I read up more about Lynn and so no big deal yet. It really is just a sign of how bad the right treated Johnson that he has come to this.

He is as much a sign of what’s wrong as 2006 and 2008 where. As much as the fact Obama and the Dems are royally screwing up and losing poll support, while the GOP barely budges.

Dot, dot, dot.

Anyway, does it matter if Palin’s ghostwriter knows someone who CJ doesn’t like?

What does that really have to do with Palin’s book?

And, if you hire someone to do a job, do you screen them to be sure they have acceptable views? Or, do you hire them for their talent? Lynn Vincent has been given a lot of praise for her talent as a writer.

I don’t even care if Bill Ayers ghostwrote Obama’s book. What bothers me about that is that Obama lied about it, and lied about his relationship with Bill Ayers.

CJ is also very defensive about Obama….and called any allegations that Bill Ayers ghostwrote Obama’s book a right wing rumor. I guess he hasn’t heard about Anderson’s book and his sources.

Either way….

If people want to complain about CJ, the proper place would be over at his blog…..not here.

I only bring it up now because I find it odd that someone would dump Palin because of her ghostwriter (or friend of her ghostwriter).

Anyway, if this all surfaces as a big deal in the blog world…..I’m sure Palin will smack it down in her usual way.

And, maybe she’ll be that sweet Christian who wins CJ over (with understanding and outreach) at the end of the day and after long debates . Who knows?

Sounds like she has a best seller already:

“A publishing industry source told POLITICO that they “cannot remember a non-fiction book taking off like this in the pre-order market. It became number one only a couple of hours after nothing more than a date announcement. It is truly unprecedented.”

I still think CJ is more than salvageable. It would take some Christian understanding and outreach – something well beyond the far right and their anger.

Tell me dbostan, do you see Charles as evil, or hurt and angry? What is in YOUR heart my friend?

I had a good deal of respect for your opinions, despite the fact that we disagreed on many issues, especially pertaining to how to deal with illegal immigrants and illegal immigration in general, and what the solution to the repubic problem is.
But I am losing my respect when you take CJ’s side.

Maybe you are not informed about his history of stabbing the conservative, respectable bloggers, in the back and undermining our side in the most disgusting way.

If you are aware of that and yet, you still take his side, well, I think my respect is forever gone.

Sorry to say that.

Furthermore, this strategy has been in place for a long time.

Spies?!?!?! Gee, that puts our spies in danger with this announcement.

As far as the “whore” reference, well, Ashley Dupre made a living by taking money for sex, so literally and legally that’s exactly what she is. It may be quite rude to say so openly, but it’s still the truth, and that’s the word that gets applied to those who do that kind of thing. I’ll agree that it would have been much nicer if he had used the word “prostitute,” but “Escort” is just buying into the lifestyle a little too much for my taste. In the end, the only real difference between those 3 words is the percieved class level of the clientele they serve, I suppose.

As far as that group *ever* leaning conservative – I have to say that any group which considers it “Treason” to fail to believe in Global Warming is so far gone that they can only be considered enemies from now on.

In their eyes, even *you* are now a Traitor to the Nation, AJ. As am I. There’s no coming back from that point.

Agreed. But the far right needs to stand down too and just let it be.

As to Charles, it is never good to become the thing you hate. Same coin just the opposite side. He should stand down and re-think this. His character and honor is at stake, imho.

I always had the impression that the right was more interested in getting the truth, for good or bad.

The Taliban & Al-Qaeda has been very busy Killing spys whether real or imagined for the better part of a year.

The issue here is whether Obama’s policy wonks actually confirmed something or are engaged in a disinformation campaign for some other non-human national technical means.

Strategypage.com has been reporting a “surge” of intelligence assets and intelligence specialists to Afghanistan ahead of the Obama decision to go with either counter terrorism (fewer Troops) or counter insergency (more troops) military options.

LGF? Pamela Geller will tell you all about LGF!

Obama, how LONG UNTIL YOU FINALLY ADMIT HE IS NOT ON OUR SIDE?

Obama and his cronies are a bunch of immature narcissistic neophytes who cannot keep their mouth’s shut.

One more thing. I never said Johnson was right or not being vile or paranoid. I said I knew WHY he was being vile and paranoid, and it is because of the crap you get from far right wing fanatics when you dare disagree with them. Johnson is now mirroring the filth people threw at him for not being a true conservative. He got that way because of vile and paranoid people on the right.

I tend to care less what they think, so I never get that bitter or angry. But I have seen it happen many times – too many times. Johnson may never come back into the conservative fold, and that is a loss. We could loose 100 McCain’s without a breaking a stride.

LGF is a massive site with a massive following. Now they could all lean away from conservatives. Not good.

What makes you think I didn’t? Go to McCain’s site and search for
‘whore’ and read for yourself. I want nothing to do with the guy and have little respect for those who do.

I just don’t go out of my way to make a big deal about it.
