Let the Denials Begin.....

Over on Christian Grantham's blog, Mike Rogers -- or at least someone using Rogers's email address and homepage address -- has posted a rebuttal to Christian's post of earlier today reporting on Rogers's involvement in GayPatriot's decision to stop blogging.
1. Don't believe everything you read on the internet.
2. The blogger of this site, apparently failed to mention that, aha, he is the registrant, tech person, and admin for gaypatriot.org. At the very least, you would expect full disclosure.

However, as fellow commenter Brian O'Connell replied, Christian mentioned in the article that GayPatriot is a client of his.
According to GayPatriot, who is also a client of mine, Michael Rogers called GayPatriot's place of employment on Friday immediately following the post above and spoke to GayPatriot's secretary and boss.

As I also pointed out, Christian has disclosed the fact that he provides the registration, technical support, and administration for Gaypatriot.org on more than one occasion. I daresay that constitutes "full disclosure" -- certainly far more than you care to give concerning your donor list, sources, and technical and legal help, Mike.

As to "not believing everything you read on the Internets", trust us, we don't -- especially when it's you talking, like your insistence that there are gay internment camps being refurbished in the Pacific Northwest. Unfortunately, Christian has yet to make such outlandish claims -- and unlike you, has a track record of real activism as opposed to harassment -- so we tend to believe him when he speaks on matters, especially when you call Christian and give him information.

UPDATE (7:33 PM): Christian Grantham has posted a response to Rogers's comments -- and it's a doozy. I wish I shared that unique ability that Christian has to get pissed with complete and utter elegance. (grin)
