Getting kinda hard to keep ignoring this story, isn't Charles. Schmuck. Guess you were too busy bashing creationists from you ivory tower...

it's a pretty low bar to set for ivory-towerism when all you have to do is not believe in creationism...

I love reading LGF, mainly because Charles is a rational conservative but his site attracts the entire conservative spectrum, so it's hilarious to see the WHARGARBLE ensue when he posts something against creationism, for example.

i don't think the argument is that he's not hateful enough, just that he's not wingnutty enough

Andy Martin - Believes in a global Jewish conspiracy and believes that Obama's birth certificate is a forgery.

Phil Berg - 911 troofer and believes that Obama's birth certificate is a forgery.

Jerome Corsi - 911 troofer, swift boater and believes that Obama's birth certificate is a forgery.

Eric Williams - Holocaust denier and believes that Obama's birth certificate is a forgery.

Are there any "flat earth" proponents, David Icke "lizardman" theorists or Larouchian "Queen Elizabeth is a Jewish cocaine dealer" fans espousing the theory that Obama's birth certificate is a forgery, cuz that would really fill in my "crackpot bingo" card perfectly.

There really is no hate like fearful conservative hate

holmer: They are not near as hateful as daily kos or DU.

Heh. You're about as wrong as it's possible to be, in my opinion.

I've seen some pretty ugly stuff on DU and Kos, but nothing holds a candle to the vile, unexpurgated hatred mixed with anger, foaming bile, and delivered via spittle-flecked invective on FR and LGF.

Cyclometh: holmer: They are not near as hateful as daily kos or DU.

If you can't take the heat you'd better avoid the haters over at amazon.com:

Though I've always disagreed on nearly everything LGF posts about, I've always respected Charles for being a very public opponent of creationism on his blog.

LGF is great, very centered and absolutely NON-HATEFUL. The LGF guy and the Lizardoid army are pretty cool.

Cyclometh is full of hooey. He/She/It should read LGF more closely instead of trying to spread talking points of the nuttier groups out there.

holmer: They are not near as hateful as daily kos or DU.

Well, THAT'S why they're getting hate mail from their readers! :D

Reap what you sew... LGF

Oh well, back to football I guess

The comments on make me think maybe there are some sane LGFers

I've read some pretty retarded stuff on LGF in the past, but this was surprisingly rational.

Oh well, you lay down with dogs, you get fleas!

hahawinnipeg: LGF is great, very centered and absolutely NON-HATEFUL. The LGF guy and the Lizardoid army are pretty cool.

IIRC, there's a meme going around that features a screenshot from LGF, asking Al Qaida to kill Jimmy Carter.

They are not near as hateful as hotornot or eHarmony

I'm really surprised you got through that with a straight face!

At least the right allow's for opposing views, the Kos left will kick you off the island.

Try an experiment, see if I am not correct.

LGF is better than Free Republic and Hillaryis44, that's for sure. Sure there are nutty, racist moments, but Kos is nutty and racist at times to. I'd say they are similar, in that their negative reputations are more due to their readers and comments and others user created content.

What's the conservative equivalent to HuffPo? I'd say LGF is a little too far out. NRO? Are there a bunch of non-insane NRO articles that just aren't greenlit on Fark?

What I mean by Kos being racist is that they are sometimes so sensitive and prone to outrage that they make it seem a bad choice of words is like the holocaust, and this means that when people experience REAL racism they end up being scoffed at as whiners.

The con equivalent to HuffPo is Pajamas Media, which is just as retarded.

Are you kidding me? They kicked Weaver95 out of Freeperville for simply suggesting that maybe Christians shouldn't approve of torture (or something similar).

It's an ivory bounce-house

How can someone be a truther AND believe Obama's birth certificate is a forgery. I would have thought only crazy lefties who shouldn't want to undermine his presidency, love Obama believe it was fake, just like I cant believe a neo-con would believe the Bush administration was in on 9/11? Am I missing something??

Yeah you're missing that there's a lot of people in America who are neither 'crazy lefties' or neocons. And that 'crazy lefties' didn't support Obama's presidency to begin with. And that there are a lot of right wingers who distrust the government regardless of who's in charge. To name a few.

I'm pretty sure that most to all of the people who believe 9/11 was an inside job voted 3rd party and weren't fans of either of the big 2 candidates.

I loved it. It was much better than Free Republic. I'm going to see it again and again.

In his defense I think he was talking about the readers, not the authors - although FR is douche-tastic from start to end.

There's a lot of crazies out there. Most don't have ANY political affiliation other than 'it's a conspiracy!'

I seem to remember reading that conspiracy theory was a way of managing chaos, that the human mind looks for patterns, and misidentifies them frequently.

bicentennialman: I seem to remember reading that conspiracy theory was a way of managing chaos, that the human mind looks for patterns, and misidentifies them frequently.

yeah that makes sense, people rather believe the govt is super powerful and crap, to them the idea of a few dudes with box cutters taking down the towers just "Does not Compute!"

Hell we are lucky that Bush's admin is as incompetent as it is, or we'd be much worse off

you are a puppet: And that 'crazy lefties' didn't support Obama's presidency to begin with.

If you're the kind of idiot who thinks that typical American liberals are 'crazy lefties' then I can't help you. The far left didn't vote for Obama. Sorry to challenge your worldview but I live in Denver and I saw them firsthand during the DNC. They weren't marching out of support for the Democratic party.

I've always found Fark to be the very essence of nincompoopery. Except my posts which are erudite and full of sweet reasonableness
