Charles a Republican operative?

It's hard not to suspect that Charles Johnson's Littlegreenfootballs.com is part of a Republican campaign network to distribute Karl Rove's message to the masses. Now we have something resembling proof, thanks to this little slip:

"I'm getting emails from GOP lists trumpeting a 'historic event.'"

Charles isn't going to be on GOP lists unless he wants to be. So the question is, why does he subscribe to their propaganda, if not because most of the time he wants to help spread it?

This is the first time CJ has directly questioned the party line, and only in its interpretation of an event. Mostly he just parrots it.
