[Seven plus One]

I felt no longer welcome there when LGF had a long thread devoted to mocking Michelle Bachmann. She had given a speech about CO2 that posters felt was nonsense.

I see the Johnson thread is still in business. The Town Hall Meetings- Tea Party Movement riled him up and about four of us were banned when he went apeshit on an otherwise pretty useless thread. I really don't know if I was banned, per se, as my comment(s) still stood, but I couldn't log in anymore. It is very strange to watch a discussion group/ blog change to the extent where I, Mr. Reasonable, can become an 'extremist sockpuppet' by not changing along with them. Increasingly hostile is the key phrase here. Others are noticing this too. Sad.

As posted on the other LGF thread, Charles Johnson never was a right-winger. He said himself in a 2004 interview that he was "center-left". But 9/11 scared him enough that he chose to associate with a few righty types. Now, he's gone back to his roots.
