Sometimes they're right. But they're too obsessed with purging their ranks of undesirables. See how LGF treated McCain. See how the GOP treated Ron Paul. Since CJ determined that McCain is a racist, a denunciation was stickied on the front page of LGF. I don't know about the validity of the claim. Frankly, I don't care enough to investigate. The only time I’ve ever heard of him was through LGF. Besides, we've all said stupid things about race. Any discussion of it brings up topics not mentioned in polite company: physical appearance, wealth, social status & religion. Race is a difficult concept. I tend to cut people (regardless of race) a lot of slack on this matter. When people called Paul a crypto-anti-Semite, it was worthwhile to investigate the claims. Ron Paul was running for President. So he’s held to a higher standard than McCain. The GOP should have openly discussed those concerns in the Presidential debates. It would have been revealed that the claims were nonsense. Instead they tried to keep him off the stage. During the 90’s, the Republican movement proudly boasted of defying PC campus speech codes. Today, that dedication to robust debate is gone. Which brings me back to CJ. He is one who wanted to keep Ron Paul off the stage. And he attempted it with the same stupid tactics he’s using against McCain: guilt by association. It doesn’t work anymore. The problem with Charles is the same problem with the Republican Party. Sometimes they’re right. But they’re too obsessed with purging their ranks of undesirables.
