Ron Paul Angrily Denies Being 9/11 Truther, But...

Sun, Jan 1, 2012 at 2:48 pm PST

In this clip, ABC's Jake Tapper asks Ron Paul about a report that he believes in 9/11 conspiracy theories, and Dr. Paul goes ballistic.

Drudge Report 'Terrorists Have Won' Photo is from 2007

Mon, Nov 15, 2010 at 12:04 pm PST

Drudge Report has been pushing the latest round of TSA scare stories hard (and often linking to Alex Jones conspiracy sites as sources), and right now he's running this picture with the headline, "The Terrorists Have Won." Only problem: if the terrorists did win, it must have happened in September 2007 ...

Ron Paul Wants to End the Fed, So the GOP Puts Him in Charge of the Fed

Fri, Nov 5, 2010 at 3:37 pm PDT

For the past few years I've been watching Ron Paul's rise to power with a gut-wrenching sense of inevitability; despite his overtly racist newsletters, insane economic theories, and associations with extremists and conspiracy wackos of all kinds, from the John Birch Society to Alex Jones, his star just keeps rising ...

Rep. Gohmert's Evidence-Free Terror Baby Fear Story

Fri, Aug 13, 2010 at 9:40 am PDT

Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) was featured at LGF last month for his mind-bendingly stupid fear-mongering about changeling terror babies from the future, and here he is on CNN ranting and yelling like a madman when challenged to produce evidence by Anderson Cooper. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the modern Republican ...

Judge Napolitano: Bush and Cheney Should Have Been Indicted

Tue, Jul 13, 2010 at 10:58 am PDT

Left wing sites are buzzing about Judge Andrew Napolitano’s statements on C-SPAN’s Book TV, that President Bush and VP Cheney should have been indicted for torturing, spying, and arresting people without warrants.

Marc Cooper: The Devolution of PJ Media

Wed, Jul 7, 2010 at 5:02 pm PDT

Marc Cooper ruefully tells the tale, the tale of a fateful trip: Pajamas Media Drops Trou. And speaking of Pajamas Media and environmentalism (in the early days of PJM we discussed ways to make science and environmentalism more attractive to conservatives — a goal obviously long forgotten), this is the kind ...

Rand Paul Compares US to the Fall of the Roman Empire

Fri, Jul 2, 2010 at 10:29 am PDT

Yesterday Rand Paul, the rising star of the Republican Party, compared the United States to the Roman Empire in its last days. This sort of rhetoric is indistinguishable from the anti-American rants of Al Qaeda, and it’s now standard tea party fare. Why does Rand Paul hate America? SHEPHERDSVILLE, Ky. — ...

Pajamas Media Converges with Alex Jones

Sat, Jun 26, 2010 at 1:25 pm PDT

One of the most personally disturbing and saddening aspects of the ongoing right wing meltdown for me has been the utter disintegration of Pajamas Media, which started with the idea of being a non-partisan blog-based news source, but has now completed its transformation into one of the most insane wingnut ...

Thu, Jun 24, 2010 at 8:12 pm PDT

At right wing site Hot Air, token atheist Allahpundit tries his best to spin an appearance on Fox News by Judge Andrew Napolitano, in which Napolitano defends BP: Shep to Napolitano: You’re grossing me out by defending BP.

NYT Treats Judge Napolitano with Kid Gloves

Fri, Jun 18, 2010 at 11:20 am PDT

For some reason, New York Times writer Brian Stelter goes very easy on Judge Andrew Napolitano in this article about Napolitano’s new freakshow on Fox Business; for example, there’s no mention of the fact that Napolitano has featured conspiracy nutjob and 9/11 Truther Alex Jones as a guest on “Freedom ...

GOP: The Party of Tea Parties and Alex Jones

Mon, May 17, 2010 at 9:25 am PDT

One of the best indicators of the extremism that now dominates the Republican Party is the very likely nomination of Ron Paul’s son, Rand Paul, for the US Senate in Kentucky. Like his father Ron, Rand Paul is about as far to the right as it’s possible for a human ...

Outrageous Outrage of the Day!

It’s getting more and more difficult to keep up with the brain-dead outrageous outrages firehosing out of the strange echo chamber known as the wingnut blogosphere on a daily — sometimes hourly — basis.

GOP's Expert Climate Change Witness: Lord High Denier Monckton

Thu, May 6, 2010 at 7:46 pm PDT

In the best example yet of the GOP’s total disconnection from reality, Rep. Ed Markey (D-MA) called hearings on climate science, and the Republican Party chose as their sole “expert” witness — quack non-scientist ranting loon Lord Christopher Monckton, also known as a frequent guest on the utterly insane Alex ...
