Right-wingers fall for bogus report that Saudis warned America in writing about elder Tsarnaev brother
Charles Johnson has the STORY:
Every single right wing blogger on the Innernets is freaking out today. Yes, again.
Would you believe they’re all falling for yet another unsourced story from UK tabloid The Daily Mail, claiming that Saudi Arabia sent a letter warning about the elder Tsarnaev brother in 2012? Universally falling for it, despite the fact that the Daily Fail’s coverage of the Boston bombings has been absolutely horrible, and ridiculously full of falsehoods?
Well, of course they are! Because they see it as an opportunity to attack the Obama administration again, and they have no credibility …

Raving kooks of the political right wildly distort Obama’s simple statement of fact
Charles Johnson NAILS IT:
The deranged right wing blogosphere is at it again, going bat[bleep] crazy over a completely uncontroversial statement by President Obama.
Speaking in Denver, the President made the following statement about gun control, pointing out that the US government is prevented from confiscating guns by our Constitution…
“You hear some of these quotes: ‘I need a gun to protect myself from the government.’ ‘We can’t do background checks because the government is going to come take my guns away,’ Obama said. “Well, the government is us. These officials are elected by you. They are elected by

As usual, our tour guide is the incomparable Roy Edroso.
This time, for your convenience, our excerpt from Roy’s Village Voice column includes his links to nutty stuff from the wingnut netherworld:
Last week the Supreme Court heard a couple of gay marriage cases and, with so many politicians and even some conservatives running to grab the rainbow flag, it seemed as if a corner on the contentious issue had been turned.
How went the rightbloggers? Most continued to — paraphrasing Buckley — stand athwart history, crying “Please be gentle!” But others tried to accommodate their new gay-married overlords in …

A conservative blog post that’s worth your while
Every once in a while, I go slumming in the right-wing blogosphere just to see what the folks in that netherworld are up to.
Today, I came upon an interesting post by Allahpundit, a 42-year-old anonymous blogger for the Web site Hot Air. Allah has plied his trade at several sites over the years, and some knuckledraggers have found him insufficiently nutty for their tastes.
THIS PIECE is probably a good example of what bugs the hard-core wingnuts about the guy, but I rather liked it. Be sure to check out the comments at the end….

How would the right-wing noise machine react if a porn star endorsed Obama?
It doesn’t really matter to me if a porn star (above) endorses Mitt Romney for president (HERE) — except in one respect: I can barely imagine the extent to which Fox News Channel and the wingnut wing of the Internet political circus would explode with delight (disguised as moral outrage) if the nod from this actress (?) had gone to Barack Obama.
The folks on the Religious Right would be especially vocal. Before long, they would suggest that the porny woman was bearing Obama’s love child.
As for the endorsement of the Mittster, no problem. More power to him….
