Unbelievable. Social Media is swamped with conservatives peddling a new conspiracy theory. You have to see some of the Tweets insisting that Obama had Breitbart assassinated to keep him quiet...

A pretty decent speech he gave just a few weeks ago.
Personally I don't agree with everything he stood for and I think he's talking nonsense in some of this speech, but he was an insider, so we have to at least consider what he said especially in light of his sudden death.

"The videos are going to come out, the narrative is going to come out, that Barack Obama met a bunch of silver ponytails in the 1980s, like Bill (Ayers) and Bernadine (Dohrn), who said one day we would have the presidency, and the rest of us slept as they plotted, and they plotted, and they plotted and they oversaw hundreds of millions of dollars in the Annenberg Challenge and they had real money, from real capitalists. Then they became communists. We got to work on that. That is a parenthesis. Barack Obama is a radical, we should not be afraid to say that! Okay? And Barack Obama was launched from Bill and Bernadine’s salon. I’ve been there.”A pretty decent speech he gave just a few weeks ago.

Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum on Sunday dismissed former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney’s win in the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) straw poll by insinuating the vote had been rigged.
On the third an final day of the conference, CPAC announced Romney had beaten Santorum, 38 percent to 31 percent. Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and Texas Congressman Ron Paul trailed with 15 percent and 12 percent respectively.
“Well, you know, those straw polls at CPAC — as you know for years Ron Paul has won those because he just trucks in a lot of people, pays for their ticket, they come in a vote, and then they leave,” Santorum explained to CNN’s Candy Crowley. “We didn’t do that. We don’t do that. I don’t try to rig straw polls.”
“Do you think that Gov. Romney rigged it?” Crowley asked.
“Well, you have to talk to the Romney campaign about how many tickets they bought,” Santorum replied.
“Somebody is telling you that they think Mitt Romney’s team, at least, paid for folks to go and vote for him at the straw poll,” Crowley observed.
“That’s standard procedure at all of these straw polls, that campaigns that want to win go out and recruit people and provide free tickets for them to come and vote,” Santorum explained. “And there’s nothing wrong with that, and that’s absolutely a strategy. We just think just don’t think that’s a good use of our resources. Gov. Romney obviously may have a different idea.”

Huckabee insists that Government should not lecture us on how much we should care for the poor, or how much we should donate to charities. Which is a complete twist and fabrication of what the President meant. Mike goes on to insist that the Church is doing just fine taking care of widows and orphans without any interference from the government...

Controversial right-wing blogger Andrew Breitbart lashed out at “Occupy” protesters Friday evening outside the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC).
According to Campus Progress, Breitbart began yelling “Behave yourself!” repeatedly to protesters, then called them “freaks and animals.” He was ushered out of the area by hotel security a few moments after, but increased in his tirade by also screaming “Stop raping people!” to protesters.
Earlier in the day, Breitbart spoke at CPAC and continued to describe President Barack Obama as having “communists” friends who plotted to obtain the presidency in the 1980′s.

Rick Santorum, who scored several wins this week in the Republican presidential race, told a cheering crowd at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington DC this morning that climate change is a leftist scientific conspiracy to destroy America. He railed that the “facade of man-made global warming” might convince people with the “sentimentality” to be “stewards of this earth” to think their should be limits on the burning of fossil fuels:
“One of the favorite things of the left is to use your sentimentality, and your proper understanding and belief that we are stewards of this earth and we have a responsibility to hand off a beautiful earth to the next generation. They use that and they have used it in the past to try to scare you into supporting radical ideas on the environment. They tried it with this idea, this politicization of science called man-made global warming. President Obama, you may remember, tried to pass cap-and-trade and tried to get control not only of the health care system but of the energy industry, the manufacturing industry, another two big sectors of this economy, and using this facade of man-made global warming. I stood up and fought against those things. Why? because they will destroy the very foundation of prosperity in our country.”
Santorum argued that his public embrace of the radical conspiracy theory that the world’s scientific community has concocted the greenhouse effect to enable socialists to take over the fossil fuel industry will help him win the White House.
“They try to scare you and intimidate you to trust them and give them more power,” Santorum concluded. “We need somebody who is willing to go out on these big issues of the day and draw contrasts.”

