An Inteview with LGF Blog Founder Charles Johnson: Why I Parted Ways with the Right

2010-03-08T13:56:00.010-05:00

Hattip: littlegreenfootballs.com
From: www.dangerousminds.net

Charles Johnson: Why I Parted Ways with the Right Part I

Charles Johnson: Why I Parted Ways with the Right Part II

It was the blog post heard 'round the world. When Charles Johnson wrote Why I Parted Ways With The Right in the space of a few minutes and posted it on his popular Little Green Footballs blog, he had no idea the firestorm it would set off. Nasty denunciations, death threats and a New York Times magazine feature article later, Charles Johnson joined me for a lively discussion about what happened to him, the Darwin-hating, know-nothing Creationists and the frenzied insanity (and racism) of the anti-Obama right ....

ANALYSIS

Of course, skeptic cat is not a political blog by any stretch of the imagination. Skeptic Cat, himself, literally gets ALL of his news from Comedy Central and, with his new work schedule, only one or two days a week, at that. This particular blogger, Charles Johnson of littlegreenfootballs.com caught the attention of the Skeptic Cat Blog through his railing against pseudoscience in his now famous blog entry Why I Parted Ways With The Right.

To be fair, there is an equal amount of pseudoscience, short sightedness and, yes, bigotry in certain parts of the Left-Wing-Blogosphere as well. Anti-Zionist rhetoric I have particularly found to be disquieting. I also feel the film What the #$*! Do We Know!? to have been every bit as deceptive as Ben Stein's - Expelled: No Intellegence Allowed ... Perhaps a bit more so in that Stein's Film made it quite clear that Intelligent Design Creationism was not accepted at all by the scientific establishment whereas WTBDWK would have had you believe that modern physics supports juvenile fantasies about Channeling the spirits of 35,000 year-old warriors from Atlantis, etc ... And one could go on and on from the pernicious promotion of homeopathy on the Huffington Post to Dennis Kucinich claiming to be in contact with extraterrestrials ....

That said, I haven't seen folks who are into New Age sorts of things, as of yet, attempt to use the force of law to impose their beliefs upon the nation. A case could be made that America was founded upon certain Occult ideas equally as valid as the case being made for The Declaration Curriculum and yet no one on the "Religious Left" seems to be attempting to press their rights in quite that way .... YET!

George Michael - Monkey
Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving into it -
Do you love your monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey?

lalala

Oh, I count to ten
But I don't know how and I don't know when
To open my eyes
If you kiss me again
Like you did just now, like you did just then
Do it again
I've had the rest
Now it's time I had the best
So you tell me that you won't do anymore

Well I'd write your heart a letter
But I think you know me better
If I keep on askin' baby, maybe
I'll get what I'm askin' for

Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving in to it -
Do you love your monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey?

Oh I hate your friends
But I don't know how and I don't know when
To open your eyes
Yes the monkey's back again
Do it again
Do you want him now like you did back then?
Do it again
I tried my best
But your head is such a mess
So I guess that I don't want you anymore

Well you say you care about me
That you just can't do without me
But you keep on dancin' baby
'Til that monkey has you on the floor

Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving into it
Do you love the monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey?

Don't look now
There's a monkey on your back
Don't look now
There's a monkey on you...
Don't look now
There's a monkey on your back
Don't look now
There's a monkey on you...

So you tell me that you won't do anymore
If I keep on askin' baby, maybe
I'll get what I'm askin' for

Why can't you do it?
Why can't you set your monkey free?
Always giving into it
Do you love the monkey or do you love me?
Why can't you do it
Why do I have to share my baby with a monkey?

Da Yoopers- A Love Song Called Diarreah
I know it's getting late
And i know we had a date lucia
I hate to make you wait
Cause it would be so great to see ya
Tears fall from my eyes
And i must apologize lucia
I’ll have to stay at home
So i called you on the phone
Cause i'm stuck here on the throne
With diarrhea
I thought it was only gas
So i went and let one pass
Then i stood there in a trance
As i filled my brand new pants

My mother brought me soup
But it only made me poop lucia
I never should have ate
But it sounded like a great idea
You know it really hurts
When you got the hershey squirts lucia
There's no paper to be seen
So i used people magazine
And it makes me wanna scream
Diarrhea

I love you dear with all my heart
But i can't go out with liquid farts
I wouldn't have to break our date
If only i could constipate

I know you got the hots
But i really got the trots lucia
There's no need to scream and shout
Cause tomorrow we'll go out i guarantee ya
I know you need your man
So i came up with a plan lucia
I’ll take a cork and super glue
Pound it in there with my shoe
And then i’ll be all through
With diarrhea
