GLENN BECK AND THE RADICAL RIGHT
Now the rest of you don’t have to tell me what I’ve already written.
I hope it's okay to explain why it directly contradicts your thesis. If not, my apologies.

Maybe "I can't debunk it" meant "I don't have enough evidence to debunk it"? Which, however inexpertly expressed, would not be the same thing as "I think this is absolutely true and I endorse it wholeheartedly." And might explain the subsequent debunking, upon finding that evidence. I know it's a radical idea, just throwing out that possiblity.
If you think he shouldn't be addressing these sorts of urban legends, fine. But he's not endorsing them.

OLIVER WILLIS: IRRATIONAL CERTAINTY
Hell, that guy who shot up a church a few months ago pretty much used one of O’Reilly’s books as a bible.
Google Unabomber + Al Gore. If you're going to hold O'Reilly accountable for that, then presumably you hold Gore accountable for Kaczinski.

[Glenn Beck is] the one spouting off about supposed FEMA concentration camps, the black helicopters and those idiotic doomsday scenarios.
To debunk them. Yesterday he had on a guy from Popular Mechanics to debunk a conspiracy theory about a supposed "FEMA death camp" in Indiana, which is actually an Amtrak repair facility.
Now, if you want to argue that he shouldn't be addressing these urban legends, that's one thing. But to say he's promoting them is simply false.

"Then clearly you’ve got a problem with reading comprehension that goes far beyond me."
Not even the horizon goes far beyond you.

It's not really fair to call that the dumbest thing ever written by a blogger until we've gone through the rest of Oliver Willis's archives. Not that I'm expecting any volunteers.

9/11 TRUTHERS GUT PUNCHED BY HISTORY CHANNEL
911 was instigated, propagated, conspired, inspired, planned and executed by our renowned murdering leaders and the leaders from whom they take their queue.
Unless they're forming an actual line, I think you mean cue. Also, you are koo-koo-nutty.

IN DEFENSE OF FEMINISTS. . . OR AT LEAST THEIR BREASTS
I don't think there would've been a problem if she wasn't a beret and a stained blue dress away from being a dead ringer.

TBogg isn't antisemitic. Just anti-impulse control.
