I've liked Libra from the first day of the feeds. She is tough, and can be bossy, but she knows how to play the game. She has had lies told about her, as in the banner, but she has managed to hang in there. She is loyal to her alliance, even when they are not loyal to her.

I'm happy that she came in first for the POV comp and won the trip. :-)

I like Libra also. Poor girl has been the target so often it seems unfair. They have all talked crap not just her...She hasn't made up a bunch of lies about the other side like they have about her. I'm hoping Keesha, Libra and Renny finish final three.

I love Libra. I agree with everything Hypermom said. She is bossy and loud -- however, I respect the loyalty and ability to get right back into the game.

Sadly, I agree with you on that. Everyone likes to pick on Libra unfairly. She can say good morning and some people will whisper She's so fake. She can wake up and not say good morning and people will say, "can you believe she didn't say good morning". Yeah, she's the only one in the house that gets it from all sides. In her shoes, most people would be climbing the walls and pulling their hair out. So I give her props! And who wouldn't be paranoid in a house like that? Personally, I like libra a lot better than most of the people in the house. She is a little self-absorbed and overbearing sometime, but they all have their particular flaws. I hope for Libra, Keesha and Dan to be final three. It won't happen, but that would be my best case scenario.

Libra has some very good qualities. I feel bad for her when she's criticized for leaving her kids. Only she and her husband know what's best for their family.

Yeah, that was so bad. I said this before. Isn't it funny how these four (MMAJ) can deliberately make up a bold faced lie about Libra / Steven and this alleged message on a banner, and no one calls them liars or sneaky or dishonest. When if Libra were to say it might rain, and it didn't rain, she's be called the biggest liar ever in BB history. ...for weeks! Oh yeah, she's treated unfairly! And that's part of the reason I'm rooting for her too. At least more than some of these others.

Correction, I should have said we all have our particular flaws, not they all have theirs. ;)

Another Libra supporter here!!!! I didn't start out being a big fan, but once I saw that she could play the game....thats when I changed my mind. i've noticed how unfairly she's viewed by the public, as well as some of the HGs. I don't think she's a bad person at all, but she's got a strong personality, and that can be intimidating }for some people. Thats the way I feel about these HGs(namely, Jessie) for doing all he can to get her eliminated. I understand that BB is a game where manipulation comes into play, but something just bothers me when it seems like there are boldface lies are told on one person as a way to get them eliminated.

All in all, i'd love to see Libra make it to the end. I just wish she'd take a stand against her alliance and stop voting the way the HOH wants when she doesn't agree, and votes the way she really wants for a change.

Thank you for this thread...Libra has been one of my favorites from the first when I saw her interviews and she was so smart and funny! Once in a while she has relaxed and that humor comes through. It seems every year the house has a scrapegoat to blame everything on and this year it's Libra.

I like Libra. She has had an uphill battle since day 1. I think she is getting evened out. I really like seeing her funny side come out. I love the utube of her when Jerry is talking about Jironomo. (sorry~don't know the spelling of that word)
Priceless
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

She does have a great sense of humor. The late nights with Renny and Keesha make me laugh.

Yep, she does get blamed for everything, and it drives me nuts! I hate that BB let Memphis, Michelle, and Jessie state that the banner was about Libra.

Oh~I forgot to mention how you rocked the hockey POV. You did great~ I noticed April didn't give you any credit for it. I wish you had taken her $ and put her in the uni.
Enjoy Maui!!!!!!!!

I forgot to post this before. The Myspace is now set to Private, but this was posted from Libra's husband, Scott:

