Check out this explosion of crazy.

Now I know Conservapedia is well known for their hilariously bad pages on a lot of different things, but Obama's stuck out as a particularly funny one. I really noticed the sadness on this one due to two things:

1.) Conservapedia's motto is 'the trustworthy encyclopedia'.
2.) A fair amount of the insane things in this page have actually been said by people on this board.

PS: For bonus crazy, check out the talk page. The person named "Aschlafly" is the owner of the site.

The article can't even seem to agree with itself on how it wants to smear Obama. In the beginning it claims he's a muslim, then it goes on to talk about how he's been influenced by Rev. Wright's evil form of Christianity for 20 years, and then during the charity part it starts talking about how he acts like an atheist.

I'm getting awfully confused about what I'm supposed to hate Obama for.

Wow, something else. I think this line kind of summarizes the whole attitude:

He graduated magna cum laude with his J.D. in 1991, but did not serve in a clerkship. Federal clerkships are the typical post-graduate position for top law students.

Ahh yes, he graduated in the top of his class but there's still something wrong with him because he didn't do this completely unrelated thing. I also like how they blatantly proclaim him as the first Muslim president.

The October 2008 crimes against Academy Award winner Jennifer Hudson's family highlight Obama's record against law and order, as he voted against making it a crime in Illinois "for convicts on probation or on bail to have contact with a street gang".[8] The person of interest in the murders of Hudson's mother, brother, and 7-year-old nephew is the estranged husband of Hudson's sister and a convicted felon who had violated his parole conditions. [9] "'We've got 75,000 gang members - that's almost six gang members to one police officer.'"[10]

Hahaha, what the hell does this have to do with anything?

"We are not going low at all, You Who Did Not Leave Your Name. This entry is nothing about the truth about Barack Obama. Unfortunately, liberals like you will not find out until it is too late.--Saxplayer 21:20, 22 October 2008"

Freudian Slip?

Why is it that anything calling itself "Conservative" seems unable to speak Truth or Facts? We all were kinda put off by Conservapedia due to its' Creationism and other Religious Fundamentalism, but this kind of crap is a whole other level stupid.

Their article on evolution starts off with a picture of Hitler.

They even cite the flagella of a bacterium as "evidence" of intelligent design, despite the fact that this has been debunked by people who actually know something about biology.

Dammit, science, keep your light away from our dark, comfortable ignorance!

I used to think that Conservapedia was just kind of bone-headed. Now I think it is simple trash for simple minded people.

Obama hoped to become President when he was sworn in as U.S. Senator in 2004, and did not use a Koran at that time. Subsequently Democratic House member Keith Ellison established the precedent for being sworn in using the Koran, and there is no guarantee that Obama would not do likewise if sworn in as President.

I find this so unbeleivably distorted as to question any thing in this site. and so what if he was sworn in using, say the 'On the Origin of Species'.

Hours of fun in here.

I looked up Sarah Palin, and it doesn't even talk about wether she's shaved or not. Sloppy, sloppy, sloppy.

The doctors observe that "Obama's logo is noteworthy. It is always there, a small one in the middle of the podium, providing a point of visual fixation ... [that] resembles a crystal ball, a favorite of hypnotists."
There you have it, you were hypnotized into voting for him. We are all his helpless thralls, in the march to an- Islamic, or was it atheist? no wait, it was radical Christian sect- one world government.

They win all the stupid awards. You don't really need to look up Intelligent Design on there, you already know what it says.

This is what people are talking about when they say the Republican party has become the Stupid Party.

Check back through the archives on here. A surprisingly (and sadly) large number of posters have expressed one or more of the insane things in that article.

I think there's only one poster (Butterbean) who really would buy the whole thing hook, line, and sinker, but more people than you think are really that dumb.

I'd be willing to bet that it's a laughably small portion of Americans that believe all of that stuff. Maybe one thing or another, but not all.

I think I phrased my post poorly. More people than you think believe one or more of those, but you are right there are only a few crazies like Butterbean that buy most or all of it.

Ah, k. I'll agree to that. Does it really matter though if Obama is Muslim or Christian or an athiest? I honestly don't care what he is :) It is funny how people just make stuff up though.

I'm on a mailing list for a local firearm dealer. I didn't want to be on it, but about 5% of the emails are pertinant to state laws being formulated. The rest can range from mildly crazy to downright crazy.
