Dan Rather Kidnaps Charles Johnson and Takes Over Little Green Footballs
Occam's Razor says this must be true.
When Little Green Footballs, a blog founded by Charles Johnson, started to go off the conservative rails over the past year, many dismissed Johnson’s erratic, obsessive rantings as classic signs of blogger burnout, or a perilously tight ponytail. Indeed, as Johnson lashed out at other conservative websites, and and even posted photos of blades of grass that were uncharacteristically out of focus, bloggers across the political spectrum cringed at the precipitous descent of a once-proud stronghold of conservatism.
Unable to fathom the loss of a blogger we once admired, we at TNOYF have developed a different theory. We believe that ex CBS newsman Dan Rather, seeking revenge for Johnson’s discovery in 2004 that memos offered as evidence by CBS that George Bush received special treatment during his National Guard service were forgeries, has incapacitated Johnson and taken over control of LGF.
Prove us wrong.
Update: As further evidence, we submit for your consideration a classic Charles Johnson cloud photo from last year, and one posted recently. Look closely and open your mind.
Update 2: Ripped from the LGF headlines yesterday. Indeed.
Update 3 (9:21AM): I have been banned at LGF. That’s just fine, “Charles Johnson.”
Update 4 (9:34AM): We have been removed from the LGF blogroll.
Update 5 (9:36AM): Buckley informed me we were never actually on the LGF blogroll.
Update 6 (10:05AM): CHARLES IF YOU CAN READ THIS DON’T LOSE HOPE WE ARE PRAYINGHOPING FOR YOUR RELEASE.
