Charles Johnson: Twisting and shouting

While Charles himself continues to play down the high toll the campaign in Iraq has taken on US service members' lives, he accuses 'peace groups of "celebrating" their deaths.

Now let's see...

"United for Peace and Justice, a coalition of more than 1,300 U.S. peace groups, urged demonstrators to wear black armbands or ribbons with the number 3,000 in white print and to phone radio stations and write letters to newspapers to call attention to the death toll."

Does Charles normally celebrate with a black ribbon and a silent vigil? Do his readers really believe this shit?

And in all his posts about the 3,000th soldier dying in Iraq, not once has CJ bothered to justify their sacrifice. That tells you something about the strength of his arguments.

Johnson is inventing a bizarre reality: how does a demonstration become a celebration? So his posse are supposed to really believe that left-wing lunatics are on the streets celebrating the deaths of their soldiers? He's slipping further into a cognitive quagmire where reality gives way to an absurd rightwing mindset.
