It was only a matter of time, I suppose, before the wingnuts tried to maliciously and deceitfully connect the Fort Hood shooter to the Obama White House. We just didn't expect it would take less than 24 hours. And of course the perpetrator is the reliably wrong conspiracy-meister Jerome Corsi , writing at WorldNetDaily : NEW YORK – Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, the alleged shooter in yesterday's massacre...
It has been let’s see, around 20 hours or something since the Ft. Hood massacre, so it was weird that someone who lives on the Internet hadn’t suggested a connection between Obama and alleged gunman Nidal Malik Hasan. So yes, quite sorry for the delay, but conspiracy theorist dilettante Jerome Corsi would like to do [...] Barack Obama - White House - Rahm Emanuel - Jerome Corsi - Huffington...
It's funny, but they still surprise me. WorldNetDaily falsely claimed that alleged Fort Hood shooter Nidal Hasan "advised Obama transition" in the headline of an article by Jerome Corsi highlighting his listing as a "participant" in a report for the Homeland Security Policy Institute (HSPI) at George Washington University's Presidential Transition Task Force. However, Corsi himself...
Nat Hentoff, a long-time columnist for the politically left Village Voice, has changed teams to work for World Net Daily, a blog on the far-right of the Republican side of things. For those unfamiliar with WND, it was the birthplace of the birthers and currently publishes regular columns by Chuck Norris, Tom Tancredo, Ann Coutler, Phyllis Schlafley, Pat Buchanan, John Stossel, Michael Savage, Jerome...
DOWNLOADS: (97) PLAYS: (127) Sean Hannity hosted not one but two whole segments last night devoted promoting the new book by Jerome Corsi -- godfather of the Swift-Boating of John Kerry -- titled America For Sale, which is basically an extended black-helicopter-style conspiracy tome straight out of the Patriot movement of the 1990s, updated for the new century. This is a classic case of conservatives...
Lou Dobbs has gone and done it again : On his radio show -- broadcast from the anti-immigration organization Federation for American Immigration Reform's "Hold Their Feet to the Fire" legislative advocacy event -- Lou Dobbs interviewed WorldNetDaily staff reporter Jerome Corsi, who Dobbs described as "a pretty good guy to talk to" about immigration issues. Corsi is a consistent...
DOWNLOADS: (7) PLAYS: (95) Back when I was first blogging in 2003 or so I had a few civilized exchanges with Jon Henke, but we never could agree regarding my ongoing thesis at Orcinus -- namely, that ideas, agendas, talking points, and memes in general regularly migrated from the extremist right in America into mainstream conservatism. (This, as it happens, is also the core thesis of my book The Eliminationists...
By: Patrick Haworth www.OKforHuckabee.blogspot.com Although this blog normally points to what others have to say about the issues of the day, occasionally one of us will opine or simply ask questions that the reading public is welcome to help us discover accurate answers for. Yesterday, Jerome Corsi, reported that a California Court has ... "tentatively scheduled a trial for Jan. 26, 2010, for...
Blogsite The Right Side Of Life has a complete rundown of yesterday's proceedings at the Ronald Reagan Federal Building in Santa Ana, CA, where Judge David O. Carter presided over a hearing to determine Obama's eligibility. "A California judge today tentatively scheduled a trial for Jan. 26, 2010, for a case that challenges Barack Obama’s eligibility to be president based on questions over...

WorldNetDaily has been up in arms about reporting critical of WND -- for instance, a report on "The Rachel Maddow Show" -- because WND was not given an opportunity by them to rebut the claims. This showed up on WND's front page over the weekend: Joseph Farah repeated it in his Sept. 9 column : Meanwhile, my colleagues in the news media are having a field day with the story of those attacking...
You can't stop Orly Taitz, you can only hope to contain her. Yes, the de facto leader of the Birthers is back -- and she's brought along a second forgery (visible above) that purports to be President Obama's real birth certificate, proving once and for all that he was born in Kenya and is ineligible to be president. As was also the case with the first forged birth certificate that Taitz tried, unsuccessfully...
Glenn Beck has been going after Van Jones, special adviser to the Obama Administration for Green Jobs, for a while now. Jones used to work at Color of Change, the organization whose boycott of Beck's show for calling the president a "racist" with a "deep - seated hatred for white people" has been steadily gaining momentum. Last night Beck dropped another much - hyped "bombshell"...
WorldNetDaily founder and editor Joseph Farah is responding to news of a conservative boycott against supporters of his "news" organization in the expected way -- by demonstrating why conservatives would want to boycott WND in the first place. In his Sept. 1 WND column , Farah dismisses the Next Right writer who proposed the boycott, Jon Henke, as "this fellow I have never known nor...
Fifty years ago, while he was in the process of founding modern conservatism, William F. Buckley Jr. decided it was important not to let just anyone into the movement's tent. Calling them a “menace” to the conservative movement, Buckley launched an attack on the John Birch Society, the paranoid far-right group that accused President Eisenhower, along with virtually everyone else in the...
