Reptilian? Yes. A very good argument indeed could be made for Reptilian. But I would guess that he has been thinking about the end of his rope for a very  long time now and he thinks about that most every day for almost all of his time every day.

My guess is that he wants to leave himself a double-edged out. In other words, in one set of circumstances, if things go wrong (as they almost certainly will)  he will want to cast the blame on Tubby. But if he imagines that things will end well, he will try to cast the credit on himself.

In other words, if his twisted logic leads him to the conclusion that the end is good and he can accept the credit, he will claim the responsibility &quot;in toto&quot; for himself. But if he concludes that things are ending badly, he will try to shift the blame onto Tubby. 

I say this because it is my opinion that most of the very worst scoundrels are also devious snakes and they try to leave themselves an &quot;out&quot; at the end of their rope. So, if he figures the world will thank him and conclude that something good has happened (the odds of this are really astronomical against him), he will point the finger at himself and try to snatch the credit. But if it appears the world will judge the end of this scam to be a big mess, he will attempt to shift the blame onto Tubby. 

It seems to me that most of the very worst scoundrels usually seem to have a two-headed plan for their end and this creep is definitely one of the very biggest scoundrels of them all. Scoundrel and creep extrodinaire!

I also want to predict that the number of responses to the blog today will be extremely large. I figure that most people will find themselves in a happy &quot;manic&quot; state and will want to celebrate by saying something joyful about the end of the one  creep and the anticipated end of the tiny creep. (tiny in size but huge in the degree of his creepiness!). 

&lt;b&gt;Oh! Such a huge fucking creep!&lt;/b&gt;]]></description>

Skyler surmised:
&quot;1) Keep the so-called “whales” donating large sums of money that will keep him living in luxury for the rest of his life.&quot;



Possible, but unnecessary.  If he spends only 5% of what he&#039;s got each year, that&#039;s still millions of dollars a year. I don&#039;t think his supply of scotch is THAT extensive.]]></description>

Yeah, &quot;Nuclear landmines&quot;.  Hubbard didn&#039;t over-react in halves, but went straight for the nuclear option.  Talk about killing mosquitos with a sledgehammer....   Most of what he (now) laughably called &quot;justice&quot; was similarly MUCH too drastic for the transgressions.  In many respects, it was as bad as old-Testament justice. If your kid disobeys, stone him/her to death; if a guy works on the Sabbath, Stone him to death.... There&#039;s no middle ground for despots like them.]]></description>
