Well I'll be darned


Ever heard of these books? They're conservative brainwash material and garbage, one and all. I'm sorry, maybe that came off as a little bit harsh. Lets let them speak for themselves:

From the Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam:
The jihad continues today: Europe could be Islamic by the end of the twenty-first century

From the Politically Incorrect Guide to Global Warming and Environmentalism:
Horner (an attorney and senior fellow at the Competitive Enterprise Institute) reveals the full anti-American, anti-capitalist, and anti-human agenda of today’s environmentalists, dubbing them “green on the outside, red to the core.”

From the Politically Incorrect Guide to Darwinism and Intelligent Design:
Wells begins by explaining the basic tenets of Darwinism, and the evidence both for and against it. He reveals, for instance, that the fossil record, which according to Darwin should be teeming with “transitional” fossils showing the development of one species to the next, so far hasn’t produced a single incontestable example. On the other hand, certain well-documented aspects of the fossil record—such as the Cambrian explosion, in which innumerable new species suddenly appeared fully formed—directly contradict Darwin’s theory.
Wells then turns to the theory of intelligent design (ID), the idea that some features of the natural world, such as the internal machinery of cells, are too “irreducibly complex” to have resulted from unguided natural processes alone. In clear-cut layman’s language, he reveals the growing evidence for ID coming out of scientific specialties from microbiology to astrophysics.

From The Politically Incorrect Guide to Science:
Why embryonic stem cell research is snake oil medicine (which is why it needs government subsidies)

And of course many, many more. Not only politically incorrect, but incorrect in every other aspect as well. This series of books is from the same publisher that produced such "quality" reading as: The Truth About Muhammad and the ever classic Epidemic: How Teen Sex is Killing Our Kids.

From the same group that contains Regnery, Perseus Books, comes this painful tripe, Boys Adrift, which states that:

"More and more studies show that some of the most common video games may be discouraging boys from engaging in more traditional pursuits such as sports and sex."

So in retrospect, perhaps video games are a good idea after all? It seems that they distract boys from pursuing sex, which as teens could potentially give them any number of sexually transmitted diseases.

I'll leave you with this. Just know that conservative nutjobs are out there, and they're watching you.
