BUSTED! Lefty Blogger Charles Johnson Caught Scrubbing Evidence He Once Called Ground Zero Mosque Imam an “Islamic Supremacist”…

Before scrubbing:

After scrubbing: You can clearly see the Husky Ponytailed Blogger went back and deleted the evidence of his flaming hypocrisy, he’s has been working overtime lately calling those who describe Imam Rauf as an Islamic supremacist as “Islamophobes, racists and bigots”…

      It is worse than a lie, really, because he is changing the evidence someone else might use to back up their arguement to make them seem to be a liar. Without screenshots, Charles would just challenge you to prove it. That is a pretty derranged mind at work. He must spend hours pouring over his archives. I wouldn’t trust anything I read in them now. Who knows what he has added or subtracted?

    Like most liberals, what he did in the past in not important – it is only how they are TODAY. Hence how “Grand Wizard” Bryd was such a great representative of the Civil Rights movement. Because there was no way he continued to harbor any racists thoughts or feelings. And how, amazingly, African-American voters in WV voted for the man en mass for decades..

    It is something worse. Wholeheartedly giving oneself over to evil goes far beyond the damage that a mere nervous breakdown could do.

    My brother and I both got kicked off, me twice, the last time for simply being minimally contrarian. He says, if you feel like you need to post at that site, why don’t you take a belt sander to your arm until that feeling goes away. He’s a doctor.

    From Chuck

    “I removed two words from the post. The entire post is still there for anyone to read. The words were removed because they were wrong. It’s kind of silly to say I should footnote and document insignificant changes like this.”

    Anyone got a screen shot of him blasting someone in the past for changing a previous post?

    I remember him screeching about “Memory Holing” done by others, but alas….my web-foo for finding that stuff is weak.

    Oceania has always been at war with Eurasia. To suggest otherwise is doubleplusungood.

    Chuckles habits of not only deleting user accounts but wiping out all their past posts, in additional to his “disemvoweler” to render any contentious posts as gibberish is pure blog Stalinism.

    And his mindless followers think it’s cute.

      There’s a lot of embarrassed silence and “let’s change the subject” in that thread too. I predict a short, largely off-topic thread as loozards work on coming to grips with yet another ratcheting down of their ethics and intellectual integrity, excusing Charle’s behavior. Loozard Obdicut is possibly the most obsequiously psychophantic about it, and so far his comment is stuck at 0 updings:

      I would love it if all the people whining about this did exactly the same thing; edit your blogs to remove things that you sincerely believed at the time but now have come to realize are not only wrong, but potentially damaging to others. That would be responsible.

      Charles’ defense conveniently conflates the ‘meta-error/mistake/wrongness’ of inconvenient historical political incorrectness with true errors, like misspellings, bad punctuation, grammatical goofs.

      Buzz should re-do Nick Lowe’s song “Little Hitler” => “Little Stalin”…

    First it was mild anger at being unfairly banished. Then fascination at the Mad Blogger Disease eating away at their collective mind.
    Now nothing but belly laughs at Charlie and his remaining family of true believers, hiding out in the wilderness, waiting for Dick Cheney and Col. Klink to kick in the ranch house door and ruin their Utopian fantasy.
    Laughing so hard my side hurts!

    “Let me translate this for ya Chunky: “I now have to re-write the history of my ridiculous blog so that I can get in on the money that Kos and Huffpo are making.

    Unintentional irony alert:

    Charles – do you consider Christopher Hitchens to be mistaken in his opinion of Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf too? He doesn’t quite accuse him of being an Islamic supremacist, but he comes close, and does use several terms that are equally, if not more, pejorative than that.

    * 123- (reply to 120 ) Charles +1 [Mon, Sep 13, 2010 10:34:44am ]
    Yes, I do. Hitchens repeats some of the talking points of the anti-mosque crowd, unfortunately — talking points that are debunked. He should do a little more research before taking the nonsense that’s been circulated about Rauf as accurate.

    * 124- (reply to 120 ) Charles +4 [Mon, Sep 13, 2010 10:39:09am ] 1 reply
    As a “Logician,” by the way, I’m sure you’re familiar with the logical fallacy known as the “appeal to authority.”

    Here Charles, in #123, ‘refutes’ Hitchens’ characterization of Rauf with, uh …. a content-free assertion and an appeal to his (Charles’) own authority. And then in #124 …

    133 comments and the thread is dead. Time to move on loozards, nothing to see here…

    Here the tireless sychophant Obdicut explains to Walter that what Charles writes (at the time he writes it) is the truth, doggone it, and that LGF top posts aren’t just bullshit opinions of Charles, they’re like academic books and encyclopedias.

    D’uh Walter !!!

    If you’re redaction’s and corrections were documented or footnoted… otherwise… it’s called the Ministry of Truth.

    o 140- (reply to 22 ) Obdicut [Mon, Sep 13, 2010 11:34:00am ]
    No, Walter, the Ministry Of Truth edited things to conform with what the government wanted people to believe had occurred. They didn’t update things with the truth. If you actually claim you never edit anything, and then do, then obviously that’s wrong. But no, most academic books, encyclopedias, and the like that change information do not note that it is different between versions. Where did you get the idea that they did?