“Hello to all and welcome to Libra’s MYSPACE page! I am her Husband, and Father of her three children, Scott. I will be administrating this page for her while she is away on the show, BIG BROTHER. Libra and I talked about getting this up before she went on the show, but BIG BROTHER doesn’t give you much time to prepare; and obviously with the logistics of our household, a MYSPACE page wasn’t very high on our list of priorities. I’m also not sure exactly how much I will posting here for two reasons… 1. I respect my wife and her right to speak for herself, and present herself in the manner that she sees fit. 2. There are a lot of individuals who will utilize any scrap of info on her for their websites, blogs and other exploits. Therefore the information provided here will be limited. That being said, on behalf of Libra, let me thank you all for your kind words of support as we embark on this crazy ride. As for those who have already begun to criticize Libra for her decision to leave her children to be on BIG BROTHER I have a few words for you all… Firstly, Libra and I made this decision together. I have encouraged her through every step of this process. Our reason is simple, a 1 in 13 chance at $500,000. Libra is the best Mom in the world and she is instrumental in all of our children’s lives’. However, we felt as a family that the rewards far outweighed the risks for her to be on this show. Our children are very well cared for. I have always been very hands on with all of my children. Our children attend an exemplary Montessori day care due to my wife’s job requirements, and did so before this show even started. Additionally,My job gives me tremendous flexibility, allowing me to be available for anything my kids need. Im in outside sales so I set my own schedule. Libra’s Mother lives less than 5 minutes from us, and My Mother is about 10 minutes away. They are also very much a part of helping take care of our kids, more so than ever now that Libra is going to be gone for a while. Our childrens’ daily routine has been unchanged since Libra left for the show because Libra would have never been on the show in the first place if it would have disrupted their lives. Of course my 4 yr old daughter misses her Mom, so do I, like you wouldnt believe; but this was a once in a lifetime chance and after lots of deliberation and planning we decided not to let it pass by. Keep in mind Libra went to an open audition more for kicks than anything else, she was interviewed for less than 2 minutes, in a room with seven other applicants, and probably 1000 people tried out that day. They picked her and then she went through over a month of additional auditions each time she made the cut. We just went along with it. Its not like she could have done this at another time. Carpe Diem! So what if Libra misses a few feedings and dirty diapers and a soccer game or two for a very good chance at lifetime of security for those same kids. We decided it was well worth it. We feel that the general resentment of her decision to compete on BIG BROTHER is ridiculous. Would anyone question the decision if I were going on the show instead of Libra? I don’t think so. We don’t live in the 1950’s anymore. This is a new era and no one should judge her for trying to win a competition that could secure her children’s future. I assure you that Libra isn’t playing for fame. Libra has always been a fun gregarious and absolutely beautiful woman. What you see is how Libra is every day. If fame is a byproduct of this great, but she is in it for the cash and for her family. If Libra was trying to be famous, she wouldn’t be at her desk in front of her computer doing her job every day. This was a once in a lifetime opportunity and she went for it to benefit us. Libra has never tried out for any type of show. She has always done the right thing, going to school, staying out of trouble etc… I felt she deserved this once in a lifetime chance to do something great. In other words people stop hating and start celebrating. It’s a new day, a new time, and change is on the way. ( In more ways than one- Go Obama!!) Also please know that while she is a strong supporter of the Senator, as am I, she is trying to win a game, not an election. She isnt going to look for the politcal joust that everyone expects. Thanks again to all of her supporters. Let’s get ready for a great season of BIG BROTHER 10. Hopefully we will see you at the finish line. Take care and God Bless.”

Thanks Hypermom! That was interesting and enlightening. I never got the "leaving her kids" nonsense in the first place, but nice to hear Scott.

I am glad to have had the chance to hear from Libra's hubby.While initially unimpressed with her behavior she has grown on me.I really want her to win HOH tonight and mix things up even more.
It was not until I was able to see the POV segment that I realized that she won and that is how she got the trip to Hawaii.
Never did I feel that she was a bad Mom, especially with her hubby and Mom and a Mother in law.

Someone needs to send a giant "We love Libra" banner or blimo over the BB house this week. Just to piss the HG's off. Perferrably during an outdoor competition. SHe's taken enough hits for that bogus banner plane !

Wow, I was really surprised to see Libra had a fan thread, so I had to come and see!!
Its just seems like everyone is against her! I really dont have a problem with her, she is just playingthe game like everyone else. I think she is much milder than Keesha!
I havent watched the feeds a ton, and Libra is not my favorite HG, but from what Ive seen Libra doesnt deserve the bad rap she is getting!

Missy, that would be great, but would probably add more fuel to the fire with some of the HG's....Ollie, Jerry, April, and Michelle! The names thrown at her, and behind her back last night, make me cringe. :-(

Libra knows what they are calling her. I think I heard her say , after Ollie called her a "ho" for no apparent reason, I told him I am not a ho. Then she told Renny and Keesha my husband is not going to like that very much. She said it so cooly . Not perturbed at all.

Missy, yeah, Keesha and Renny said they would have said more, but she told them that is what Ollie wanted. lol Her husband is a big guy, and I'm sure he isn't thrilled at what they've said about her. IMO, Julie Chen isn't helping with all the questions to Libra each week either.

Ok I have to post this.... the other night while watching the live show, my kids 15 and 11, asked me "mom if you were on the show would you have taken the letter from home or the vacation". I paused and said that would be hard and they BOTH yelled at me and said are you crazy, take the vacation!!! You can get a letter from us anytime! So that is how my kids feel about it! So if I ever get on BB, and I take the vacation, just know now my kids are fine with it! LOL
