This week in conspiracy...abbvtd.

CBS sort of investigates current popular right-wing conspiracies. Brannon Howse also endorses the Cloward-Piven conspiracy, but only because he was born without a brainstem. There is a lot of other stuff going on there. They don't mention racism, which is absolutely behind the claims that Obama is a Muslim Kenyan Space Alien.

Does the drive to create a tellable narrative in news reporting sacrifice the uninteresting elements of chance and incompetency in how events play out? You bet your butt.

Who the fuck in Ethiopia gives a tiny, rock-solid turd about Wall Street and Social Security? I have no idea.

Shalomlife.com reports that Israeli Jews are now being accused of stealing Palestinian organs on the UN's web site. Well, sort of. It's submitted by an NGO. Apparently they have to put up everything, even goofy crap.

Was the youtube outage retaliation against Google from China? Nah.

Media Matters takes a trip down memory lane, reminiscing about violent right-wing rhetoric.

My favorite headline of the week: "Mason Lodges Open Doors to Reveal No Secrets."

My second favorite: "CIA Concludes Study of UFOs Futile--Who'd Trust Findings?"

A conspiracy theory about the Mumbai attack in mysterious and exotic India reveals more of the same shit.

You say, "potato," I say, "Fuck Fox News." From NewsHounds.

HOLY SHIT! SOMEONE AT THE HUFFPO GOT SOMETHING RIGHT ABOUT VACCINES!!!
