When Wingnut Bloggers Attack
Here’s the background on this amazingly lengthy series of diatribes spewed at me on Twitter in the past day or two: In Which CNN Contributor Dana Loesch Falsely Accuses Me of Using a Racial Slur.
After I posted that article, Loesch went nuts — tweeting insults at me over and over like a deranged parrot. It was impressive.
@jkfecke Ask @Lizardoid Why it was a “slur” when Rush said “uppity,” but not Charles? Hack.

Charlies Johnsons’s ponytail scrunchie is too tight tonight, again, apparently.

@jkfecke Double standards, double standards. @lizardoid #bronytails

I love nothing more than when husky white progressive males try to explain why it’s OK for them to use racial slurs.
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) April 24, 2012
Cue name-calling from husky white male now that I’ve called him out on the double standard. Waiting. Will reTweet.

@Tarkloon Fabulous! Another Jazzy Ponytail fan to excuse racial slurs when progs say them. Applause!

UPDATE: Husky white male progressive defending CJ’s use of previously classified “racial slur” tags in backup. #ponywar
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) April 24, 2012
@el_suerte No, no, noes. Charles previously classified it as a slur. According to his own rules, it still is one.

@mwoodward4 No, I’m holding to his definition of “uppity.” I know, consistency is like a BRAIN FREEZE, right?
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) April 24, 2012
UPDATE: Another husky white prog male tags to say racial slurs are OK if CJ uses it because, hi, white and prog. #makesitOK

”We’re back to ‘LGF Fan Hour’ sponsored by Scrunchies and Zima. I’m your host, Dark Falcon.” — Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) April 24, 2012
Yeah! Now that’s some good old-fashioned wingnut hatin’, and nobody hates like Dana Loesch! These are apparently the tweets that set her off:
Does CNN contributor Dana Loesch understand the concept of a “racist slur?” lgf.bz/HWUqUX @Dloesch @CNN
— Charles Johnson (@Lizardoid) April 24, 2012
Are Dan Riehl and Dana Loesch really this dense, or just cynically manipulating those who are? lgf.bz/HWUqUX @DLoesch @DanRiehl
— Charles Johnson (@Lizardoid) April 24, 2012
After Loesch’s tirade, breitbart.com “investigative journalist” Mandy Nagy (@Liberty_Chick) got into the act, retweeting some even sleazier posts by one of the people from the website described in this LGF article: Rodan Exposed: The Shocking Audio.

— Mandy Nagy (@Liberty_Chick) April 24, 2012
One of the things genuine stalkers do, of course, is to accuse their targets of being stalkers themselves. Notice also that the person who Mandy Nagy is retweeting has used a name similar to a frequent LGF commenter, ‘iceweasel.’ They just can’t help revealing how obsessive they are.
Then, of course, the always effervescent Dan Riehl contributed his own special brand of creepiness to the mix:
@Lizardoid why do you hate nuns, Charles? This isn’t a sexual fantasy of yours, I hope.
— DanRiehl (@DanRiehl) April 24, 2012
Dan is completely made of class.
But this wasn’t the end of the venom! Next, the Daily Caller’s “Obama Ate Dog” guy, Jim Treacher, went into auto-spew mode (asking me over and over when I was going to “apologize to Dan Rather” for some reason that I’m sure makes sense to a wingnut). Notice that I wasn’t even directing my tweets to him — I was talking with @AngryBlackLady — but Treacher just kept on ranting:
@Lizardoid @AngryBlackLady Have you apologized to Dan Rather yet for ruining his career, Chuck? Also, #ObamaEatsDogs.
— ‘Jim’ ‘Treacher’ (@jtLOL) April 24, 2012
@Lizardoid I don’t blame you for trying to cover up your frustrated rage, Chuck. It’s killing you that you can’t rebut #ObamaEatsDogs.
— ‘Jim’ ‘Treacher’ (@jtLOL) April 24, 2012
@Lizardoid @AngryBlackLady Oh, you don’t think you did anything wrong? Helping out those crazy wingnuts you now hate so passionately?
— ‘Jim’ ‘Treacher’ (@jtLOL) April 24, 2012
@Lizardoid @AngryBlackLady And you’re twisting and writhing to avoid talking about Obama eating dogs. You’re trapped. #ObamaEatsDogs
— ‘Jim’ ‘Treacher’ (@jtLOL) April 24, 2012
@Lizardoid @AngryBlackLady Just because you’re not laughing doesn’t mean we’re not, Chuck. :) #ObamaEatsDogs
— ‘Jim’ ‘Treacher’ (@jtLOL) April 24, 2012
@Lizardoid @AngryBlackLady That’s why we keep poking you with sticks, Chuck.
— ‘Jim’ ‘Treacher’ (@jtLOL) April 24, 2012
@Lizardoid @AngryBlackLady I mean, your one & only achievement in life was 8 years ago, and now you can’t even talk about it. #FreeDanRather
— ‘Jim’ ‘Treacher’ (@jtLOL) April 24, 2012
@Lizardoid @AngryBlackLady Relax, Chuck. No need for your petulant name-calling. Let’s get back to the fact that #ObamaEatsDogs.
— ‘Jim’ ‘Treacher’ (@jtLOL) April 24, 2012
@Lizardoid @AngryBlackLady I care, Chuck. So you don’t feel guilty at all about what you did to Dan Rather on behalf of those wingnuts?
— ‘Jim’ ‘Treacher’ (@jtLOL) April 24, 2012
Just another day in the life of Mr. Irrelevant.
