I have had much to say about JaiME and I really haven't changed my opinion but.... this poor girl is so deluded.

Yeah, I know, we should kick her out for all of her posturing and primping in front of the camera. And I agree her ego and self-importance are grating. And she did dagger Karen and smile to her face afterwards. And she chose a talent agent over her mom, I know. Then there was the time she dispatched her "best friend" Brittany without so much as a tear. Of course, who will forget her potty hiss-fit at Curtis earlier this week? And then there was supposed dice rolling that nobody ever saw but that she claimed set her agenda for nominations (until today when she wanted to make her dice rolling a "story line").

Yes, she is not the "nicest" sweet-girl I have ever met but....

When she is around the boys, her whorre-moans (I think thats how you spell it???) really drive them wild - witness Josh and Curtis ignoring all of the signs and omitting her name from their banish nominations. So her influence on the house is unique for the last two weeks. Lets not make another mistake like we did before - dumping controversial hgs to satisfy our distaste. No, lets keep her in as someone we can mock. And then consider that the mocking will continue once she is out of the house and understand why we have to leave her in.

This poor wannabe is going to come out to find she is not "all that" and that the flurry of opportunities she expects will consist of a couple of obligatory CBS appearances and a career of opening grocery stores in Utah, Wyoming and Washington State.

Do it with compassion. We need to show this poor creature some compassion. Short of euthanasia, 50,000 dollars ain't bad.

The fact is that we can't be assured that regardless of who we vote for, George or Jamie, that the other one will be nominated again.

So here's my argument.

Let's say we had one shot to do this: one shot to remove George or Jamie. Which is more reprehensible -- having George in the final three or having Jamie? To me, the answer is clear.

George has exhibited all kinds of unsavory opinions and actions during his time in the house. It would be easy to characterize him in all sorts of unflattering ways. Jamie is a drama queen who thinks she's the center of the universe. But essentially, she's harmless.

Please vote George. In case we don't get another chance.

Sorry, after tonight's "I love you mommy" routine ate up Josh's phone time, when the others' were so quick and decent about their phone calls...
The girl must go. I have lost all compassion.

Wildcat, that is such crap!

The HG were aware of how much time there was. George chose, for whatever reason, not to use his full time. That left Jamie and Josh with extra time.

Jamie did take more than a minute, but she left Josh with more than a minute also. It wasn't her fault that he had trouble with his phone call.

But hey, don't let the facts get in the way of your Jamie-hating; no one else around here does.

Jamie-haters don't know math or they wanted Josh to have 2 minutes to forget how to use a phone.

George has to go.

She left Josh 23 extra seconds it was Josh's misdial the first time that cost him the time.

I am in total agreement with you Martha.
Jamie did not backstab Karen, she simply nominated her then continuted to treat her as she always had.... she has never told someone to their face she wouldn't nominate them then do so... she preens and wants to be a star - yes, but she hasn't pretended otherwise either. She will soon find out she isn't going to make it. Woman are really horrible to other women, picking the most superficial reasons, to decide not to like a person at times. While I don't want Jamie to win, other than annoying trival and superficial things she hasn't done anything hurtful or underhanded to anyone, has pulled her weight in there in all ways, including indulging George's craziness, and helped make decent meals. Get with it folks.. or you will have to listen to Pa whining and repeating everything he says 3 to 4 times in a row for another week - then have him rewarded for his stupid and insenstive antics.

Set the hate aside - If you have any thinking power left you'd want to get George out of the house... I can't believe you'd rather listen to him bawk bawk bawking and god knows he'll pester the guys to wanting to sleep all day and you won't get to see them as much!

The first time he tried it, Josh left out a number. He was short one and so his call didn't go through. They when he hung up, he didn't get a dial tone for quite awhile. Then he also misdialed and had to start over. He was nervous and had problems. It happens but it is why he didn't have time. Not Jamie.

Im not JaiME bashing nor am I a Josh fan. I still believe that JaiME should have shut her mommy up out of consideration for the time left. She let her mom go on and on and on and on and she could have at any point said a quick "I luv ya...bye bye" but she didn't.

Why so Josh could have 2 minutes? He had plenty of time. If Josh hadn't messd up he would have had over a minute to talk. He would have had just as much time as Jamie did. She left him the same amount of time that she had.

You are clearly missing my point. I could care less how much time Josh had on the phone or what his dialing skills are. Jaime hogged (or Mommy did) a massive part of phone time. Funny that all others were quite quick and considerate of the calls and Jaime just let things go on and on and on. Thank god she didnt go first, the guys would have never gotten in the first "hello"

If you don't care how much time Josh had, then why does it matter how much time Jamie used or how? What was she supposed to be saving the time for then??
Everyone but Jamie and Josh were done. Are you saying she should have taken 30 sec and left 2 minutes for Josh or maybe left 1 minute for Josh and let CBS have the other minute back?
The first ones knew there was several after them. They went fast to leave time for anyone left. George is the one that didn't use his time and so left it for Jamie and Josh. Jamie knew there was only Josh left after her and she divided the time left when she got in equally. She was watching the clock. If Josh hadn't messed up he would have had as much time with his stepdad as Jamie had with her mom. Josh is the one that messed up and you can't blame her for that. Josh was just too nervous to dial the phone or he would have had just as much time as Jamie.

