Conservative Bloggers Believe Everything

3:32 pm EST October 7th, 2009 | News | 12 Comments

I await the expose on the Tooth Fairy Industrial Complex from these clowns any day now.

Far right sites have been spreading a post around today by blogger Anne Leary, who wrote that she ran into Obama acquaintance and 2008 election albatross Bill Ayers at an airport. Leary writes how Ayers, unprompted, unleashed a long-winded confession confirming one of the more absurd conspiracy theories floating around the fringes: that Ayers secretly authored Obama’s bestselling memoir, Dreams From My Father.’

I e-mailed Ayers to see if he could shed any light on the story. His response:

‘You’ve all lost your minds,’ he wrote. ‘Best of luck in the twilight zone.’

    This is one of the silliest memes in the wingnutosphere. The guy most actively promoting it is Jack Cashill at the hilariously misnamed “American Thinker” blog. I recently gave him a Worst Blogger Award for it.

    I heard Sarah Palin wrote Obama’s book. Don’t check it, just print it. :)

    As usual “conservative bloogers” means “more than one”, but often, less than 3

    I just read this, a few minutes ago.

    What cracks me up, is that there will now follow umpteen comments about how stupid/paranoid/gullible “conservatives” are because on or two of them believe that story.

    and the Bozo Award goes to… the Åyers ghostwriting theory! An idea without ANY sense at all to it… nor advantage to the believers… since Obama is now selling his agenda, not his books…

    Ayers was being a little unfair to the poor wingnuts. He does at least have an education and all, and one’s sarcasm detector is usually honed a bit with more book larnin’. He probably should have added “Malia Obama is also my secret love child with Michelle.”

    These same kind of wingnuts were claiming that Ted Sorenson wrote John F. Kennedy’s “Profiles in Courage” — even after he won a Pulitzer for it! As if the Harvard-educated President couldn’t write it himself. Fortunately, CBS was forced to issue an apology after they let that rubbish air. Imagine trying to fool not only the publisher and the public, but the Pulitzer committee as well! They don’t make tinfoil hats like they used to!

    George Bush, Jr. attended Yale for undergrad and Harvard Business School. Graduated from both. And he’s a fuckin’ idiot.

    It’s too easy to run circles around the mentally challenged wing-nuts. And by that I mean every single wing-nut.

    Why don’t you try it once , jaim, if you think it’s so easy. You’ve certainly never done it here.

    Don’t feel bad, though, neither has anybody else. Just witness this thread.

    Actually, upon further research it turns out that last year in his book “Counselor” Ted Sorenson admitted to writing most of Profile in Courage. My bad.

    This is one of the silliest memes in the wingnutosphere.

    But there are so many to choose from…! How can you ignore, “Barack Obama’s father was Malcolm X” in the wingnut silly meme rankings?
