Far right conspiracy lunacy is now well entrenched even on sites that used to be considered “mainstream conservative” — like Townhall.com.

Any ...

World Net Daily’s source for their latest insane Birther article is James Edwards — an open white supremacist who runs the vile “Political Cesspool” radio show in Tennessee: Hawaii elections clerk: Obama not born here.

I just spoke with Dana Goldstein from The Daily Beast, who has been trying to get more information from Reuters about the photos; so far Reuters isn’t sharing anything. And serious questions remain.

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.

A shout out to LGF from Irshad Manji: Take a cue from Charles Johnson. He runs a blog called LittleGreenFootballs. As The Daily Beast’s Jon Avlon notes, “Johnson had risen to prominence as a committed anti-jihadist — a cause he continues to fight. ‘I used to get pretty nasty emails ...
