#1 Charles is a freaking nutcase dictator and a piss-poor photographer - see this delicious takedown I found courtesy of exurban league

#3 We are all racists, if our opinions run contrary to those that cannot reason. Welcome to the asylum.

#4 A question I've been wondering out:

Is it time to de-link him from the list of bloggers?

#5 Rantburg and LGF were my 2 original blogs I followed. I still love the burg, but I stopped going to LGF when he went after Pam Geller as a Fascist. LGF has been dropped by powerline, ace of spades, etc. Stacy McCain has REALLY gone after LGF and there are some very good vids out the about the LGF meltdown.

Damn! Longest post ever!

#6 Is it time to de-link him from the list of bloggers?

It was time, probably, about a year back. IMHO.

#7 I hate doing it, though. LGF was one of our original links.

#8 Of course, Fred. Perhaps you can start a new category: Bloggers who used to be informative.

#9 I was trying to hold on to hope that Chuck hadn't really gone all wobbly, but he's finally lost me too. I'm honestly concerned that he might have an undiagnosed brain tumor or something....

#10 Fred - it's not the "same" Charles. If you don't believe it, post a bland non-offensive, but skeptical comment questioning his position on any of his pet issues. You'll be banned in a nanosecond, and his little toadies will rip the empty space where your comment was to shreds. Truly the Red Queen Territory

#11 I was also a LGF fan. He was instrumental in Rathergate.

I don't recognize what I'm reading anymore, though. It's like Charles of 2006 has been replaced by a pod person.

The few times I've gone there in the last month, I channel my inner Cartman: "Dude, WTF?"

#12 Sadly, I haven't gone there in a while, either. He's changed - and not for the better.

Your blog, your call, Fred - but, as Frank says, it's not the Charles we knew anymore. Schade. :-(

#13 Wait awhile Fred. I came here from LGF.

Beauzeux was the keyword - I think it was a ShipAdmiral K post there.

#14 Charles' problem was that he wanted particularly those on the European Right to adhere to American sensitivies about race.

I don't think he understood that, while an American is an American citizen, a German (or other European nationality) is an ethnic German.

#15 Stopped reading that doofus last year. LGF makes me look sane.

#16 Quoting from a comment I made a month ago on a

Powerline thread,

I hadn't been visiting much, since Charles' posts were becoming less interesting to me. But I got the impression that the commenters were a closely selected group. So, when he bashed Palin once again, I tested my theory by making a comment about him kicking his cage of gibbering sycophants just to listen to the noise. Sure enough, I'm now a proud member of BALGF. Fair enough, Charles, you ban me, I unlink you, problem solved.

Why give him the hits? He's no friend.
