tell me it's an Onion article. If not, the right is way more unhinged than I thought.

Can I send the link to my fox"news" non-watching, but frequently quoting, right-wing conservative friend? He will agree with redstate's "fact-checkers are biased" position; but I'm gonna love arguing, "shoot the messager, rather than disprove the facts."