CPAC is here, so it’s time for everyone’s annual look at the psychos invited to the premier conservative event of the year, and those unfortunate enough to have been excluded.
GOProud, the gay Republican group that was founded because the Log Cabin Republicans were considered too concerned about gay civil rights and not sufficiently focused on “fiscal issues,” is not invited this year, because they are too “aggressive” about being gay, which made Jim DeMint uncomfortable.
CPAC also uninvited the John Birch Society, which had made a triumphant return to mainstream conservative acceptance in 2010, when they co-sponsored the conference.
But! While the Birchers and the open homosexualists are no longer welcome, there is still room for multiple outspoken white nationalists!

The following are effective immediately!
10.1 Blues Lyrics or Facebook Status?
Effective immediately, someone has to make a game show (or drinking game, or whacky morning drive radio bit) where contestants try to guess whether a statement is either someone's Facebook status or the lyrics to a blues song. Examples: I have nobody this weekend. Facebook status or blues lyric? I'm gonna get drunk! Facebook or blues? Some dork you barely know just scored nine million points in Bejeweled! Facebook or blues? And so on. If you can figure out a way to make money off this idea, remember you have to pay me a percentage. Or so help me, I'll defriend you.
10.2 An Orgy of Summer News Filler
Effective immediately, we need to help out our buddies in the mainstream media. They're always getting blamed for creating the 24 hour news cycle and its absurd rituals, but they're victims just as much as the rest of us. Can you imagine having to fill all that time with one inane story after another, without the assistance of the keynote speakers at the Conservative Political Action Conference?
Point is, even in a cornfield of insipid, there are limits to how much banality can be harvested. Combine that with the fact that it's been a while since someone squirted out nearly a baker's dozen worth of kids and that renegade inflatable bounce house stories died out faster than Newt Gingrich's fake presidential campaign, and you can see why our news media is hurting.
What's a filler-reporter to do? Golly dang it, it's summer! They should be relaxing, setting the video feed on auto-pilot to run the usual alternating stories about vacation traffic and the heat. But no, the 24 hour news cycle demands constant attention.
Let's help them out. The next time some woman uses her vagina as a Pez™ dispenser, let's all crowd around her crotch and turn the poly-birth procession into a parade. What will we use for floats? Renegade inflatable bounce houses, of course! Drop the kids in and they just fly away!
It's win-win-wind! The mother gets the attention she wants without all the parenting she didn't want. Inflatable bounce houses get free product placement. Ambulance chaser lawyers get another class action suit, and they can share the spoils with you! (And by spoils, I mean of the millions they win, you get, oh... at least a buck sixty-five.) Best of all, our reporter friends can run this story for weeks! It's a friggin' orgasmic collision of news filler!
Our over-worked media friends will have hours of pointless reporting at their fingertips, allowing them a full summer of free time to spend at the bar wondering if they really needed that Master's degree in Journalism.
10.3 Coming Out in favor of Man-Horse Marriage
Effective immediately, those of us in favor of gay marriage must admit to our hidden agenda. We have to confess guilt to what failed senate candidate J.D. Hayworth claimed: that pushing for gay marriage across the entire USA will inevitably result in people marrying horses. (Source)
Now before you go saying Hayworth was just another slippery dope using the slippery slope argument, I ask that you look deep inside yourself. Humbling, isn't it? Because your skin isn't transparent. But also because we know that we're busted. Hayworth was 100% correct. So let me say it outright. I am pro-gay-marriage. And I'm totally okay with man-horse-marriage...
...as soon as horses start driving to city hall, signing internet petitions, writing their congressmen, having organized marches where they demand the right to marry, vocalizing something other than snort and nay, and doing something with a marriage certificate other than chew it up, then yes, I will be backing man-horse marriage 100%.
As of now, however, I'm merely a sleeper agent. An advocate of human-on-human action, but ready at a moment's notice to gallop into Hayworth's horse-loving paradise. But that surely won't be the end of it. Soon I and my long-time-long-faced-companions will be thrusting deeper into the moral flesh of our nayyyytion, bringing to life the even more demented man-on-dog fantasies of religious extremist, presidential candidate and (apparently) bestiality expert Rick Santorum!
So there, I've admitted it all. I'm pro-gay marriage, but that's a mere sliver of my greater agenda. Now if only Santorum and Hayworth can admit that they're allowing their depraved obsessions to masquerade as morality, then everything will be out in the open.
Sincerely,

