Yes, but no insurance plan covers it.

That's because it's too experimental. It involves showing people Glenn Beck clips, followed by a response from someone who isn't mentally ill. The juxtaposition of extreme insanity and extreme sanity leads to an outcome where about 25% of patients leave with their heads removed, 25% leave with their heads jammed in even further, and the other 50% find a way to stab themselves to death with the remote for the TV just so they don't have to deal with the pain anymore.

It's just too risky and too experimental to bother funding.
Cool shit here, also here.

A lot more then you'd like to believe, that's for sure. Hey, at least they have "faith" that the Lord can pray the fat away.

Conservapedia: If FOXNews set up a wiki
Crimes committed by Muslims will be a pan-Islamic plot and proof of Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of loners who do not represent their belief system at all.
The probability of one's participation in homosexual acts is directly proportional to one's public disdain and disgust for homosexuals.
If a political figure makes an accusation of wrongdoing without evidence, odds are probable that the accuser or an associate thereof has in fact committed the very same act, possibly to a worse degree.

What's sad is that I'm sure that in some point in time conservatives actually had some valid points. Nowadays, however, I don't even see how they can say these things that they say with a straight face. :meh:

To be honest, I am not sure either. They have to be andriods in order for them to say the crap they say on TV.

This is why I stopped watching the Sunday morning interview shows. It was the parade of conservative talking heads, week after week, lying through their damned teeth.

Because conservatives are never evil. If they appear to be it's because the perp wasn't conservative and liberals are being dishonest liars to present them as such or because the act wasn't evil and liberal media bias has distorted your opinion of the act.

I don't know what it was about this, but it just sickened me. The rest of their bullshit I can laugh about as it's inflated right-wing pap and hard to take seriously, but the fact that they can take a tragedy like this and manipulate it is just disgusting

Well, I'm British so (thankfully) I don't run into American conservatism much, and I only recently discovered Conservapedia. So this kind of took me by surprise somewhat
