In reply to the discussion: Conservative Activist Advises GOP: Ignore Hispanics, Go For White Voters Instead. [View all]Fortinbras Armstrong
(4,477 posts)73. Conservapedia is largely fact-free as well
I will always treasure the initial iteration of the article on Florence, Italy:
Florence is a medieval city of the Medicis on the River Ebro in the Italian region of Tucsony. It is known for David's statue, the baptistery and the Dome.
For those of you who have a geography deficit, the Ebro is in Spain, Florence is on the Arno. Tucsony is obviously in Arizony. "Dome" is, I suspect, a typo for Duomo, Italian for "cathedral".
Here is the Conservapedia definition of "liberal":
A liberal is someone who favors censorship of Christianity plus increased government spending and power, as in ObamaCare. Increasingly liberals side with the homosexual agenda, including same-sex marriage. Many liberals favor a welfare state where people receive endless entitlements without working. Liberals are often anti-Christian, or otherwise disagree with moral or social principles held by many American Christians. The liberal ideology has worsened over the years and degenerated into economically delusional views and intolerant ideology. Some liberals simply support, in knee-jerk fashion, the opposite of conservative principles without having any meaningful values of their own.
I would just point out the intolerance of Conservapedia. I can say from personal experience that they will block any contributor who does not toe the party line.
In furtherance of its intolerance, it has articles on such topics as Liberalism and Bestiality. There is an article Evolutionists who have had problems with being overweight and/or obese, which is simply impossible to parody.
There is an unfathomable bias in Conservapedia against the Theory of Relativity, with claims that physics has been corrupted by liberal influences. Apparently, Schlafly confuses relativity in physics with moral relativity. Schlafly believes that the mathematical method of proof by contradiction is somehow flawed. Schlafly is young earth creationist.
Schlafly has some material for home schooling. I pity any student educated by this man.

OP
Boehner and McConnell have problems that have nothing to do with dealing with the Democrats.

We can only hope they double down on this strategy and follow her advice before the 2014 elections.
