The new issue of Skeptical Inquirer reprints Stephen Barrett’s “Analysis of Kevin Trudeau’s ‘Natural Cures’ Infomercial”. It’s like MST3K for skeptics. Stephen just wrote down most of the things I used to sit there yelling at Trudeau on 47 screens on Sunday mornings when I was working at Fox. Good times, those were. I thought [...]

Just got through listening to Bart Sibrel (remember that moan hoax fucktard that Buzz Aldrin punched?) vs. Phil Plait and Michael Shermer (as if there’s any contest) from yesterday’s Dave Glover Show on 97.1 FM St. Louis.

…NASA actually wants to wait for the dust to clear, and to have some time to analyze data before releasing results. You fucking loon! I am so satisfied. Look’s like Hoagland’s blog is starting out, at least, to be all that I hoped for. Regularly updated psychoceramics. A laugh and a half, on a more [...]

Bush’s Subliminal 9/11 Backdrop?, taken from Alex Jones’ Infowars mailing list: This one has even got me “creeped out.” I feel like I need new foil for my hat, but it just seems too clear to be a coincidence. Look at this picture of Jr.’s speech and tell me what you see: Then ask yourself, [...]
