‘Shorter’ concept created by Daniel Davies and perfected by Elton Beard.
Warning: Do not click the link unless you’re prepared for a long and wackily desperate post that argues with keyboard-poundy earnestness that Mr. Yankee is proven right about every detail of the Beauchamp affair despite the desperate attempts of treasonous liars to spin the truth.
No really, I’m warning you. The next post you see over there might look like this.
Update: If anyone brave enough to read the post has missed the earlier installments in this drama, it’s important to keep in mind that Mr. Yankee is capable of trying to ‘debunk’ the existence of the sun.
Standard techniques include cherry-picking of evidence and wild speculation presented as fact, although when he gets this far down a blind alley, he’s liable to try just any old thing. Beware! Beware!

Silly Gavin, the sun doesn’t exist. Every day I see it rise above the surface of the earth in the east in the morning and sink below it in the west in the evening. Yet scientists claim that the Sun (if that is its real name) is millions of times bigger than our planet. How can these two things coincide? They can’t!
UPDATE: After my numerous protests to NASA about the purported existence of the sun, they have declined to comment even though it’s clear from NASA Whirlwind that they have at least aimed a satellite in my general direction recently.

Those determined to distort the facts about this so-called ’sun’ have no explanation for the moon.
Laughably, they claim the moon orbits the Earth even while maintaining that the so-called ’sun’ — which oh-so-conveniently goes somewhere whenever the moon is around — is in some kind of bizarre negative non-orbit around the Earth. How can there be the opposite of an orbit?
If they can’t even make up their minds about the definition of the word, ‘orbit,’ then how can we trust their word about anything? Let alone a so-called giant ball of fire that supposedly burns in outer space, where there’s no oxygen.

Look, I took a remedial science class when I was trying to get my G.E.D. I remember the teacher explaining that the so-called Sun allegedly was akin to a gigantic H-Bomb, much like those used by our patriotic troops. Yet over at LGF they have done some interesting research in comparing photos like this with those of the purported “Sun.”
Notice something striking about the two distinct photos. One (the one that is apparently some photoshoped artist’s conception of the assumed Sun) is a gigantic ball of fire, but the other one, the H-bomb that the supposed Sun is apparently based upon is distinctly Mushroom shaped. LGF is all over this, demanding a retraction from the University of Texas and wondering if the Texas Legislature is aware that our tax dollars are going towards such obvious forgeries.

The mooninite angle is a good one and brings up this interesting tidbit:
But the late 1960s and early 1970s was also the alleged time when NASA visited the “Moon” repeatedly. NASA openly bragged about bringing back large amounts of surface samples from the poorly named Apollo mission (ed note: Didn’t he fight Rocky??? Comments explaining this discrepancy would be helpful)Yet the government had to increase quotas for cheese despite the apparent new availability of cheap imports from the Moon. Unless this so-called moon didn’t exist, which would mean that such shortages were easily explainable.

Y’know, I was thinking. Why do we even care about these clowns anymore?
I mean, a few years ago, they were speaking for, or at least in support of, a political party that held all the levers of power, had just won a presidential election and had tremendous power available to it, and was spoken of in the press in nothing less than glowing terms. So when they said something foul, evil, bigoted, or just simply stupid, it was incumbent upon us to challenge them, on the premise, and on the merits.
But now? They are the fringe of the fringe, the most ideologically committed members of the 28% club. And even many of the 28 percenters would disavow a great deal of the more batshit narratives provided by these pundits and bloggers. If many of us stopped reacting to the nuttiness in a predictable pavlovian fashion, they’d still bellow their buckets full of stupid into the uncaring void, but who would know?
If a right-wing authoritarian wingnut blogger bloviated in a forest and nobody was around to hear ‘em, would they make any noise?
Or would powerline link to them, LGStoopid would link to powerline and drudge would link to LGStoopid, who would link to drudge and one portion of the internet would melt. And nobody would notice.
Just a thought…

Unlike so many of the left-wing moonbats who yammer incessantly but accomplish nothing, right leaning blogs use FACTS on the ground to back up our position. Let’s look at the latest left-wing media propaganda purporting to show evidence of the existence of the “sun”:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNZwrgFo3GE
A careful analysis of this video shows that the alleged “sun” produces enough heat to melt metal. I scientifically tested this thesis by arranging various pieces of metal in my back yard including: copper wiring, stainless steel silverware and a cast iron pot. They were placed under direct sunlight for over 4 hours. The results: NOT A SINGLE ONE MELTED!!! How can the left wing media claim that the sun produces that high of a temperature when I now have indisputable proof that the “sun” produces nowhere near that degree of heat?
In addition I have word via Jeff Gannon that a representative from the Church of Scientology has verified that there is no and never has been a “sun”, rather the orb you see in the sky is a holographic projection placed there several million years ago by a race of hyper-advanced squid. The irony is even with proof directly from the horse’s mouth the moonbats will cling to their ridiculous beliefs, they will continue to hypocritically attack Jeff Gannon because of their loathing of homosexuals.
We are asking for donations so Malkin and Ace of Spades may take a trip to the “sun” and acquire actual video evidence of its non-existence.

HAH! I made a scale model of the Solar System once in grade school, and oddly enough, the “Sun” WASN’T HOT. Neither NASA nor The National Solar Observatory have responded to emails concerning the idea that the Sun is actually more like one of those glow-sticks than the “hot” “ball of fire” that the MSM would have you believe.
Oh, and my model Sun exhibited NO “gravatational” effects whatsoever. So much for that crazy idea that the planets “orbit” it.
I’m working with scale models of the Saturn V rocket at the moment; all the ones I’ve thrown firecrackers underneath have blown up instead of taking off like in those (obviously FAKED) films. Boeing and McDonnell-Douglas will be contacted with this evidence shortly. Fake the Moon landings, will they?

Creeping Solarfascism is taking over this country by stealth, and all you can do is concoct lamebrained denials. If you all love the Sun so much, why don’t you ask the people of Mercury how great it is to live under Solarfascism’s iron fist? Liberals are all alike.

I’ve seen no evidence of snow on any mountain. In fact, some well-known proponents of the presence of snow on mountain tops recently went on a trip to a mountain, sponsored by the No Snow On Mountains Freedom Association. They came back changed men, declaring that there is in fact no snow on mountains. They even published their findings in the New York Times, a publication famous for promoting the pro-snow agenda, thus proving that the sun’s heat is projected ONLY on the tops of mountains, thereby further making global warming a hippy-induced fraud.
