The right’s pathologies do not seem to be abating. Here’s an another attempt at humor, from Townhall.com, a column titled, "How To Bomb A Gay Bathhouse":

Here’s what [Coulter] should do immediately:

1. Start a website called ‘Global War on Fags’ today.

2. Begin writing essays calling for the cleansing and purification of society via the mass murder of homosexuals.

3. Distribute videos on the website showing the actual murders of homosexuals.

4. Circulate instructions on how to bomb gay bath houses in San Francisco.

5. Circulate a ‘battle dispatch’ to give people specific information on America’s most notorious bath houses.

The punch-line follows. I’m not making this up. The column is the "second hottest" on the site. The guy is a professor at UNC-Wilmington. (Hat tip: Petrelis.)

Right-click by right-click by right-click. You can even turn him into poetry!

Gary Rosen helpfully pores over the arguments.

Whay aren’t humans still furry? One award-winning theory: stone-age moms were brutal.

Is Google helping?

More shellacking from the embarrassed right.

"My question is, if [Gonzales] fired the guy who fired us, why is he standing by the dismissals?" – John McKay, former U.S. attorney for Washington. (Hat tip: Josh.)

Who authorized General Pace to break Army regulations? The regulation in question, a vet emails me, is AR-670-1 (the regulation that applies to wear and appearance of the uniform), Section 1-10 (PDF):

"j. Wearing Army uniforms is prohibited in the following situations:

(1) In connection with the furtherance of any political or commercial interests, or when engaged in off-duty civilian employment.

(2) When participlating in public speeches, interviews, picket lines, marches, rallies, or public demonstrations, except as authorized by competent authority …"

So who was the competent authority?

The Onion has the goods.

You want the conservative id? Here’s the conservative id:

"Tomorrow you’re all gonna wake up in a brave new world. A world where the Constitution gets trampled by an army of terrorist clones created in a stem cell research lab run by homosexual doctors who sterilize their instruments over burning American flags. Where tax and spend Democrats take all your hard earned money and use it to buy electric cars for National Public Radio and teach evolution to illegal immigrants. Oh, and everybody’s high!"
