The GOP's anti-wanking, anti-evolution candidate in Delaware, Christine O'Donnell, has been caught in another "embellishment" of her education record; her bio claims she attended the University of Oxford, but as Greg Sargent details, the truth is she attended one course from an organization called the Phoenix Institute, that rented space ...

The "gay Republican" is a weird chimera, trying to carve out a place in a political party fiercely committed to denying them civil rights. I'd like to wish them good luck, but this seems like the very definition of "wasted effort." And Ann Coulter's speech at GOProud's "Homocon" event is a ...

Anti-abortion religious fanatic Randall Terry (founder of the militant Operation Rescue) has a new cause: he's launching a cross-country campaign to destroy Qurans.

Sarah Palin got outraged at the accurate reports that she told anti-wanking GOP candidate Christine O'Donnell to only "speak through Fox News," but O'Donnell obviously took Palin's advice to heart: O'Donnell vows no more national media appearances.

At Salon, Justin Elliott found a 2003 article by anti-wanking creationist Christine O'Donnell in which she warned America's youth about the lurking threat of coed dorm rooms, leading inevitably, inexorably, to orgy rooms and menage a trois rooms (with any luck): O'Donnell warned of 'orgy rooms' in college dorms. Dorm ...
