How the World Sees Us

…at least via our right wingnut crazies.

This hit my mailbox ALOT over the past few days, and I cringed every time I saw it: Middle East unrest according to Glenn Beck and friends. The Guardian rounds up a the crazy, the stupid and the dangerous of the Wingnut-o-Sphere, and you should go over there to see it all.

Watching the CRI Working Hard for Their Climate Change Denier Merit Badge

Required, apparently, for full participation in the Wingularity.

Again, via Tommywonk, we learn that CRI (and their Director of Center for Energy Competitiveness, David T. Stephenson) have been posting up their promised *discussions* of the so-called flawed foundations of Delaware’s Energy policy. There are three new missives today:

In Which We Find the CRI Making Stuff Up Again To Try To Scare People

Seriously — they are actually PAYING money for their bullshit. And the new bullshit is today’s amateurish hand-wringing about Delaware’s debt situation and how apparently this is supposed to be a sword of Damocles for state Democrats by the CRI’s resident economist.
