Oh man, the latest freakout in the right wing blogosphere is quite hilarious. The White House twitter account has a fallen eagle on it! OMG! It’s some sort of secret Muslim signal, like those infamous “terrorist fist bumps” that the president and first lady give one another. The Jawa Report appears to have started the …

Ralph Reed was once Pat Robertson’s boy wonder, the head of the Christian Coalition. Then he left, made a failed run at governor of Georgia and founded his own group, the Faith and Freedom Coalition. And now he uses his deep connections on the Christian right and his massive mailing list to make some serious …

Dave Buehner of Generations Radio launched into quite a diatribe on his radio show, explaining — accurately — how the Bible clearly says that a woman is owned by her father until she gets married, then she is owned by her husband. And therefore they have no freedom or self-determination at any point:

Alan Keyes seems to like the Talk to Solomon radio show, as he’s been a frequent guest over the last few weeks. Maybe it’s because Solomon gives him free reign to deliver his breathtakingly incoherent rants and tell lies. You know, like claiming that condoms have an 80% failure rate. He says letting a child …

Rick Wiles is quickly distinguishing himself even from the usual wingnut radio hosts for his bizarre and incoherent rants and conspiracy theories. On a recent show he claimed that not only were the World Trade Centers destroyed by the Illuminati, but the height of the new tower there is a tribute to the Illuminati as …

Rep. Steve King, the prom king of Wingnuttia High School, is quite upset about Jason Collins coming out as a gay basketball player. And he’s even more upset about President Obama calling him afterward. And wouldn’t you know it, it involves Tim Tebow and the death of Western civilization too.

Darrell Issa is one of the more buffoonish members of the House (which is saying a lot). He’s never met an issue he couldn’t demagogue and he’s really pushing the Benghazi story in an attempt to damage Obama. Listen to his latest argument about this:

As the Christian right continues its hysterical freakout over the Pentagon’s non-existent policy of court-martialing any soldier who utters the word “God” in the presence of another person, this may be the silliest story of all. The Worldnutdaily is asking questions:

Last week it was revealed that the IRS had singled out groups that had “tea party” or “patriot” in their names last year while reviewing applications for non-profit tax-exempt status. This is a genuine problem and the Inspector General of the IRS is investigating. Once that report is issued, there are likely to be people …

Yes, this is the latest faux freakout from the wingnuts. The Department of Education last week announced a change to the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form that will more accurately reflect the many different types of families that exist in this country.

This is an amusing rant from Glenn Beck on his show last week. He says that every 20-40 years there’s a “movement of darkness” and that “people of light” have to push it back. And it has something to do with hippies and communists, Martin Luther King and Janis Joplin. So we need to go …

Ken Hutcherson, pro football player turned bigoted wingnut preacher, doesn’t like gay people. Actually, he really, really hates gay people and wants them oppressed in every imaginable way. And he’s quite upset with another columnist for the Christian Post who praised Jason Collins. So he repeats this tired old bit of idiocy:

Matt Barber went on Bryan Fischer’s radio show last week and the results were predictably hilarious. Fischer demonstrated the total lack of self-awareness that led me to name an award after him by declaring that the left is “driven by irrationality.” And Barber said it’s easy to be a conservative Christian because “we just simply …

The latest target of right wing pearl-clutching is the Common Core educational standards. Predictably, they’re part of a huge conspiracy to brainwash children and destroy God, grandmothers and Lee Greenwood. Here’s an amusing conversation between wingnut writer Sher Zieve and Christina Michas of the Eagle Forum:

A psychiatrist in Boston has lost his license to practice medicine for committing what is essentially religion-based medical malpractice in counseling a 16-year old girl who reported parental neglect and abuse to him. Rather than reporting that abuse, as required by law, Dr. Raymond Kam decided that she was demon-possessed and appointed himself as her …
