Charles is doing his best to brandish his Leftists credentials. He has attacked Christians/Religious Jews, Anti-Darwinists, Supports Kosovo, Supports Global Warming Theory and now is bashing Beck and Fox News.
About Glenn Beck’s Extremist Rhetoric
Michael A. Cohen has a piece in Politico today about the over-the-top, irresponsible extremism and conspiracy theories promulgated by weeping Glenn Beck: Extremist rhetoric won’t rebuild GOP.
He’s right. This turn toward the extreme right on the part of Fox News is troubling, and will achieve nothing in the long run except further marginalization of the GOP—unless people start behaving like adults instead of angry kids throwing tantrums and ranting about conspiracies and revolution.
Chuckles doesn’t seem to remember the Left did this when Bush was in power and it worked. Nancy comments on how FOX is going Far Right.
Since the election, I’ve noticed a very marked shift toward the far right on Fox News.
Really Chuckles, I don’t see that. They are just exposing Obama’s Totalitarian agenda, I guess we must salute Obama ‘our Dear Leader’, like you Charles. Charles is a Totalitarian who believes we all must think like him.

It’s a badge of honor to be disliked by Charles “Nancy” Johnson.
LGF1.0 has really gone to the dogs
Chuck has really turned into a self-important prick. Funny how he sits and points fingers at Beck or at how Fox is becoming more right (like thats a bad thing considering all its up against). I used to enjoy the blog but now everytime I go there and read the comments of his boot lickers I want to grab someone by the throat.
Hot Air caught on a little bit to the LGF BS Charles is spewing when he tried to pawn off the Bush bowing pic. NOPE not bowing Chuck no matter how badly you want to pawn it.
Yep…Nancy boy is about right.
You might like my post about his closing the lounge the other day…
http://www.whatfur.blogtownhall.com
Charles also was a liberal but it’s really come out in the past year.
This is probably why he shutdown the Lounge, the folks there were very conservative, too much for Charles liking.
Another one under the bus. I thought O had that one patented, but CJ wins hands down. His little island is getting more isolated everyday. His recent postings show a bit of paranoia I haven’t seen in the past.
I like listening to Beck better than watching him, it’s a little distracting.
The funniest part is MandyManners… Bible Teacher (from the Glenn Beck Apocalypse thread, comment #8).
Yeh! “STFD”Mandy, graduate of “STFU”School of Theology!
Fuck Chuckles and all the ass-clowns who continue to read what the piece of shit has to say. Losers, one and all…
Other than in one’s cherished opinion, is there any actual correlation between “hyper-’conservativeness’” (of the Beck variety) and a “loss of votes” in reality?
As Rodan correctly points out, the Democrat party ran full speed ahead to the far, far left, ran a far left Social Worker (who was friends with Socialist Terrorists, Che supporting hippies, and America Hating Mentors) and beat the living daylights out of the Republican Candidate.
And as we well know, that candidate was a ‘hyper-’Conservative’” of the Glenn Beck mold….oh, wait….um……..NO HE WASN’T!
1.0 seems to be falling into the Liberal intellectualism trap of believing that what you say, if said with hope and passion is automatically the reality. Unfortunately for them however, this isn’t how the real world works. The reality is that a kooky, crazy, far left Social Worker defeated the Republican’s middle of the road, pandering to both sides, “Maverick”, John McCain.
Furthermore, when the Republicans ran the Bible-thumping, “Jesus is my role-model”, “I talk to G-d everyday” George W. Bush, they won two Presidential elections. Lastly, let us not forget how Ronald Reagan felt about G-d, religion, free-markets, Government entanglement, Government control, and other issues of “hyper-’Conservatism’”. I guess that is why he couldn’t win an election either….oh, wait, never mind!
So I ask my question again: other than in the clouded minds of a pied piper and his marry followers, is there any actual correlation between running a “hyper-’Conservative’” and actually losing elections.
Wrath, he’s using dem math.
The GOP should alienate 80% (conservatively speaking) of their base to bring over .5% of the couple percent that claim that is their problem with the GOP.
Well it works for the dems alright. Notsomuch the GOP.
Well this is odd:
Earlier today I commented that on the earlier Glenn Beck Thread at 1.0 (Re The Video) that Charles got all bent out of shape when “The Monster” responded regarding the Obama bowing incident. Charles said at comment #137 that “Dick Cheney bowed for King Abdullah too” then provided a link to Cheney lower his head to receive a medal from the king. The Monster replied showing that there were differences between Obama’s bow, and the head tilt of Cheney (and Bush) to receive medals.