The new senator's pushing to ban abortion while also restricting birthright citizenship. Ben Adler on the contradictory pulls on the Constitution and the resurgence of Republicans' social issues.
Sometimes new members of Congress take some time to get settled in before proposing legislation.
Not Rand Paul, the new Republican senator from Kentucky. Paul inherited many traits from his father, Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX): Like his dad, Rand is a doctor who entered politics to advance a fiercely held commitment to the family's quirky ideology. (The enthusiastic young volunteers for Ron Paul's 2008 presidential campaign called it "Goldwater conservatism" in reference to Barry Goldwater, the patron saint of the small-government set, not Paul's desire to return to the gold standard. And this week it became apparent that—like his father, who has introduced many quixotic bills such as the Federal Reserve Board Abolition Act—Rand Paul intends to regularly introduce legislation with no realistic chance of passing.
While Paul might be expected to take after his father in this regard, the causes he has taken up have been surprising. Whereas Ron Paul has focused his career on fiscal conservatism and foreign-policy isolationism, Rand Paul is promoting socially conservative positions.
On Monday, Paul announced that he is joining Sen. Roger Wicker (R-MS) in cosponsoring the Life at Conception Act. The law would declare that a person's life begins at conception. Paul and Wicker reason that if fetuses become legal persons protected under the Constitution's 14th Amendment, which guarantees equal protection under the laws, then it will override the constitutional right to an abortion that the Supreme Court found in Roe v. Wade.
Of course, if fetuses had all the rights of a person, it might lead to interpretations that—ironically, given that Paul campaigned on a strong commitment to privacy and liberty,—would vastly expand government power. For example, if a pregnant woman smokes or drinks alcohol, or simply eats unhealthily, could she face prosecution for reckless endangerment of a child? In any case, Paul confidently predicted that "passage of the Life at Conception Act would reverse Roe v. Wade without the need for a constitutional amendment."
But he is not averse to amending the Constitution when necessary. On Thursday, Paul and Sen. David Vitter (R-LA) introduced a resolution that would amend the Constitution to prevent children born to illegal immigrants from gaining automatic citizenship. Under the current interpretation of the 14th Amendment, which Paul and Vitter oppose, citizenship is given automatically to anyone born on U.S. soil. So Paul wants to expand the 14th Amendment to cover the fertilized embryos of American citizens while restricting it to exclude the babies of illegal immigrants. It's not clear where the fetus in an illegal immigrant's uterus would fit into this equation.
That Paul is focusing on social issues suggests the new crop of Republicans in D.C. may not be any less socially conservative, or any less interested in social issues, than their predecessors.
It's notable that Paul has decided to start his career with multiple pieces of legislation that take a staunchly conservative stance on a contentious social issue. During the 2010 campaign, there was much chatter about how the Tea Party movement was focused on economic and financial issues rather than emphasizing cultural battles like gun control, gay rights, abortion and immigration that played a prominent role in previous Republican campaigns. While some Republican candidates, such as Christine O'Donnell in Delaware, had a long history of promoting social conservatism, Paul was regarded as the epitome of the new GOP. Paul opposes the Patriot Act and the federal war on drugs, which was an electoral liability for him. That Paul is focusing on social issues suggests the new crop of Republicans in D.C. may not be any less socially conservative, or any less interested in social issues, than their predecessors.
Or maybe it's just a sign that the traditionalist wing of the GOP is resurgent and will be getting more attention in the months ahead. Some major conservative institutions like the Family Research Council and the Heritage Foundation are boycotting the upcoming Conservative Political Action Conference to protest the inclusion of GOProud, a gay organization. Several potential 2012 Republican candidates, including Ron Paul, are expected to speak at CPAC. It will be interesting to see how much time they devote to social issues.The new senator's pushing to ban abortion while also restricting birthright... more