Good Grief.
One more time, and then I am going to bed.
Do you tape the show? If you do, time Jaime's use of the phone time compared to any of the others...look at the effort used to expediate conversation compared to the others. Compare the entire speak and response of all the converstations.
My point is that she blatantly and rudely hogged both phone time and air time (another chance in front of cameras) instead of telling mommy that she had to go. She never said, "mom make it quick" or anything like that. She knew there was only one person after her and so she made the best of that time to her alleged advantage. She got to hear a "list" of things while Curtis' mom had to quickly yell that someone in the family was having a certain sex of baby. She carried out the "mommy I love you" several times before she finally hung up the phone.
I would not have cared if it was Chiquita next in line to bark at the LA pug rescue, Jaime was not about to miss her more than ample phone/camera time for anything resembling courtesy.

For your information, I watched in the live feed during the east coast live show and made notes of what I wanted to check for during the 'not so live show' later. I checked the time very carefully. Yes she did use more time then the first 3 but it was not her fault that that they didn't use more. One of them had said they had about 20 seconds each and the first three pretty much went by that but they had more time each that and so the time left just built up. George took almost no time which left almost half of the total time for Jamie and Josh. Why on earth didn't she have the right to half of it?? To me it is unreasonable to say she should have only used a few seconds and left about 2 minutes for Josh. Josh just had bad luck or he would have had just as much time as she did!!!! He used just as much time as she did only she used it talking while he used it dialing, waiting for it to ring and waiting for a dial tone. They had the same amount of time available to them. Even Josh complained about the phone problems not that he didn't have time.

Wildcat, I think I understand. However, others feel that just because there was extra time left, if Jamie had just left Josh with 1 minute that would have been okay.

My problem with her phone call is the fact that she DID take more than her allotted time (1 min.), and because she didn't say anything to the others about taking extra, she gave them the impression that she just took her minute and Josh had extra time.

If she said she took half the time left on the clock and left Josh the other half, which is what she did, I'd be sympathetic toward her. If she would have thanked the others for leaving extra time, I might even be thinking of not voting for her.

I agree with Wacko. Jamie must go. All any of us ever hear from her is "me, me, me, me, me." She did NOT make any attempt to wrap up her conversation with her mother. She is a selfish, egotistical girl who needs to be knocked back into reality!

I voted for Jamie, but in fairness didn't she take about half of the total time remaining for her and Josh? Nothing wrong with that.

I'm going to jump in here and ask a question. When did it become worse to be self centered than to be devious? I'm not Jamie's biggest fan, but look at what happened last time.... George got so much sympathy from the house guests for having the most votes and the banners that he wasn't even marked the next round. After everything that we've see George and Teresa do I can't stand the thought of them actually getting to profit from it. Please folks remember the outrage you felt at the time. Don't let a couple of weeks of boring house activities (obviously bringing Jamie further into the storyline) let you overlook all of the things George has done that most of us would not tolerate from someone in our own lives on the outside. This is an outright plea. Think about which is actually less deserving of any cash. This is obviously the lesser of two evils, but it really should be George.

I believe this is our time to vote George out. His wife now has a town in Texas adopting George and giving him a key to the town (I'm gonna puke), and of course, lovely Teresa will pick someone to target as she did with Brit, so all of our votes need to go to George....
As far as JaiME is concerned, I agree with Wildcat about the phone call. Regardless of how much time JaiME left for Josh, she was still selfish in the amount of time she hogged with her Mom. My skin crawled at the end when she kept saying "love you mommy" over and over. FOR GOD'S SAKE WOMAN - HANG UP THE PHONE!!! Anyway, just my opinion, but it irritated me to no end.

Jamie took note that she began to dial at 2:44 remaining. She ended call at 1:22, that is exactly half the remaining time.

I am with those that think preening isn't as nasty as deviousness and REAL video taped backstabbing (in RR), and hiring a PR firm to remain in the house is what is UNfair. Voting Jamie is a shallow move.

Why would you want to have the Chicken man bugging the men for the remaining 2 weeks!

I need to clear a few things up here. I am from Houston, Texas and the city of Kemah did the George parade about a month ago. That is old footage! But, I still want people to vote Jamie out of the house. She is too self-centered. Did anyone notice that when Josh came out of the RR last night after talking to his step-dad, that Jamie asked him if he called his mother? Does she not have a heart? Josh's mother is dead. She ONLY thinks about herself, people! Get her out!

We must banish Chin-girl now only to make sure the show improves. Gotta love the increased tension now that ChickenMan knows he's a marked man by all 4 others! Besides, she will not expect to be banished next -- this too will make for much better TV viewing!!!!!!
