"He [JB] is the guy who hired BG. JB is to blame for that. We are in this sorry position now as you say, is because of JB and only JB. If I were you I would be mad at JB."
You are right to blame JB for BG. And I'm sure JB would acknowedge that- but also regret his naivete' in believing others were as honest and trustworthy as himself. Remember- he never hired BG as a CEO- but rather as a part time lawyer- to help out a bit. BG's machinations took it from there. We all make mistakes.