This of course, got “The Monster” a dressing down by Charles in comment #674 of that same thread. Charles stated that “I’m finished arguing this point. If you want to believe there’s something really, truly, especially horrible about Barack Obama’s bow to Abdullah, knock yourself out.”
So the odd part is that Mr. “I’m done arguing this point” brings it up again on the Glenn Beck thread we are discussing here by stating at comment #396 “Uh oh…Conservative Blogger: Bush Also Bowed Before the Saudi King – HispanicBusiness.com (providing this link: http://www.hispanicbusiness.com/news/2009/4/6/conservative_blogger_bush_also_bowed_before.htm)
[Then making a full thread about it - and stating something about "sanity" I just don't understand]
Not only is it once again Charles who brought up the topic, but he links not to someone showing how Bush bowed to the Saudi King but just someone discussing LGF 1.0’s thread on it. (I’m sure most on 1.0 won’t spend their time figuring this out before they take a mental note of more “proof” that Bush bowed)
In the event some are still not clear on where Nancy resides on the political spectrum, he is now further left than Camille Paglia.
Not to mention his lack of honesty about it.
Fox is turning hard right? I watched Neil Cavuto agree that only an armed cop or armed security guard could have stopped that shooting in NY at the immigrant center. (My contentioned is that armed CITIZENS could do that as well)
Fox is doing to Obama what they did to Bush…. pointing out the events an actions, then having folks discussing the good and bad points of those same events and actions.
I guess Charles is now of the mind that THINKING of Obama in a negative light is somehow radically right wing…. perhaps soon will think it unamerican, unpatriotic and treasonous?
I probably give 1.0 too much credit but I often wonder if he isn’t just stroking his ego by trying to see how far he can push the minions around.
pick something they used to hardline believe in and see if he can’t get them to flip on it.
I think there is quite a bit of truth to what you say, Bayonet. You’re pretty sharp! (Pun intended.)
This is just further affirmation for me that Charles Johnson has turned into a lunatic.
He’s already gone after and attacked mainstream conservatives such as Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, and I forget who else.
On top of that, Johnson and some of the more prominent LGFers (such as “Zombie”) complained about, or ranted and railed against, social conservatives – which I also view as a betrayal.
I’d think by now any readers Johnson has remaining at his blog will finally have their eyes open and leave that insane asylum he calls a blog.
When you’re at a blog that pretends to be conservative, and yet the blog owner participates and encourages the bashing of well-known conservatives, you know something is not on the ‘up and up.’
Shut up about Fox News already, Charles Johnson. Stick another box of twinkies down your throat and maintain that extra fat you’ve managed to put on since your website has rapidly declined into a cesspool of unintelligent rantings against anyone who doesn’t think like you.
And by think like you, I mean are completely clueless and wandering about lashing at anyone near them similar to a wild animal infected with rabies.
[Paragraph deleted by WrathofG-d for being wayyyy over the line]
Charles is the keith olbermann of the net…and LGF…is now MSNBC.
I thought Jihadwatch’s response to Chuckles was very well done. Kind of sucks when a neo-Nazi group links to your site along with Hamas and other neo-Nazi groups. I guess according to ole Chuckle’s logic he is also supporters of those groups?
How can the people still on 1.0 still go there and read the articles and not start to scratch their heads and think “WTF is going on here.” He has completely lost it. When will he make an alliance with Daily Kos and HuffPO?
BUck….. so both Jihadwatch AND Hamas were both linked on the same site?!
Jihadwatch supports Hamas!!!!1!1!!!eleventy!1!!
/ Charles
Charles is on an ego trip. He think he has a power base.
no. LGF 1.0 and Hamas were linked.

