RationalWiki:What is going on in the clogosphere?/October 2008

October 2008
Wow, it's only Obama's second day as President Elect and Ann Coulter is already in danger of complete mental breakdown Experts with Rationalwiki predict a padded room in her near future. Not only is Barack HUSSEIN Obama a Communist, the Antichrist, a Muslimofascist infiltrator, a foreigner, a mind-controlling supervillain, and the leader of a coven of curse-throwing Kenyan witchdoctors, he's ALSO the illegitimate son of Malcolm X. The man sure gets around. ZOMG Obama is [http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=79421 Stalin! And he's black!] AAAAAAAAAAA!!!1!!1!eleven! Ann Coulter, showing the massive intellect that only she can, reminds us that "racial bias crimes are almost always hoaxes." She might have a decent argument if the FBI hadn't just released statistics saying "More than half of the 9,527 victims of hate crimes committed in the United States last year were attacked because of their race, and seven out of 10 of those victims were black Americans" Sometimes the classics are the most enjoyable. Both Michelle Malkin and Brent Bozell devote their weekly editorials to reports on the infamous Pro Obama Media. Bozell even has rock hard evidence. His own MRC.... No bias there. Words fail on this "Yes on Prop 8" video.  Something we hadn't thought of: Is America having a bad hair day?, Julie wonders and then replies to her own question with a cursory attempt to make the obvious connection between hair, national identity, demonic possession and Frasier. Barack Hussein "Tarzan" Obama wants to steal Xmas Christmas!: In this People interview, Barack and Michelle Obama said that they don't give their daughters birthday presents. However, they implied that they do give their daughters Christmas presents from Santa Claus. Naturally, some wingnut pastor named James David Manning started shouting from his pulpit that they don't give Christmas presents. Ergo, President Obama will ban Christmas! And just in case his sermon didn't scare enough wingnuts, he made this video where children from his congregation beg people to save Christmas by voting against Obama! Just in time for Halloween, Focus on the Family has issued a 16 page PDF horror tale called "Letter from 2012 in Obama's America". Among the "scary" future events: Justices Kennedy and Scalia have joined Justices Stevens and Ginsburg in retirement; all heterosexuals are second-class citizens; the U.S. military has been withdrawn from Iraq; universal healthcare; reinstatement of the Fairness Doctrine; and (GASP!!!!!!!) Bush Administration officials are being prosecuted for war crimes! Oh, the humanity! Barack Obama: The President who stole Christmas! Watch it through till the end to catch the children video Christmas cards. "Crazy Tracy" stars in This is Why America Is Broken (YouTube, originally from "Now on PBS"). There are no words to describe the sheer stupidity of these top ten lists. Bonus points for the Argumentum ad Nazium though Pat Buchanan give an depth analysis of Colin Powell's endorsment of Obama: [http://news.yahoo.com/s/uc/20081021/cm_uc_crpbux/op_337807;_ylt=AtAenGsmSQpYhiwo80YAdA_9wxIF He's black.. DUH] Research into possible republican VP candidates was done at... Wikipedia "Brickley, a self-described “obsessive” political junkie who recently graduated from the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, told me that he began by “randomly searching Wikipedia and election sites for Republican women.”" Barack Obama, super-villain extraordinaire, is winning the election through his mastery of mass hypnosis (PDF warning).
