Boing Boing starts a post with some interesting stats: Top ten most viewed pages on Wikipedia and Conservapedia:
But it seems the stats are screwed by click-bots. Ok. I can handle that.

If a politician receives a donation from a Neo-nazi (or from several), should that politician be expected to give the money back?

David Klinghoffer’s latest book, Why the Jews Rejected Jesus, makes for some good, challenging reading. It also made me cringe a couple of time. And through the middle, it made my skin crawl. Which is to say it’s a good book and, in short, I highly recommend it.

Danger, Will Robinson!
Despite what some might expect, I’m neither pleased nor amused in the least that Fred “God-Hates-Fags” Phelps has been fined for demonstrating at the funeral of a US soldier killed in Iraq.

The Khalil Gibran International Academy is NYC’s Arabic/English school. The Loud Right - including my best friends, the Catholic League - accuse the language of radicalisation. I listened to the NPR story this morning… it was appalling. All you need to say is “Not all Arabic Speakers are Muslim.” Use [...]