In any case, this little Canadian hate party has a lengthy list of links on its site — a peculiar amalgam of mainstream and generally benign sites (CBS News, CNN, Fox News, National Review), some controversial sites, and many leftist sites, jihadist sites, neo-Nazi sites, and racist sites. Among them are (and I am reproducing them exactly as they appear on the site’s link list): 911 Conspiracy.Com; Ahmadinejad’s Personal ‘Blog’; Alalam News (Iran); Al Basrah (Iraqi Resistance Report); Al Jazeera English; Al-Qassam Brigades (Hamas); American National Socialist Workers Party; American Nationalist Union; Arab News (Saudi Arabia); Aryan Guard; Aryan Nations; British National Party; Common Dreams; Counterpunch; Crooks and Liars; Daily KOS; David Duke-dot-com; David Irving (FocalPoint); DEBKA (Zionist Rumors) [Yes, that's how they have it listed -- RS]; French National Front; Hal Turner; Huffington Post; Jew Watch; Jihad Unspun; Kavkaz Center (Chechen); Keystone State Skinheads {Pennsylvania); KUNA (Kuwait News Agency); La Raza; La Voz de Aztlan; Luwaran.Com (Islamic Separatists in the Philippines); Media Matters; Mother Jones Online; Muslim Brotherhood; Nation Of Islam; National Socialist Movement; National Socialist Party of Canada; Neturei Karta (Jews United Against Zionism); New Black Panther Party; No War For Israel; NSDAP-AO / NEW ORDER NEWSPAPER; Oswald Mosley.Com; Palestinian Think Tank; Racetraitor.org; Racial Compact; Racial Nationalist Party of America (USA); Real Jew News; Revolution Muslim. Com; Saskatchewan KKK; White America; White Honor; White Pride TV; White Revolution.Com; Zundelsite, and many more. Brussels Journal and Vlaams Blok (not Vlaams Belang) are linked, which must mean they’re neo-Nazis, right? Well, also linked is that burgeoning little hate site, Little Green Footballs. No Jihad Watch.
Heh, There’s 11 million dollars to be given to Microsoft to build a bridge on their own campus.
Meanwhile, nearby, there’s the South Park bridge that has a horrible rating (4 out of 400. the St Paul bridge that collapsed a year or so ago had a rating 10 times higher at 40) and needs to be rebuilt…..
nice. Thanks government. way to help ‘main street’
Hackers from China and Russia hacked into our electrical grid, per a recent report.
Why the hell is our electrical grid even on a network that can be accessed by the public?
The “rev” Sharpton and ACORN have come together to fight against what they consider to be a reign of terror….. against SHerrif Joe Arpaio.
That evil white guy!
Sherri Joe Arpaio is hated at LGF, from my memory. He was celebrated once, now he is hated, just like Senator McCarthy.
Since the election, it seems that Chuckie has begun a jihad against social conservatives and people of faith. He has a misguided view that they are responsible for the loss and that they are kooks who must be driven out of the party in order for it to be a viable force in american politics.
I feel that the opposite is true; that the RINO’s and “moderates” have wrecked the party and must be ejected from it. People such as Arlen Specter, Charlie Crist, Ah-nold, Collin Powell and
Olympia Snow are more closely aligned with the democrats platform than with the GOP, and they damage the party by diluting our core principles.
The Republican party needs to return to the issues which it was founded on: low taxes, limited government, encouraging productivity and a strong defense. That message will be appealing to many voters in the next election, after they have had a taste of the socialism which is being implemented right now by Obama and the democrats.
tunnelrat. Agreed. The GOP needs to drop the anti-abortion, religious right bullshit that it sought to embrace in the past.
#26 Buck
You sound like Charles Johnson
What is to be gained by alienating a large percentage of the party’s base?
Check this one out from Atlas and Jihad Watch. Atlas claiming that Charles needs “a mental health intervention” among other things! This is hilarious!

#27 Tunnelrat. Not at all. I just have never agreed that the GOP needed to push that social agenda. You got it right. Focus on smaller government, less entitlements, lower taxes, strong defense and encourage productivity.
Let people live their life and make those decisions themselves without a nanny state.
This is a great post.

? Do full term babies choose to have their brains sucked out while being delivered ?
Buck…
Nancy is calling.
Feel free to pick and choose what you wish to agree or disagree with the Religious Right about but please don’t refer to them as one lump and sorry abortion is not a bargaining point.
Thanks for proving my point. The social agenda is not what the GOP should be focusing on. It’s too divisive and too easy to get people off topic. Focus on what it has always focused on: small gov, lower taxes, etc etc. its too easy for the dems to throw these arguements out and start peeling supporters from the GOP.
There is a reason why CJ keeps opening up registration every other week, he is losing his old posters (such as myself) by the dozens every day with his erratic behavior. Too bad because his blog (like Andrew Sullivan’s) used to be one of my first reads of the day.
Let me rephrase…as it did not really give me the time allotted to edit.
I do not associate myself with the Religious Right but I do associate myself with much of what they stand for. You can say anything you want here but your camp’s flag looks alot like the one 1.0 flys. Just sayin…
I agree that the GOP needs to back off a bit on the social agenda particularly abortion. It needs to focus on low taxes, small government, national defense, American exceptionalism, color blind society, tough on crime, – all with a bit of a social safety net (i.e. unemployment insurance, lower health care costs, etc.)
