RationalWiki:What is going on in the clogosphere?/March 2014

March 2014
Taking bets on when CNN finally jumps the shark. Or has it already happened? Before It's News pretty much goes full David Icke: "SECOND SPECIES CONTROLS THE EARTH!!!!" Bryan Fischer: Gender discrimination is ok, because God designed women to be secretaries. A very typical, disrespectful atheist calls Mark Levin with some disgusting and ill-informed remarks, and the gracious and gentlemanly Levin promptly and politely sets the record straight (Sarcasm? No...). Pat Robertson is sad that America isn't like Israel was in Jesus' time, because "...if two men decided they wanted to cohabit together, they would have been stoned to death. But we don’t have that in this country here.” They aren't even trying any more... Cato calls out the Paulbots' denial of the 2014 Crimean Crisis... Libertarian Catfight!

Unconvinced? "Miss Teri Baby Lonestar" will explain it to you in (NSFW) cartoon form. Funny, trained apes probably would know better about "known unknowns." Scott Lively throws Chick-fil-A under the bus. Bill Maher: "I like Rob Ford...because he takes that crack and he channels it toward working for the people." (Well, if your definition of "the people" tends to include drug-trafficking extortionists who threaten to throw acid and kill women, yeah, maaan.) Uncle Pat knows why atheist women reject Jesus: It's because they've been raped. Believing in evolution is anti-American. Stop the War Coalition: Iraq was invaded under bullshit reasoning.
