RationalWiki:What is going on in the Clogosphere?/0805

May 2008

 * Denyse O'Leary is all upset because ID groups don't get government bailouts. Maybe because they don't produce anything of use? (note the shout-out to Bill Dembski and Guillermo Gonzalez's current haunts) (posted May 29, 2008)
 * In today's headlines: Speculation about aliens is going to lock space nuts out of judgment day and bonus! one of the last uncontacted tribes on earth just needs a little Jesus and a bath to set them on the road to redemption. Julie says: hate is even more fun if you inject a bit of levity into it!(posted on May 30, 2008)
 * Science is afraid to admit that the Christian god exists. Nevermind, Julie is just droning on about the devils in her underwear again. They're giving her an itch only faith in god can keep her from scratching. Cheeky little bastards. (posted May 29, 2008)
 * Conservative Futurist goes off on Barack Obama for mildly remarking that American consumerism is unpopular with most non-Americans. Demonstrates that hallmark of conservatives, using Obama's middle name.  A quick check also reveals that Conservative Futurist is Mormon, (of course, he endorsed Mitt Romney—big surprise there), and is a lobbyist in Washington, D.C, probably for a "homeland security" hawk.  Could his interests be any more tailored?


 * This just in: Uneducated sheltered blogger discovers that meteors hit the moon.  Yet more evidence that she  doesn't know what the hell she's talking about (relevant item just under "Favorite headlines").


 * Canadian wingnut Denyse O'Leary has a new blog, where she promotes her books challenges the idea that there are numerous failed multiverses. Indeed, why should they be the failed ones, when this is the one with Denyse in it? (posted May 21, 2008)


 * As the Prophet Andy has instructed, Conservative girls don't go for Liberal guys (or, presumably, girls). But to judge by Mesopotamia West's Frank and his Conservative erotica, one suspects Con girls are just used to lower standards.  For extra fun, Canadian Cynic is holding a contest to write better smut than ol' Frank. (posted May 14, 2008)


 * Kathy, known to the left as KKKate, over at Five Feet of Fury muses that maybe Apartheid was a good idea. (posted May 20, 2008)


 * Over at No Shoes or Shirt Required, Julie has come upon a very simple explanation for Global Warming:The real threat to our planet ... is our love of the ungodly.. . . She has enough bile stored up to take an ignorant little swipe at "Darwinists" while she's at it. (posted May 19 2008)


 * You just can't please some people. A woman who had a child due to a failed tubal ligation actually does what the Conservatives keep telling people: avoiding birth control by having the operation, being faithful within the marriage and not withholding sex, not having an abortion, and keeping/loving the child, but gets vilified for it anyhow, for daring to think the doctor who screwed the operation up should bear some responsibility for his actions.