Buck, your point is not proven at all. And besides, your statement about “religous right Bullshit” is interesting. If what we think is “Bullshit” and you’re saying people won’t vote for Republicans because they don’t agree with said Bullshit, it sounds like those people don’t value the many things they share with us Religous Right Bullshit-heads. Otherwise they’d overlook those different positions because they felt so strongly about smaller gubmint.
Another question, since 54% of Catholics voted for the Messiah, are you suggesting the Catholic church drop it’s teachings so more of them would vote for Republicans?
Darwinist Rage Boy now bashing Newt.

Murder is a social issue?
Or denying equal rights is a social issue?
I think there is a political party for you, its call the democratic party, so quit trying to turn the GOP into dhimmcrat-light.

“When people stop believing in God, they don’t believe in nothing — they believe in anything.”
-GK Chesterton
How fitting.
“A great many of those who ‘debunk’ traditional…values have in the background values of their own which they believe to be immune from the debunking process.”
-C.S. Lewis
I think the GOP needs to stop kissing up to Big Corpoprations. The GOP’s silence as the effect of Globalization ravaged the Middle Class with the Outsourcing of good paying jobs and stagnating wages is what did the Reps in. They need to realize Big Businesses/Wall Street are not their friends. In fact Wall Street is Pro Democrat. Republicans need a Pro-Middle Class/Worker/Small Business agenda to create Good paying jobs and tax the savings of Corporations get from outsourcing jobs. I believe Companies that create in jobs in America should pay less taxes than those who outsource.
Tax Cuts for the Rich and the Wall Street class did nothing for us economically in the 2000’s. The GOP needs a new Economic agenda.
Let the Rich Democrats pay high taxes, they like it anyway.
I think what Buck and the hate site 1.0 want is for the GOP to be only fiscally conservative while having zero moral values or just not expressing any traditional moral values in public which is also known as dhimmcrat-light. Pandering to the fickle masses, or whatever the latest poll numbers show.
What is ironic about this is Buck has his moral values although I would claim he has a lack thereof, but they are still his values and his values trumps mine or ours. He advocates his values above others values and then decries the others having any values.
If Buck wants to twist himself in knots and throw what little values he has right out the door with the hope that fiscal conservatives can finally and hopefully win just one election sometime in the near future, I say have fun Buck. But I would leave the blazing pandering to the experts in said crap being the dhimmcrats, its very unbecoming for the GOP to do such things.
The GOP losses just one election and the pseudo-conservatives all scream the sky is falling, the sky is falling.
Sorry Bar. But I look at how the Democrats were able to pick apart the party. I never said my values trumped anyone elses values and stated my opinion. Plain and simple. If you want to attack me and my character because you disagree with what I say that’s fine. But I would rather we get into a civil discussion about the future of the GOP. I am far from twisting in knots and compromising my values. All I stated was that the bigger issues in the party, the core issues of the party have been out of focus and that is really why (in my opinion) the GOP is lost right now. I feel it is less about the social agenda and more about righting itself.
The GOP didn’t lose just one election but it got beaten badly (or that’s how other GOP’ers see it). The dems have the momentuem and we need to take it away. I never mentioned anything about abortion or abandoning any sort of values. But look what kind of hatred, vitrol and tar/feathering I received. All, I said was that the GOP need to stop pushing the social agenda and focus on its core compentency. Not give up or turn away from its values.
It’s funny, you guys know nothing about my values, believes or religion but because I said something that didn’t completely agree with your mindset I belong in the dhimmi party?
The Truth is, the GOP doesn’t want to be in power. They don’t want the responsibility.
For decades, they were the minority party. They didn’t have to be responsible for anything and they didn’t have to produce anything. They could sit back and whine.
Even, in the 90’s, when they finally took back power with a new method of Republicanism that embraced Conservativism and the future welfare of the country, the Republicans still bowed to the Democrats and made a point to make sure the Democrats could have their way.
You don’t compromise with what is right with those who are wrong. Yet the Republicans did. They didn’t want to bear the responsibility. Now, in 2006, they lost the majority and are back where they want to be.
Republicans are now moving to the left. Why? You don’t have to produce results when you’re on the left. You just have to make the people FEEL like you’re producing results.
Conservatives analyze, think and plan. Liberals feel and whine and seethe.
