Charlie and the UN

Charles Johnson's hatred of the UN tends to blind him of some basics facts about the organization, as we saw again this week when the West Coast hateblogger took a shot at the Human Rights Council (http://littlegreenfootballs.com/weblog/?entry=24959). In his post 'UN Human Rights Council Kowtows to Islam' CJ fails to mention that it was European countries which opposed the 'defamation of religion' resolution while the US didn't raise any objections to the OIC's proposal.

As for his discovery this week that Human Rights Watch said last September the rights council shouldn't be so obsessed with Israel (http://littlegreenfootballs.com/weblog/?entry=24962), he fails to mention that the same argument has been made by two UN secretary generals and pretty much every European country in the council. Of course mentioning that might give the lizards the impression Europe and the UN (as an institution, rather than its various forums) might be sane after all. Can't have that!!!

This hasn't been spotlighted yet, but looks like Mr. Closed Registration is planning on fortifying the gates even further:

"All searches are now logged, as well, so I can keep an eye on how the search engine’s being used and optimize things that need optimizing. So if you’re someone like, oh, say, Glenn “Sock Puppet” Greenwald, and you’re thinking how great it’s going to be to use our own search engine to cherry-pick through LGF’s comments and launch more smear jobs and hypocritical attacks—well, let’s just say I’ll be watching."

Looks like Chucky's battening down the hatches at the 82nd Chairborne's basement clubhouse. What was it that people say about, "if you have nothing to hide?"
