FOK: Snappy Answers To Stupid Headlines For February 28, 2011
http://foknewschannel.com/snappy-answers-to-stupid-headlines-for-february-28-2011/

RW Site “Conservapedia” Writes: “Wonder why you’re hearing so little about the Oscar winners? Because the conservative film The King’s Speech destroyed the liberal Facebook movie about the gossip site that lowers academic performance and breaks up marriages.”

Oh, Sweet Jesus on Hockey Skates. The conservative film “The King’s Speech”? How do we break it to them? Newly-minted Oscar winning Colin Firth was not only, I’m proud to say, a regular viewer of Countdown, but he also served as the guest editor of a BBC 4 Radio program late last year. He asked its staff to conduct scientific studies on whether political point-of-view was influenced by the specific physical structure of a person’s brain. Or, to put it in his blunter personal style: “I just decided to find out what was biologically wrong with people who don’t agree with me.”

In short, he was trying to figure out what’s wrong with conservatives.

3. They're drooling creationist imbeciles.
Why even bother worrying about what that circle jerk of pinheads is saying to itself?

4. Love Conservapedia
Here's the second paragraph on their entry for the Academy Awards:

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has, over the years, been controlled by many immoral characters and informal lobby groups, most notably homosexuals and communists and supporters of Al Gore who wish to contribute to the promotion and funding for "global warming" causes by giving him "critical acclaim." Conservatives are regularly passed over, despite the superiority of their work/acting, and lifetime achievement awards are doled out to those who have been active in liberal politics.


The whole place is just so over the top it almost rises to the level of camp. That there are people out there that consider it a reliable and valid alternative to Wikipedia is hilarious. But I guess it should come as no surprise for people who consider Fox a valid alternative to news.
