Hey Bill, how bout taking a little personal responsibility, eh? What a hypocrite.

[onedoug]

Oh, so he moves his games of chance from the casino to the courts.

"Hey Bill, how bout taking a little personal responsibility, eh? What a hypocrite."

Would you care to identify the hypocracy?

[dasein64]

Looks to me that is exactly what he is doing. Even if he cannot recover legally, he is calling attention to the lie that what is gambled in LV is a private matter between him and the casino. Where is the hypocricy? He was engaging in a legal activity with his own money.

You have no cause for calling Bill Bennett a hypocrite. He never denied being a gambler, apparently never let it affect his family's finances, and besides, gambling is not illegal. He has ceased his gambling activities, and apparently doesn't have any outstanding debt. So how was he being a hypocrite? If TRW released your credit history for public consumption I'm sure you'd be more than a little upset.

he takes personal responsibility..but information he regarded as private and personal was leaked to the media. Bennett is not a government official; his life is not in the public domauin. He will hopefully have his privacy rights defended.
Also, reports would probably show his losses but not his wins,skewing the conception of his long term trend.

What a hypocrite.

Have you heard him talking about the evils of gambling? If not, he's no hypocrit.

[Fledermaus]

BS.

If you bothered to pay attention, Bennett has never said it wasn't his personal responsibility.

And today (July 29) he was on the Sean Hannity radio show saying he took full responsibility and really started losing when he switched to higher stakes.

This in no way alleviates the responsibility of the Vegas casinos that offer privacy. I don't care if Bennett wins in court, all he needs is the press and he could do Vegas and Atlantic City more damage than he lost. Others that think their privacy in a high roller situation is guarded will have second thoughts and make demands or not bring their money.

So you look foolish calling him a hypocrite because he HAS taken personal responsibility. But again, that doesn't give the casino a free ride when they say it's private and even advertise the privacy.

You are the hypocrite.

He has taken responsibility for HIS actions. Now he wants them to take responsibility for THEIR actions.
