Has to be an exclusive club: there is no room for more than one ego in the clubhouse.

Since when did he have open comments as stated in the link?

Cherniak always brings that old joke about 1st and 3rd in a circle jerk to mind.

For what its worth, his last post on the Star's terrible reporting is actually pretty good.

Sorry, here's the link: http://jasoncherniak.blogspot.com/2007/05/star-reports-on-israel.html

His comments aren't bad either.

Barely out of diapers Cherniak was in full prep mode for his run at the trough when he pitched his blog readers for contributions to pay his way to the Liberal bun fest in Montreal last December.

Kate, were you aware that you are linking to an explicitly anti-Jewish website?:

"With all respect to epileptics - why should we grant exceptions from our common law to the followers of long-dead schizophrenic epileptics like that child rapist Mohammed, or the fraudster Joseph Smith, the fictional black magician Moses or the sectarian bigot Jesus?

Why too should we exempt these religions from criticism?"

and:
"We should certainly tolerate that mohel’s belief that he’s part of some chosen tribe and we should tolerate his wish to put a consenting adult’s penis in his mouth, but when he starts sucking baby-penis, then we should stop caring about his motivations and look at his actions and the actions of the baby’s parents.

We shouldn’t tolerate religion (he's referring to Judaism here - A.) when it lacks consent. Our liberal state is based on consent, consent of the governed, consent in trade, consent in sex - consent in all things. A baby cannot consent and where there is no consent there is a crime.

He just said we shouldn't tolerate Judaism.

Here's another nugget of wisdom:

"I think we atheists need to be more militant in our non-belief. We need to work harder to combat religious influence and fight people like the messianic, christian, fascist leader of the Green Party, Elizabeth May. We have to stop at tolerance and well before respect."

Yikes.

For more anti-Jewish and anti-Christian hate, check out the following posts:

There is a lot more hate to be found at these and other posts.

Andrew,

You left out the paragraph before that puts that in context. It was criticism of the practices of some Mohels in New York City who have a peculiar method of performing circumcisions. After making the incision, they suck off of the foreskin with their mouths. In so doing, they have given babies genital herpes and have even killed some.

So when I said we shouldn't tolerate religion when it lacks consent, I mean that we shouldn't tolerate the actions sponsored by religion when these actions lack consent. I.e. female circumcision, forced marriage, et al.

Oh and I completely stand by the assertion that Elizabeth May and the Greens are crypto-fascists. Though we need to tolerate them in an open society - we don't need to afford them any respect.

Liberals lie cheat and swindle to win the war and Churniak is no different.

I've also linked to the progressive bloggers and the CBC. Face it. I have low standards.

I suspect he has all his stuff monogrammed "JC" ;-)

Perhaps he will make it to be this year's poster-boy for "Self-Love Magazine"...I understand all LPC apparatchiks have a subscription. LOL :)

BTW: Does Warren realize he has a real contest from JC for being the widest skid mark in Toronto's knickers?

Even better is that he not only nominated himself for "Best Political Blog", he also nominated himself for "Best Geek Blog", "Most Obnoxious Blogger", and, get this....

"Best Blog of All Time"

gag.

Cherniak regularly refuses to post comments that are too critical of the Liberals and use FACTS to show how morally bankrupt they are.

That said, every once in a blue moon he says something that's not totally stupid.

If you put a monkey in front of a typewriter long enough= eventually it will type out something relatively coherent.

y'all really shouldn't make fun of him. now he's gone and pulled his elfin like picture off of the sidebar...

Jason is more than a bit self-deluded. I like how he nominated himself for all those "blog awards" and has yet to garner any significant interest. He couldn't even get his mommy to vote for him.

Just a tad pathetic me thinks.

That said, every once in a blue moon he says something that's not totally stupid.

Like a dead clock is right twice every 24 hours.

I like the self-nomination tact though, then the immediate credit as being the nominee. Text book narcissist doing what they are best at - lots of vanity, lots of cheating, sadly, foiled by the transparency of the internet.

I don't go to Cherniak, never have, so what I have to say I say out of interest rather than defending someone I don't know.

Andrew - so you will condemn the anti-Jewish and anti-Christian portion of the rant, but nary a peep about the anti-Muslim portion of the rant?

Interesting. Not surprising really considering the readership of this site, but interesting...
