(62,325 posts)I personally have respect for those who were RIGHT from the beginning, who NEVER harbored the bigoted thoughts expressed on that site, who took no part in the Dan Rather affair which they definitely did NOT have any rational reasons for.
It was a Rove hit job to try to protect Awol Bush from being exposed. 99% of the program was true. I don't want to go back over the details of that ambush, but most DUers are probably still very familiar with them.
I am skeptical of those who caused so much harm suddenly, due to internal conflicts with their own side, claiming to have repented.
It's great of they have, but forgive me if I respect the people LGF viciously attacked when they were TRYING to stop the bigotry and the corrupt Bush gang from doing the harm they did, due to the support of Fox, FR, LGF, Limbaugh, et al. LGF made our efforts much more difficult.
The fact is that the Norwegian mass killer was inspired by Charles Johnson. I would not want to have that on my record.
I want to make clear however, I have no objection to LGF being linked to here. I do however notice the hypocrisy of those who hate RT, a left leaning network, who use LGF as a source.
No problems. Imo, people are free to read and watch what they want to. Just don't tell the rest of us what WE can read or watch.
