- Water is being poisoned to make frogs gay
- Anthony Scalia was murdered
- Ted Cruz's father killed JFK
- Millions of illegals voted in the presidential election

And now, add this to the list: almost 3,000 people didn't die in Puerto Rico caused by the hurricanes last year.

Now, if a right-winger believes in the uranium or the emails stuff, I'd chalk it up to being very uninformed; but not completely crazy. But the stuff listed above... are crazy. A person has to be utterly insane to think those are even remotely possible. I know not all right-wingers believe them; but many, and probably most, actually do. And that, my friends, is what is defining that party.

.
I don't believe any of those things...

The base of the republican party denies climate change data from actual climatologists, but believes pizzagate.

I think the majority of folks understand there's a warming climate. The evidence is undeniable. The reasons for the change in climate are in my opinion what's at debate. I feel that it's a combination of reasons, greenhouse gasses being a potential possibility, but I also feel that once every epoch, our Earth wobbles closer to the sun in it's orbit, and no greenhouse gas reduction is going to stop the planet from getting hotter until we are further away from the sun.

You don’t think actual climatologists didn’t think of that? The atmosphere is changing because we are changing it. It’s not a hard concept to grasp.

That’s actually something that would be very easy to measure. If we were closer to the sun, the length of the year would actually shorten. Because we would be able to revolve around the sun in less time than we do now.

A conservative might not be as bad as an SJW liberal mother-in-law.

When did the left believing that Having Unwavering Believe In Ridiculous Lies Become a Conservative Thing? become a leftist thing?

Never mind, the left have always been judgmental and closed minded concerning conservatives.

Carry on with your conspiracy theories.

Obama is a closet Muslim that should be deported to Kenya.

Oh man, these people are over the freaking top. Good post.
The same Alex Jones who is quoted here frequently as gospel. Google "Fish People" when you get the chance. It's another of his classics.
