We all know that the right wing is constantly cooking up outrageous outrages about Barack Obama. But there's also a little cottage industry of wingnut bloggers who perform the same function -- directed at me. Case in point, climate change denier and far right loon Tim Blair, who phones in another ...
Tim Blair is a funny person! Now he's demanding an apology from me. What will he think next? This time he dug up an LGF post from the presidential election, in which I quoted some excerpts from Barack Obama's autobiography about his prejudice toward white people, earlier in his life. (As ...

These days if I bother to read one of Tim Blair's phoned-in attack pieces, I increasingly get the feeling that he thinks his readers are complete idiots. His style has been reduced to tossing out distorted accusations in one-line sentences, then sitting back and letting his readers respond with the ...

Tim Blair thinks people have only started leaving anti-Israel comments at LGF since my new “leftish conversion.” He says these are my “new friends.” Blair, you ignorant slut. People have been leaving anti-Israel comments at LGF for many years. It happens every time there’s a phony international incident like this. The ...
Today, Australian climate change denier Tim Blair breaks a huge blog-related story that had somehow gone unnoticed before he began digging — Blair has uncovered the stunning fact that during the presidential election I was opposed to Barack Obama. How did Blair discover this amazing amount of heretofore unknown evidence that ...
Climate change denier Tim Blair is suing a fellow Australian blogger for accusing him of using a sock puppet account: Tim Blair Vs Crikey : Stupid Blog War Now Wasting NSW Supreme Court’s Time. Rumor has it that Tim also plans to sue the Arctic ice cap for damaging his reputation ...

I’d just like to express my gratitude to the gods of the Internet that I’m not associated with irrational anti-science lunatics like Tim Blair any more. UPDATE at 3/7/10 9:04:59 pm: And white supremacist blogger Robert Stacy McCain is chiming in too, with another thousand-word essay! It’s a two-fer! I must say, it’s ...

Tim Blair is still outrageously outraged that Danny Glover said global warming caused the Haitian earthquake. (He didn’t.) Blair links to a Bill O’Reilly segment that blatantly misquotes what Glover did say: [Video] Here’s the misquote: There’s all this hell because of global warming, there’s all this hell because of climate change … ...

In today’s outrageous outrage, tu quoque specialists everywhere are faking outrageous outrage over remarks made by leftist actor Danny Glover in a phone interview. The screaming was so high-pitched I was motivated to check out the video recording: [Video] This is the section being pulled out of context: The threat of what ...

At his Daily Telegraph blog, live from Australia, Tim Blair has a new piece and it contains some funny stuff. The funny part isn’t in Tim’s Snide Potshot school of writing, though — it’s in one of his punchlines. Blair says I have “reverted,” and links to this LGF post ...
Tim Blair tries to play “gotcha” by searching through LGF’s archives: CHANGE. Here’s his post, which he doesn’t seem to feel needs any further explanation: Then. Now. The problem with this kind of context-free smear job, Tim, is that you could just as easily have chosen this LGF post for your terse ...
Well, this is a bit of a shock from Tim Blair. Hang in there, Tim, we’ll be pulling for you.
