Stupid Republican idea of the day

There is only one message: cake now, pie later

I didn’t mean that Schlafly himself intends it to be a false-flag operation. I think he’s probably totally sincere. But I’m pretty sure he doesn’t edit it all by himself.

I don’t think that it’s as open to public editing as Wikipedia is, but it’s conceivable that there are people who managed to get past whatever screening processes he uses who intentionally edit it in ways that make it look even stupider than it is.

Well, the sysops have a scorched-earth editing policy.

Read Conservapedia’s article on Obama. They’re still full-on birthers. Especially read the article’s Talk page.

The Something Awful forums, where I am also a member, have two long running threads dedicated to Conservipedia and the Free Republic.

Tennessee state legislator: Shootings of children are Acts of God, and there’s nothing we can do to prevent them — they’re something that just happen, like bicycle accidents.

I certainly hope this God character is apprehended soon.

So if you shoot children in Indiana, are you protected by the religious freedom law?

(Don’t need answer fast.)

Fast-rising SRIOTD star Tom Cotton says he eats birthday cake every day. With ice cream.

Well, the sugar highs might help explain him, to a point.

Stand Your Ground might cover it in Florida.

You can have my guns when you pry them out of my child’s cold dead hands!

Hey, just because some liberals are like that doesn’t mean it’s a cult.

Is it still pay to play only?

So does Wikipedia.

It varies. It goes open for varying periods, I have no idea if it’s open at the moment.

It’s not very much for a basic membership. $10.

And your eternal soul.

Kansas bans Welfare recipients from using cruise ships

That’s ridiculous. But this is simply insidious:

That’s more than $10 a month for cash-strapped Kansasans which instead of feeding their kids goes to banks making billions of dollars a year in profits.

It ain’t. It’s been paywall’d since mid-february or something like that, and it’s a pain in my arse :). But then I suppose that’s the point.

Welfare clients spending money on fortune-tellers is a problem in Kansas? They need a law?

Course, if a welfare bum puts a couple of bucks in the collection plate down at the Cleetus Baptist Church, that there is freedom of religion! But your local neighborhood necromancer? Oh, hell no!

The fortune tellers in congress predicted it might happen. They aren’t very good at seeing the future though or they might have seen how their budget would bankrupt them.

Nevada is one of the 37 states that use debits cards for various benefits, including unemployment compensation. The thing is, you can only get money out in $20 increments. AFAIK, any money left in an account becomes the bank’s money. Even if it reverts to the state, it’s certainly not helping the intended recipient.

Banks being the middleman between governments and citizens is a bad idea, IMO.
