Via ABC News: “I’m basically a libertarian, and I’m a conservative on economic matters, and I’m a social liberal,” Koch told ABC News’ Barbara Walters during an interview for her special “The 10 Most Fascinating People of 2014″ that aired at 9 p.m. ET Sunday on ABC. Koch, who supports abortion rights and gay marriage, said he isn’t concerned with …

“I turned to the president and I said, something to the effect of, ‘Mr. President, you need to bomb the Iranian nuclear facilities, because if you don’t, Iran will have a nuclear weapon on your watch and the course of world history will change.’ And he got his condescending smile on his face and laughed at me and said, ‘Well …

“Hang the lying Kenyan traitor! There’s plenty of trees in this [White House] front yard. He wouldn’t be the first one hanging from one of these trees. Snap his neck and watch him choke to death.”

The above Twitter account is by teabagger Jim Hoft, the douchebag who published a photoshopped x-ray with a claim that it showed the “fractured orbital socket” suffered by Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson. Hoft, not incidentally, is the target of the best Google-bomb since Santorum.

The Drudge Report was offline for a few hours this morning and conspiracy theories immediately launched across Teabagistan. From the Moonie Times: The Drudge Report and the conservative news site WND.com were both down early Tuesday morning for at least two hours — a curious coincidence that came amid the FBI’s warning of a widespread malicious software attack that began …

Rep. Michele Bachmann has posted a Buzzfeed list titled “16 Things I’ll Miss About Being In Congress.” Fourth on her list is “Speech Prep With My Staff.” For some reason, speech prep includes rapping a snippet from Macklemore’s Thrift Shop, last year’s top selling US single.
