Charles Johnson: Leaving The Right

Charles Johnson, the ever-vocal proprietor of LittleGreenFootballs.com, has had it with the conservative movement in America. In a post titled, "Why I Parted Ways With The Right", Johnson lists a litany of reasons that he is fed up. My favorties:

4. Support for anti-science bad craziness (see: creationism, climate change denialism, Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann, James Inhofe, etc.)

5. Support for homophobic bigotry (see: Sarah Palin, Dobson, the entire religious right, etc.)

[snip]

7. Support for conspiracy theories and hate speech (see: Alex Jones, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Birthers, creationists, climate deniers, etc.)

[snip]

10. Hatred for President Obama that goes far beyond simply criticizing his policies, into racism, hate speech, and bizarre conspiracy theories (see: witch doctor pictures, tea parties, Birthers, Michelle Malkin, Fox News, World Net Daily, Newsmax, and every other right wing source)
... although in fairness, Johnson never really associated himself with conservatism in the first place. I'm sure this post will be adding more fuel to the 'LGF is a liberal blog' fire.

Good on ya Charles.
