Forums filled with crazy conservatives?
I love reading forums on my lunch break, especially those that house crazy conservatives. One of my new favorites is the political board on a website I visit for orioles news (www.orioleshangout.com).

What are some other good ones to laugh at the ridiculousness of the right?

1. I don't have to visit forums; the media shows them everyday
I would rather not read their drivel. It's bad enough I have to listen to it every day on the major news networks.

2. Free Republic and Lucianne.com have always been good...
Pigboy's website is pretty funny too.

4. American Forum has been overrun by them.
That was a site advertized in the Lounge as wanting people from all sides. At first, there were a few standard, reasonable conservatives, but they, and most liberals didn't last long when the neo-cons came in, started throwing their epithets & stereotypes around, pissing off liberals, and getting liberals banned...and of course linking Newsmax, Moonie Times, and WorldNetDaily as their sources, and challenging the rest of us to "argue the substance, and not the source"...The source is the SUBSTANCE, idiots!

That place started out with promise, but all they want is a bunch of Colmes type liberals to beat up on. I rarely post there anymore, but I wish I can avoid the train wreck entirely.:puke:

5. I love the bannings
I've been banned multiple times from Orioleshangout.com forums. I've been burmart, ashleym, and a bunch of other things. Basically, if you see someone who has "Banned" in thier user info, that was probably me. Usually it comes right after I corner one of them on how wrong they are.

Sadly, the registration process usually takes a day with them, so they can run free without me for a while.

I personally loved this thread...where I basically stole one of the plaid adder's posts.
