World according to the Twitter-verse: America is turning 2014 years old or the earth is 2014 years old or something. (Thank goodness it's only 1914.) |

A "blog" that becomes a "clog" because of a blatant attempt to pander to non-believers with a misleading title, with the actual results listed at the end of the article. The real story is that a University of Regina study has found that three groups are more likely to lie in order to achieve financial gain: Business majors, children of divorce, and people who claim that religion is important to their lives. And this isn't the only blog/clog posting to do this. |

The John Birch Society defends the theory of nullification, which has been roundly rejected by the Supreme Court for over 200 years, even after the group Americans for Limited Government called the practice unconstitutional. The conservative lobbying group was apparently not nutty enough for JBS. |

Here's a rather dumb argument you don't see every day: Instead of learning to tolerate and accept others' harmless proclivities, why don't we just genetically engineer away those proclivities so people can stay bigoted and not have to deal with them, and without any undesirables left to discriminate against, we can all live happily ever after! Of course, this is less surprising upon discovering this site also promotes such things as racial realism. |

| 20 | A Tea Party Facebook group posts an image from a game that others view as an attack on the TP. (Of course, everyone forgot about the Know-Nothings).(Warning: Poe's Law in action!) Update: They finally took down the picture and (because they got free publicity) declared victory. |
| 14 | The SCOTUS has suspended habeas corpus. (Or it could be that another sovereign citizen is finding out what the law really is.) |
| 35 | Proving once again that insanity knows no bounds, Frothy claims that Obamacare is a plot to kill people who don't vote the right way. |
| 32 | You fascist gays should be put in ovens! (This is pre-Sochi Russia.) |
| 23 | Alties have started a petition demanding Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales change Wikipedia's policies to counteract alleged "bias" in alternative medicine articles. Apparently they're tired of their own biased edits being reverted by the tyrannical skeptics patrolling the articles, and they want to be allowed to inject their bullshit. |
| 24 | More Pat: The War on Christmas is because atheists are miserable and can't stand the joy of Christmas. Pass the eggnog. |
| 21 | "Don't let lesbians sleep under your roof," says Pat Robertson. Or your children could catch teh gey. |

"I cannot view Mandela as any other than a leader who engaged in mass genocide of his own innocent people." (The anti-abortion crowd weighs in on Mandela's pro-choice legacy.) |

Bryan Fischer, the American Family Association's homophobe-in-chief: "India's Supreme Court upheld a law passed by the elected representatives of the people. We need a Supreme Court which will do the same." Those "elected representatives" were actually... English colonists. |

We wouldn't have dared done this with Mao! Or Deng! Or Gorbachev! Commie propaganda coup. |

Madiba is burning in hell. 'Unfortunately, while Mandela did some great things for the nation of South Africa by ending apartheid, Heaven is like an exclusive club, unsaved unwelcome. Mandela died unsaved, and is therefore not welcome in Heaven.'(Warning: Poe's Law in action!) |

David Frum warns Americans for the restoration of the Soviet Union and urges the US to intervene in the Ukraine: "An inward-looking America is averting its attention from its own most important interests and highest ideals." An inward-looking America also does not invade countries left and right. |
