Gauntlet (UPDATED AGAIN)

Last week on The CITIZEN JOURNALIST Report, I challenged leftwing heavyweight and Media Matters gopher Oliver Willis to come on the show and question LGF’s Charles Johnson about Charles’ alleged “hate site”—a favorite posting theme of Ollie’s.  Today, we’ll find out if he has the balls.

And by “balls,” I mean something approximating “courage” or “fortitude.” Not those little corn puffs dusted with powdered cheese product.

****

update:  No word back yet from Oliver. 

****

update 2:  Oliver has said YES.  Developing…

****

update 3:  It’s now looking like Oliver may not have been serious.  We haven’t received a follow-up email, or any contact info.

So I guess we’ll have to call Charles a Nazi for him.

****

update 4:  Now it’s on again, evidently.

    What’s with the “read the rest” on this post?

    There’s no way Oliver will actually attack Charles in person. Although it would be fun if he did.

  2. Searching for balls on Ollie is like searching for … well, frankly the mind boggles.

  3. You linked O-Dub?

    Sinner!

  4. Russ from Winterset says:

    don’t forget “chocolate salty balls”.  I’m sure O-Dub likes those as well.

  5. Alpha Baboon says:

    Too bad you couldnt get OW on with the Blond Buzzsaw, Ann Coulter.. Women are so much crueler than men… Ann would find his balls and keep them in that little secret zipper pocket in her purse as a souvenir..

  6. Ira says:

    And if he does make an appearance, ask him why he hasn’t said anything about Sandy Berger. Also to bring his own snacks. Maybe suet lightly dusted in brown sugar & cinnamon.

  7. and by heavy you of course mean dense, right?

    i hate your ficle captcha`almost as much as liberalism

    To quote Admiral Ackbar from Star Wars : “It’s a trap!”

    If O-Dubs shows up, and Charles is there, the entire show will consist of Jeff asking Charles about things that require talent and/or physical skill

    “So, Charles, you frequently ride 30-40 miles and post about your jaunts on your site, Little Green Footballs … Oliver, you sit on a chair, read Little Greenfootballs, then put down the sandwich long enough to type something about Little Green Footballs … So, Charles, how was the ride .. was it hatefilled?”

    or

    “So, Charles, you’re a musician who’s performed on stage with really well known people in front of large audiences … Oliver, you do … something, I think web-related, with Media Matters, but not writing, right?  just formatting and pagination, anyway … so Charles, were you always filled with hate, even while performing?”

    or

    “So, Charles, Oliver Willis thinks there’s a larger truth to the Bush Memo story, one larger than himself … one that goes beyond quote technical questions of whether the memo actually existed in the 1970s unquote … do you agree with Oliver and, if not, why are you so filled with hate?”

    Better Oliver should spend his time productively … researching draft picks for the Redskins or creating captions for a picture of a mincing donkey.

    though, be sure to ask this question of young Ollie:

    “Oliver, you insisted on calling Michele Malkin by her maiden name in response to her questioning Teresa Heinz’s calling herself ‘Teresa Heinz Kerry’ during the election .. you claimed it wasn’t racially motivated, yet you continued to call Michele by her maiden name after Teresa Heinz Kerry went back to her preference of being called ‘Teresa Heinz’, which happened to be right after John Kerry lost the election. 

    So, basically, Malkin was right and you’re fat, chronically mistaken, and a racist. 

    Nice work.”

  10. Chrees says:

    I’ve always viewed Charles’ site as a “hate site,” but not in the way that Oliver intends. Charles simply quotes the hatemongers, word for word. And proving Lilek’s point: ROPMA.

  11. Hubris says:

    Oliver has said YES.

    I never imagined myself saying this, but good for Oliver.  It should make for very interesting radio.

  12. Charles is going to eat his lunch.

    And we know that nothing could upset Baghdad Blob more.

  13. me says:

    So Oliver…Twinkies? Deep fried or raw?

  14. Brandon says:

    I’m making Charles a 13 point favorite to rip O-Dub a new one on Thursday.

  15. Ana says:

    Good on Oliver. Still, I smell blood in the water.

  16. kyle says:

    Didn’t think the porcine pundit had the cojones.  Or if he did, that he would have a tough time locating them beneath the folds.  I say good on him.  I hope he puts up a decent fight, although witnessing his evisceration (which is more likely) will also make for good giggles.

  17. dario says:

    Charles has been through this accusation numerous times, does Oliver really think he’s going to John Kerry his way through labeling CJ as a hate publishest by quoting his commentors?  Does he seriously believe he can defend this position by doing a search on KOS and taking that as gospel?

    It will be a slaughter unless Oliver acts the better and apologizes for the assertation and clairifies that he was for LGF as a hate site before he was against it.  Or reverse… or something.

  18. TallDave says:

    Booyah!

    Should be great stuff.

    Where do we listen again?  I think I only get the replay.

    Turing: elements, as in this has the elements of a great show!

  19. BLT in CO says:

    With or without Oliver it’ll be great.  Having Charles alone will allow you and Bill to delve more deeply.  Though the hate-a-thon format with both Charles and Oliver would have been great fun.  In any event I’d certainly like to hear him come on at some point, even if it’s not now.  To have the three of you brawling a bit would make for extremely entertaining radio.

  20. Like all great divas, from Grace Jones to J-Lo, Ollie will be a no-show. In a private moment, I once asked Ollie about his chronic lateness, & he lisped that he “thubthcribed to Grathie Allen’th philothophy”: When leaving, always give yourself a quick over-the-shoulder glance in the mirror. If anything takes attention away from the diva, remove it.

    He often shows up completely naked.

  21. Alan says:

    Well, when you call a man a gopher and then ask him to come on your show, it may not help your cause.

    Y’know, just saying. Truth hurts, after all.

  22. Alan, its not news to us that Baghdad Blob can dish it out but not take it.

  23. Darleen says:

    It’ll be interesting if for nothing more than hearing OW’s voice

    I’m betting it’s at least one octive over high C
