Update:
Charles Johnson at LGF seems to have kicked over a rock. Look here, here, here, and here.
Update 2:
Now it’s just getting silly. And the response is even sillier, albeit predictable.
Heh:
Over at Instapundit a reader writes:
The Community Blogs at Obama 08 are no more “official” than the rantings of BDS sufferers at an Obama rally. I have a blog there, just to prove how easy it is to get one, and Senator Obama has ZERO chance of getting my vote. You could have one. It’s as simple as signing up. There’s no vetting process of any kind.
Any nut with an axe to grind can post any offensive material on the Community Blogs, and the Obama campaign will be unaware unless someone raises a stink. In fact, it’s entirely possible that a McCain operative could go on the site, create a blog, post offensive material, and then leak the URL to LGF to “prove” how disreputable the Senator’s supporters are. Shades of Dan Rather!
Granted, it’s possible. I suspect the number of McCain operatives who think that way is pretty low. (I wouldn’t put it past some Hillary people right about now.) But isn’t offering your presidential campaign web site as a wide-open, un-moderated blogging host, you know, a bad idea?
I’m waiting to see a first sign of good judgment from this young man. But I’m not holding my breath.
Update 3:
Never attribute to malice what can be explained by incompetence.
