To add a bit of twist to this story, the Texas GOP run board of education is looking to change the curriculum of our schools so that it focuses less on those Liberal people who had a hand in our society (might as well skip over the 1930s-1968, nothing interesting happened!) and play up the heroic founding fathers of our country, Ronald Reagan and Newt Gingrich.  Oh, yeah, while they'd include the bits about McCarthy and McCarthyism in the 50s, they'd make sure to change the subject from insane witchhunter to tragic figure, beset by communists.

By the Maker, it's like Conservapedia come to life. I'll be sure to mash that in the faces of whoever has the gal to whine about Obama Indoctrination.

I feel like I'm forgetting something... Oh yeah! :MENDOZAAAAA: :facepalm: :scanners: :ohshi~: :gasp: :barf: :endit: :fukit:

FOX News blames major news outlets for not covering the Van Jones story enough.

Like any good troll, it's needling the tiny black line between hilarious and infuriating.  Mostly because they are pretty much admitting here that they are not a real news source and nobody gives a shit about their issues.

Your Modern Conservative Movement (in pictures)

There's a common thread that runs between each of these photos.  Can you guess what it is?

No doubt the protest was full of ethnic minorities, but they weren't shown in this photostream due to liberal bias.

I don't know. Maybe we can just give them blankets? Somehow that seems very fair.

Well, the first numbers for these protests are coming in and the DC fire department is putting it at 60,000-70,000. Which is rather terrifying for what started out as an astroturf campaign and conservative protests in general.

One wonders if our corporate overlords know what they're dealing with.

Were there any liberal counter-protests (man is that funny to say) planned at some point? With, like, actual socialists saying we're not going far enough? And less old white people.

I suppose Republicans could just say "both sides have their extremists" or something, but I doubt that will work very well where one side has "SAVE THE CHILDREN" vs. "GET YOUR OWN DAMN MONEY" as protest signs.

Heh... I liked one link I saw there: Jimmy Carter says what's on everyone's mind.

Also, I'd love to get the details on the last sentence of that article. :itsmagic:

During the Troubles, my friend's dad was approached by a newspaper photographer and offered £50 to start a riot.

How come you never see Democrats bussing in political staff to pose as grassroots protesters?

Because the party isn't led my insidious malcontents who seek that theocracy usurp the power structure from democracy, and will go to great lengths of treachery, lying, and manipulating to do so...?
