough and offered us tea & biscuits as we bought that fantastic car in mint condition and with no mileage, previously owned by a little old lady who used it to go to church only.
True, in the last three years we've spent three times the price paid to "honest John" to repair rust, flat tires, unpaid road taxes, holed exhaust, and an engine our mechanic said looked like that of an old tank from El-alamein...
Funny, isn't it?

I wonder how Bear's credibility as a professional witness would have been had the courts, and particularly the other lawyer, known the full story on John Bear.

attorney:  "Good morning, Dr. Bear."
Bear:  "Good morning"
attorney:  "'John Bear', interesting name. Have you always used the name 'John Bear'?"

I suspect that it would have gone downhill from there.  Tongue

And how about if the lawyer had asked:
Lawyer: Good afternoon Dr. Bear.
Bear: Good afternoon.
Lawyer: Would you describe these schools for me and your part in them?

Bear: Could I have a moment your Honor?
Judge: No, answer the question.

Hear that noise? That's the BANG DegreeInfo has warned about for so long.

Wouldn't it be delicious to hear Bear have to tell how much money he took in and all the little details about his mills and unaccredited schools, all those promises and ratings he gave state licensed schools? I can hear him now, "But it was only a joke." If just one lawyer had done his homework Bear would have been a joke by now. Of course to those of us who know the truth, he already is one.

Maybe, someday, we will find out about one of his little TV spots in advance and will be able to e-mail some of this juicy stuff to the reporters. That would be sweet. Bear goes on to out one of his customers and "Bingo" they turn the tables on Bear and say "John Bear, this is your life." And they crucify him, question after question, till the old fraud limps off, disgraced and finished. If he just keeps on going to court and on tv as the preaching expert against mills, the better chance some smart probing lawyer or reporter will do a decent internet search and find all these things Bear has done, and then, justice is delivered.

Most con-men go to the well once too often and get caught.

the problem is they are all sleeping in bed together.
is it possible no reporter or lawyer bothered running a casual search on him?
There is stuff enough to make him want to change his name again.
Fact is, they all sleep in bed together...it is another case of wrestling champion turned preacher (of whom there are curiously many )...from selling "angles and kayfabe" doing choreographed assisted pile drivers to selling salvation and repentance; masses have to be just as gullible, but promoters don't really care...does it sell? Yes, so what? Is it a fraud? Oh, well...you shouldn't cast the first stone and who knows...skeletons in the closet can be oh-so-good for another row of media exposure...just in case someone reminds them who their "champion" really is, and they have an interest in pillorying him this time...

I suppose you are correct, Ham. Why would a reporter or lawyer go after someone who is helping accomplish what they are after. And if the defense attorney goes after the so-called expert for the prosecution, well, everyone sort of looks away, they expect that, and have doubts about all of the stuff.

When Bear provided the trash on John Gray, it would have been to the reporters advantage to NOT mention the fact that Bear helped sell the trash to people, including, possibly, Gray.

I guess Bear has become the hired gun for the people who wish to attack others for a purpose, and he very kindly gets his own trash selling pushed behind the bushes.

There is still the hope that ONE reporter or lawyer (with some effort and integrity) will do Sir: Bear. We can hope. He has done his share of outing, including his partner at Greenwich, John Walsh. Who, by the way, was very pissed at Bear. Bear sent him an e-mail trying to suck up and saying that he had kept back the worst he knew, perhaps a hidden threat by Bear.
