We’re used to Pat Robertson saying batshit crazy things in response to questions from 700 Club viewers, but this one just leaves me shaking my head. A woman says that her husband cheated on her and his response was to say hey, he’s a man, they do that — and it’s your job to be …

Principal Still Punishing Katelyn Campbell
Remember Katelyn Campbell, the West Virginia high school student who very publicly protested a dishonest and disgusting mandatory assembly on abstinence at her school? It seems the principal who threatened to call the university she planned to attend for that isn’t done trying to punish her:

Jesus vs Voodoo in North Miami Mayoral Race
On Tuesday, the voters in North Miami went to the polls to elect a new mayor. One of the six candidates for that office is Anna Pierre, who is — to put it mildly — batshit crazy. A month ago she claimed that her opponents were using voodoo against her. But that’s okay, because she …

Ray Comfort Teaches How to Proselytize
In Ray Comfort’s latest column for the Worldnutdaily, he decides to teach people how to proselytize to gay people. He offers up this conversation he allegedly had on an airplane with a lesbian couple as the perfect example of how to do this the right way:

The Fallen Eagle Has Landed. With a Thud.
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’s Moneymaking Scheme
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 …

Buehner: Single Women Under Father’s Control
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:

Keyes Lies About Condoms
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 …

Wiles Links 9/11 to the Illuminati
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 …

King: Jason Collins Undermining Civilization
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.

Issa Grasps at Straws
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:

Ooooh, They Have Questions
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:

Bachmann and the Laws of Logic
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 …

OMG! Obama is Stealing Motherhood!
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.

Glenn Beck and the ‘Movement of Darkness’
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 …
