“As soon as I heard about the “scandal” involving Rep. Anthony Weiner, and saw it being pushed like crazy by fraudster Andrew Breitbart, I knew it would turn out to be yet another phony story. And that’s exactly what happened.”
Charles Johnson 30 May 2011
Woot. The Clown Posse Rides again. Charles Johnson jumped on the left running board of 1930s smear liberalism, honking the horn all the way, and rode it right into the ditch. Although Breitbart hasn’t been wrong yet, Andrew’s learned about dealing with the left-wing media hounds who were loosed on him regarding PENIS PENIS PENIS LOLgate.
To be fair, Charles The Consistent was merely echoing the talking points distributed by the leftist media in defense of a slimeball who sent images of his privates to the public… some of whom were apparently underage.
Charles only forwarded the fabricated memetrope and declared Weinergate to be a fraud. His Lizard Army picked up the ball and ran with it. They deduced that it was Andrew Breitbart who set up a clever sting operation in which his spies tracked NY Dem Rep Anthony Weiner into a mens’ locker room. Breitbart’s spies waited until Weiner had a woody, then sidled up next to him and took a picture from a cellphone camera while pretending to check email, and all without Weiner taking notice.
Once they cropped and enhanced the images, they hacked into Weiner’s yfrog account to post the embarrassing pictures to young girls and a porn actress so that Breitbart could claim credit (for busting a married democrat for lewd and lascivious behavior) and eventually rule the world. Fucking brilliant.
Charles, you owe Breitbart an apology, because once again, you’ve pwnd yourself.

I’m sitting here pondering why I take such pleasure in watching the lizard king getting so thoroughly trounced. It’s really petty and, frankly, CJ really hasn’t done anything to me aside from threatening to ban me for not agreeing with group think at LGF (I was *gasp* modding comments the “wrong” way). And getting banned by CJ is practically a badge of honor as I see it. So what’s my issue?
I think it’s because CJ and, by extension, LGF is representative of everything I abhor about leftism. There’s the intolerance of differing opinions. There’s the absence of critical thinking skills. There’s the willingness to swallow propaganda whole. There’s the smug arrogance that comes from the delusion that your political affiliation somehow influences your IQ. There’s the inability to admit when you’re wrong, which is somewhat compounded by the fact that the “Become a Leftist and Boost Your IQ By 80 Points!” pamphlet doesn’t let them know that being correct isn’t biconditional with being smart.
Essentially, my current thought is that CJ/LGF is a microcosm of leftism. Well, perhaps that’s too generous. Maybe it’s a caricature of leftism. I would say totalitarian leftism but that seems to be redundant. So watching them flail is almost as heart warming as watching the entire leftist machine come apart.
Nah. It’s probably just that I’m petty and vindictive. And, naturally, stupid.

@ orangecrush:
In regard to that old LGF post, it makes me mindful of the strange irony with the past week’s events.
Jan 17th, 1998, Matt Drudge (the mentor of Andrew Breitbart) breaks the Monica Lewinsky scandal which the MSM had been sitting on. Clinton emphatically denies the allegations. Then the threat of incontrovertible evidence surfaces. On August 17th, Clinton admits that he was lying and gives a tearful public apology while making it clear that he broke no laws.
May 27th/28th, 2011, Andrew Breitbart breaks the Anthony Weiner scandal which most of the MSM tried to spin away. Weiner emphatically denies the allegations. Then the threat of incontrovertible evidence surfaces. On June 6th, Weiner admits that he was lying and gives a tearful public apology while making it clear that he broke no laws.
Okay, so that’s not terribly strange in and of itself. I see it as a consequence of the refusal to accept that the standard Dem playbook doesn’t work without a complicit media.
Here’s the strangeness: in between these two events, Dan Rather made a failed attempt to throw the 2004 election via the forged NG memos. And he would have gotten away with it too if it hadn’t been for those meddling bloggers in their mangy pajamas, including one Charles Johnson. Dan Rather first denied the allegations, then refused to apologize while claiming that while the memos may have been forged, the important thing wasn’t the validity of the memos but the questions that they raised.
Fast forward to the Weiner scandal and one Charles Johnson claims that the Breitbart allegations are forged. When it turns out he’s wrong, he refuses to apologize while claiming that while the allegations might not have been forged, the important thing isn’t the validity of the allegations but the questions that they raise.
Where’s Rod Serling when you need him?
@ orangecrush:
Sometimes orange you just have to call it like you see it. There are some quite evil folks about. But don’t worry, eventually they’ll get theirs. Karma has a way of leveling it all out eventually.
Amazing. Weiner public admits that he outright lied about the whole thing, and the SeeBS article about an interview with Breitbart still can’t accept the facts (emphasis mine):
Breitbart: Weiner offering limited version of truth
