Quick! Take a look before it's gone! Right wing site Consevapedia--Patriot Act edited entry!

[Whoa_Nelly]

Bet this disappears/is edited soon! :rofl:

My son pointed me to this entry today. Apperently, someone did a GREAT! (Left wing) job on editing re: Patriot Act, because, as written right now, it is all very true :)


http://www.conservapedia.com/Patriot_act

Patriot act
The Patriot Act (formally, the `Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (USA PATRIOT ACT) Act of 2001') was an act passed by the Republican congress following the 2001 attacks on World Trade Center. It removed a certain number of liberties from American citizens, including such things as the right of habeas corpus and the requirement for a search warrent, since of course freedom might be used by terrorists against America, and hence freedom is the enemy of security.
Long ago patriots said things like "Give me liberty, or give me death", but today we say "take away my liberties, that's ok, patriotism means security not liberty."

1. Jeez, it looks just like Wikipedia

Is there a liberal version floating around?

[Cerridwen]

3. LOL

:rofl: :applause: :applause:

[LTR]

28. Try sourcewatch.com

http://www.sourcewatch.com

I like ours better. Daily Kos also has one. There's probably more.

All of these use a common Wiki software. Hell, there's even a Star Wars version (Wookiepedia) and one devoted to progressive talk radio (Thom Hartmann spearheads it, via liberaltalkradio.com.

2. Oh, lordy

I went to their index page. Under World History they have a category Ancient History (Creation-500 AD).

The link (loads slowly as does the rest of the site for me) and brings me to a page which lists terms used and then begins ancient history at 3500 BC.

Age of Metal

From Conservapedia

3500 B.C. began with copper tools, then 2500 B.C. superior bronze tools, then 1200 B.C. superior iron tools.

I don't think I need to say much more, do I?

[yardwork]

6. Wait. LOL! They're saying that copper led to bronze which led to iron?

LOL! And they've got time running backwards. Typically.

[Cerridwen]

8. I was amazed at the depth of the research and knowledge

on display.

*snork*

[Chulanowa]

20. Reads like a first-grade book report, doesn't it?

Ancient History
From Conservapedia
Jump to: navigation, search

Ancient History is all that happened from the beginning of time until AD 600. Ancient history created civilization and achieved many of the greatest intellectual breakthroughs of all time. Literature, drama, mathematics, philosophy, and language are just a few things which we are indebted to the ancients for.

[Cerridwen]

21. That's it! That's exactly what it sounds like.

I just couldn't think of the comparison. LOL

Thanks for putting it "in context" for me.


:hi:

4. That is funny. Thank you. Wonder how long it'll last?

probably not long, given the number of DU visitors recently.

10. Here's their entry for February 2

* February 2
o Did you know that faith is a uniquely Christian concept? Add to the explanation of what it means, and how it does not exist on other religions.

[Whoa_Nelly]

12. Commandment #5--As much as is possible, American spelling of words must be used.

So, if I use the phrase faux pas, does that mean I must spell it as good ol' 'Murikans would and write, "Foe Paw?

('cuz mah Paw ain't no foe o'nuthin' when it comes right on down to 'Murican beleafs and doctorinies! :mad:)

9. Look at the dinosaur entry...

http://www.conservapedia.com/Dinosaur

Most scientists believe that dinosaurs lived from 230 million until 65 million years ago and that they are all currently extinct (except for birds, which many scientists consider to be descended from early therapod dinosaurs). They claim the fossil evidence supports their beliefs. However, there are a number of lines of evidence that point to dinosaurs and man coexisting. <2> <3> For example, trained scientists have reported seeing a live dinosaur. <4>

references 2,3, and 4 link to www.answersingenesis.org

Oh, dear me.

[yardwork]

11. "Trained scientists have reported seeing a live dinosaur."

While dropping acid and looking out their back door.

[LTR]

29. ROFL!

:spray:

I was thinking they thought "Jurassic Park" was a documentary. Then again, I don't think these loons much care for anything coming out of evil librul Hollywood.

They do cite a few sources for 'proof' of man and dinosaur co-existing. Some obscure piece of 2nd century Egyptian art that depicts such. Well, lots of Egyptian art depicts dogs and cats walking upright and acting like people. Should that be included in an article somewhere?

[Tesha]

31. Those dinosaurs would be the editors at Conservapedia

> "Trained scientists have reported seeing a live dinosaur."

Those dinosaurs would be the editors at Conservapedia.

27. I saw a couple of live dinosaurs: alligators and sharks

But, alas, I've seen no T-Rex except for the kind that was fronted by Mark Bolen.

[Chulanowa]

39. Bzzzzt!

Charks are fish, and alligators are archosaurs, they are indeed NOT dinosaurs.

Your parakeet is, however.

[doublethink]

13. That's freaking classic .....

Rec 5. :rofl:

[wryter2000]

14. Someone do a screen capture!

I would if I were home, but I don't have software at work.

[krispos42]

36. Just do this...

press and hold 'Alt' while pressing 'prt sc'. That will copy the screenshot to the clipboard. After that, open up Microsoft Paint and hit 'paste' to insert the screenshot into Paint. Finally, save and close.

[TheBaldyMan]

41. you can use the 'history' tab at the top of the entry

it lets you review all the previous edits.

[yellerpup]

15. Delete

[ironflange]

16. No, it's still there

I notice it has been since Feb. 22. I think it takes them a long time to edit things, I figure Conservapedia will soon be overrun by trolls.

[yellerpup]

19. Thanks, you're right!

The first time I received a message that said the page had been moved. I can't believe they are series!

[doublethink]

17. Check out the History link at the top to some of the entries ..... too funny ....
