Charles Icarus Johnson's view of the world: paranoia
The problem is, Icarus Johnson is full of crap. He didn't leave the Right, he excommunicated anyone of right mind from his blog over the last two years. The list includes Jonn Lilyea, Brian at Snapped Shot, Bookworm Room, Rose at The Coffee Shop, zombie and yours truly are a few names who come to mind. And that's the short list. There's over 1,650 former members of LGF who have had their accounts blocked by Sir Charles the Dick.
The Other McCain has Johnson's list . 2.0 the Blogmocracy also analyzed it. In a nutshell, this is what Icarus wrote:
Racist, sexist, bigot, homophobes, Islamophobes, Christian-fundamentalists, nirthers, climate change deniers like Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Sarah Palin, Ace of Spades, Pamela Geller at Atlas Shrugs, Robert Specner of Jihad Watch, Michelle Malkin, Robert Stacy McCain and the entire right-wing blogosphere...all FACSISTS!!!!Only like I said, Charles, in all his self-righteous fervor toward conservatives, is full of crap. Need examples?
Charles put Birtherism (or as he calls them) "Nirthers" on the map. This was one of the first examples of questioning Obama's birth certificate and it came from LGF.

Not only was "Icarus" a "Nirther" before he wasn't, he was also a global warming skeptic before he bashed "climate change deniers."
Icarus claims to despise racism, but tolerates and praises one of his ass-lickers named Kilgore Trout for writing the "n-word" and wookie at Hot Air, all done in the middle of the night while Ed Morrissey and the other moderators were getting some hard earned sleep, unlike the speed freaks Icarus surrounds himself with.
Or posting photos of Michelle Malkin which could be seen as a racist attack on her.

And as for religious bigotry, any look at LGF's archives over the last year shows Charles Johnson to be an insane, foaming at the mouth anti-Christian bigot. No wonder he's flip-flopped to becoming a glo-BULL warming believer, it's a religion for the Godless.
As for being "anti-fascist" Charles has practiced an iron-fisted fascism at LGF, banning people who dare to dissent from him or refuse to kiss his hippie ass, even following their searches on LGF and comments on other blogs like some Big Brother of the Blogosphere.
It appears there's more to Icarus' "awakening." Robert Spencer of JihadWatch says the New York Slimes is going to do a story on "Icarus." Simple, the lapdog media needs a useful idiot to make conservatives look bad.
Problem was, Johnson was never a conservative. He was part of the phenomena of fair-weathered, sunshine patriots who rallied against those who attacked us on 9/11. But their patriotism lasted until the "Support the Troops" bumper stickers faded, and the flags they flew on their cars became tattered. Then, like addicts groping for their next fix, they went back to their addiction of liberalism. Now, he's playing footsie with the Daily Kos, Media Matters and Soros crowd, hoping he can get enough people to buy his lame-ass calendar of beach photos with tankers in the background, because he's hard up for cash.
I'll let Weasel Zippers have the last word on Icarus.
This will be my last Chuckles post and I have one simple message for him.
Have fun policing the sycophants and boot-lickers in your comments section, have fun Googling your name all day, have fun taking it in the ass from Kilgore and have fun fading even further into obscurity once this minor bump in traffic is over.
Oh, and I almost forgot, go fuck yourself....

Well said, I couldn't agree more. And Charles, don't let that door hit you in the ass...
Johnson should have heeded the warnings of delusion and flash backs from excessive use of psychedelics.
