But what about the other founder Charles Johnson, the creator of little green footballs/facists. Isn't this the guy that gleefully referred to Rachel Corrie as Ms. Pancake after she was killed? An interchange of political perspectives can be worthwhile and interesting but I think it is a little strange to join up in Johnson's new media venture given his past.

The Nation has one foot in the Right-Wing, eh?! The New Republic has since the era when Peretz supported the Contras but, this remark by ChuckO is as off base as one of my high school classmates saying George McGovern was a Communist.

And Cooper, that Rightist interviews Gore Vidal, Seymour Hersh, Scott Ritter and Tom Hayden recently. http://www.thenation.com/blogs/audioblog?bid=8&pid=31875 As for the Pajamas blog project that has Chuck and Proyect all hot and bothered, like the Huffington Post what is wrong with leftistsand rightists arguing with each other?

Roger Simon of Pajamas, btw, has an interesting past. Ex-Maoist, went to the PRC when he was back in the day.Ledeen is a scumbag though.
