re: #122 Charles Johnson

Weird how off-hand comments can strike a chord with so many people.

One of the reasons I check LGF daily. It’s a bunch of off-hand comments that can and do get dissected to the bone. It’s all pretty much off-hand, until people start listening.

Case in point: Charles’s Why I Parted Ways With The Right blog post was just an off-hand comment, something Charles admits he wrote inside of 10 minutes. An off-hand comment which was nothing new to regular readers of LGF, but then it took off and next thing you know Charles is on the radio with Alan Colmes and being attacked by every wingnut blogger from all directions.

Same goes for RatherGate. Charles made a .gif - out of curiosity, an off-hand comment - comparing two documents and proving they were fraudulent.

The internet, can be pretty exciting!
