Hi Charles (and lizards),

I wish to bring to your attention an anti-Israel group which poses as a pro-Israel group. The group is called: J-Street. Policy Analyst Barry Rubin labels J-Street an Iranian Front group. J-Street published a letter entitled "An Open Letter to Michael Oren" in yesterday's Jerusalem Post which you might want to take a look at. A new web-site called J-StreetJive, a group which tracks the imposters, posted their analysis of J-Streets letter on their web-site. thanks.

I could really go for some garlic fries right now

12 Charles Johnson  Tue, Oct 13, 2009 9:00:56pm

I see we're even getting the assholes in this thread.

13 Kronocide  Tue, Oct 13, 2009 9:00:59pm

I got some nice little line level monitors for my PC, at the office late... nice...

14 ggt  Tue, Oct 13, 2009 9:01:02pm

Too late. Charles just played whack-a-troll again.

16 The Shadow Do  Tue, Oct 13, 2009 9:01:19pm

Ragebutt, exit stage right...

Good to hear!

Otherwise, how are you?

21 Daniel Ballard  Tue, Oct 13, 2009 9:02:03pm

re: #15 Dark_Falcon

Missed it by seconds. Pffft. Made me laugh as my screen refreshed.

22 Coracle  Tue, Oct 13, 2009 9:02:17pm

Thanks for the music. Bedtime music for me. Good night, all.

23 Dark_Falcon  Tue, Oct 13, 2009 9:02:58pm

re: #12 Charles

I see we're even getting the assholes in this thread.

Lately we seem to get the assholes on every thread. Things had slowed down, but you seem to have brought the loons back by pointed out Michael Steele's Epic Fail. If you're pissing off the loons this much, you're surely doing the right thing.

24 ArchangelMichael  Tue, Oct 13, 2009 9:03:15pm

The number of kooks per cubic parsec is getting uncomfortable.

I like that word.

His reflexes are uncanny!

Sounds like a job for some space-clearing sweeps. Have the Vipers do a sweep, won't you?

28 ggt  Tue, Oct 13, 2009 9:05:18pm

Another good word.

Is there a parallaxiam?

29 Danny  Tue, Oct 13, 2009 9:06:41pm

Ragebutt, exit stage right...

Let me guess...he went to defend LGF over at Hotair.

re: #39 BigPapa

Clearly they don't like jazz piano solos.

41 Cheeseland  Tue, Oct 13, 2009 9:12:46pm

Nice music, why is it attracting the crazy comments?

42 Charles Johnson  Tue, Oct 13, 2009 9:13:24pm

Because I dared to call out the creeps at Hot Air.

43 peterb  Tue, Oct 13, 2009 9:13:56pm

I have this image that when Charles deletes a troll post, he shouts "Deleted!" like Strong Bad.

44 LudwigVanQuixote  Tue, Oct 13, 2009 9:15:16pm

re: #42 Charles

Keep up the good work.

45 Cheeseland  Tue, Oct 13, 2009 9:15:38pm

I want the kids to keep taking piano lessons, is watching this going to inspire them or scare them away?

46 Charles Johnson  Tue, Oct 13, 2009 9:28:49pm

Well, it is pretty scary if you have an appreciation for the mind-boggling technique. But it's also very inspiring.

Random music interlude no 1 (this one is dedicated to i-dub):

I'm the bitch you hated, filth infatuated.
Yeah, I'm the pain you tasted, fell intoxicated
I'm a firestarter, twisted firestarter,
you're the firestarter, twisted firestarter.
I'm the self-inflicted, punk detonator.
Yeah, I'm the one invented, twisted animator.
I'm a firestarter, twisted firestarter,
you're the firestarter, twisted firestarter.
starter... starter... starter...
