Little Gay Footballs

Pepe's taken over Ch. Johnson's brain. He moved in as a pod. Melanie Phillips is now persona non grata for not toeing the line on SBJ in the schools.

Now the only difference between LGF and HuffPo is that there's disagreement permitted at HuffPo.

The Swedish model of decency and openness.

UPDATE: LGF links to fruity pinko thinkers that dump on Steyn. Pepe! You took over at LGF?

Charles Johnson's ideological switch is related to the gay marriage debate, and Johnson's own sexual identity.

Charles is not openly gay. However, he if he was, things would be a lot clearer for the people who are scratching their heads as to why he 'flipped'.

Johnson's later-day attacks on 'creationists' etc, is his attack-by-proxy against the religious forces he views as denying gay rights. His sudden interest in Christians and creationism, time wise, aligns with the rise of the gay-marriage debate on the national (& international) stage.

Johnson's original focus upon radical Islam was sparked by similar concerns (for him personally) about Islamism's threat to liberal democratic values (which of course, include gay rights).

When you approach Johnson's changing views from this vantage point, there is consistency in his motivation.
