Our country's founders believed in aliens, and they had plenty of support from the ancients.
Betraying its own people, the Greek government has surrendered to the
In this comment thread I try to educate some conservatives on "social issues" -- but they're probably unreachable.
What have the Democrats done for us lately?
God's wrath hasn't been much in evidence (found via Republic of Gilead). And this is very much to the point.
Science is closing in on why memory deteriorates with age -- and how to repair it.
Muslim charities are raising money to help rebuild the black churches burned since the Charleston attack (found vie Progressive Eruptions).
The Christian Right is not only crypto-fascist, it even has its own flag. It's not doing so well at hanging on to real power, though.
Exxon knew about global warming for decades while still funding denialist propaganda.
It's striking that there's been no mass protest against the Supreme Court's gay marriage ruling, although the usual nutcases are pretty honked off about it (found via Republic of Gilead).
Rubio has a plan -- to destroy higher education in the US.
Let the states decide!
Fair and Unbalanced blog has been hosting a lot of debate on gay marriage recently. Start with this item and its comment thread.
What do the fundies really mean by "old-fashioned"?
At least one South Carolina legislator is a nut.
Yes, it does matter when people don't know anything.
China's stock market is crashing (found via Green Eagle).
The roots of conservative opposition to gay marriage are creepier than you think.

The anti-gay crusaders won't be giving up anytime soon. Visit some of the far right blogs and read how they refer to gay people. These "loving" Christians are full of hate and resentment because a majority of Americans don't share their views on gay marriage or anything gay.

I'm waiting for the photos of SS and Gestapo officers with Euro-flag armbands. For it's now becoming clear that Germany views the Eurozone as the empire that they couldn't gain by force of arms.
Shaw: I see plenty of things like that -- one of the reasons I read the right-wing net is to keep myself aware of what they're really like. They're a shrinking minority now, but the hate and vitriol remain alive, certainly.

Comrade: I'm increasingly convinced that that's the case. But like their previous empires, this one will eventually blow up in their faces and collapse. The same arrogance and overreach are clearly in evidence. And some people in other countries are getting very uneasy.

No, in reality the state house has so many nuts serving as elected officials the trees surrounding the capital building are overrun with squirrels.
I'm sure they are abundant there. He's just the featured nut of the week, one might say.
