Teenagers across Britain march in protests against the Conservative government's savage cuts to education spending. Fox News uses this as an illustration of "a rebellion against high taxes."

Some went and posted an anti-science screed called "Error in Rigour", by an Amitakh Stanford, to a bunch of science- and skepticism-oriented forums in the same day. The purpose is so far unknown, but the original website is highly recommended to green ink connoisseurs.

Bryan Fischer: The latest Congressional Medal of Honor winner is a wuss.

Representative John Shimkus insists we shouldn't concerned about the planet being destroyed because God promised Noah it wouldn't happen again after the great flood The Daily Mail reports.

Oh noes! Obama appeared on scary black people hip-hop radio!
