It’s run by Andy Schlafly, Phyllis Schlafly’s son, and yes, it’s real, although it has a pretty exclusive definition of conservative. ---

It’s so terrible you have to think it’s been pumped up by people who’re seeing how bad they can make it. Little by little. Maybe I’ll add something. ---

“Don’t know where to start” doesn’t begin to explain this. In parts I thought they were spoofing themselves. You sure there’s not a few super left wingers posting a few of the more outrageous facts on there for funzies? I mean… Really… ---

This article isn’t on Conservapedia, but it is linked to from Conservapedia’s front page. Why Rush Limbaugh is a leading American intellectual: [http://www.americanthinker.com/2008/11/why\_rush\_limbaugh\_is\_a\_leading.html](http://www.americanthinker.com/2008/11/why_rush_limbaugh_is_a_leading.html) I read the whole thing looking for the punch line. I couldn’t find it. ---

Okay I’m convinced you could copy and paste this article, and maybe the atheist one, word for word and post it on Uncyclopedia or Encyclopaedia Dramatica and no one would bat an eye. ---

Oh, **Mental Guy** , I am not happy you linked that page. I think I got a little dumber just reading it! ETA: As if there isn’t much more dumb stuff on there, but this: > [@](#): > > Obama uses the Muslim Pakistani pronunciation for “Pakistan” rather than the common American one. Really raised an eyebrow. Um, so do I! I happen to speak Hindi/Urdu though. It’s appalling what these people constitute a “furriner”; hell, I wasn’t even born here, but dagnabbit, I’m an _American_. ---

We know that you are really a secret Muslim sleeper, and your denials just prove that assertion further. You even admit that you speak those Muslim languages. There is only a 1% chance that you’re not. 😛 I think I may rewrite Talkin’ John Birch Society Blues as Talkin’ Conservapedia Blues I know Neil Armstrong is a secret Muslim Look at that crescent moon. ---
