More ways to help

We’re seeing blogbursts, celebrity fundraising drives and desperate appeals for help for Hurricane Katrina relief. Plenty of organizations are collecting funds, including Federation CJA, who is collecting on behalf of UJC.

    Sari, why do you link to LGF? You don’t strike me as pro-racism. You let things slide sometimes but I think that’s just blind-bias. Did you read any of their comments on Katrina and situation in NO? I just had lunch and their hatred and racism is making my stomach turn. Stupid fools even use this opportunity to blast `Moooslims` (as they like to refer to Muslims) with the very same hatred that they accuse them of.

  • segacs says:

    Hanthala, judging LGF by its commentators would be like judging me by you.

  • Tré says:

    Sari, give me an example of where I have written racist comments.

    You have on occasion removed racist comments from your blog left by other poster, not me (many of them anti-Arab and anti-Muslim).

    Be fair.

  • Tré says:

    Having a bad day, Sari? Just think its Friday-before-a-long-weekend and have yourself some chocolate!

  • segacs says:

    Yeah. Long weekend for some, perhaps. But some of us are so loaded down with work that we will be spending a good part of the “long weekend” in the office.

    Anyway, LGF has a strict no-censorship policy from what I gather. I’m not quite such an absolute freedom-of-speech idealist (I make exceptions) so I do occasionally censor particularly annoying out-of-line comments.

    Charles Johnson at LGF provides excellent coverage of a lot of issues that most other blogs won’t touch. It’s a shame he’s got so many out-there commentators. But then, so do a lot of blogs I frequent. My links are to blogs, not to their comments.

  • Tré says:

    OK, that clears things up. Had some chocolate, did ya?

  • segacs says:

    Mmmmmm… chocolate… :)

    No, seriously, what I meant was that, just as it would be unfair to assume that I am pro-Palestinian because you (a commentator) are, it’s also unfair to label Charles Johnson a racist just because many of the people who comment on his site are.

  • Tré says:

    Yes, I got it, Sari.

  • Tré says:

    BTW. I was checking out Israpundit (some of us are bored to tears at work this Friday afternoon) and they link to this site called masada2000. I couldn’t check that site out thoroughly (kinda hard when at work…the images are embarrassing) but I know I’ve checked that site out before and its kinda sorta really racist…

  • Tré says:

    Yep, this is enough to make my point:

  • cliff from montreal says:

    H or Sari,can you give me an example of me writing ‘racist’ stuff? I’m curious.

    H, if you want a complete list of the thousands of racist muslim sites on the net, I’ll be more than happy to send then your way,in arabic as well.They are a lot more hateful and racist than that site you linked to.And it’s not one or two..it’s hundreds of them.You are NOT a victim h.Live with it.

  • DaninVan says:

    Well, this threads off to a robust start. What was the topic again…?

  • cliff from montreal says:

    Dan,
    Hum, wasn’t it about a certain group of people doing something good? That was, of course, before Miss-Direction got hold of it.

  • DaninVan says:

    Miss-Direction…heh:)

  • John Palubiski says:

    I’m the topic here Dan!

    Let,s talk about me! 8)

  • Tré says:

    Aaah, Johnny’s just jealous he’s a beastly boy.

    Lyrics for: Silver Threads and Golden Needles

    I don’t want your lonely mansion
    With a tear in every room
    All I want’s to love you, promise
    Beneath the haloed moon
    But you think I should be happy
    With your money and your name
    And hide myself in sorrow
    While you play your cheating game

    Silver threads and golden needles
    Cannot mend this heart of mine
    And I dare not drown my sorrow
    In the warm glow of your wine
    But you think I should be happy
    With your money and your name
    And hide myself in sorrow
    While you play your cheating game

    Silver threads and golden needles
    Cannot mend this heart of mine
    And I dare not drown my sorrow
    In the warm glow of your wine
    You can’t buy my love with money
    For I never was that kind
    Silver threads and golden needles
    Cannot mend this heart of mine
    Silver threads and golden needles
    Cannot mend this heart of mine
