Little Green Footballs used to be one of my favorite daily reads on the Blogsphere. Alas, Charles now spends his time attacking Right-to-Lifers, Intelligent-Designers and other assorted Right Wing Extremists. Sad but true. It illustrates a point made long ago by Ayn Rand; that if you have no solid, and explicit principles, then you will not long hold any consistent point of view. Of course Charles Johnson did some good work in the past, for example with regard to the Dan Rather fake memo scandal. But over time Charles has drifted father and farther into Andrew Sullivan territory. If LGF were a smaller blog it would matter little, but he is not. Thus I have chosen to demote his link to the loon category along with the perpetually fearful Daily Dish. If you want to read good blogs doing good work on liberty, limited government and the war against the Islamo-Fascists you will find plenty of good links in the regular blog section. I recommend those that I put there. But unfortunately LGF is no longer one of them.
