“Mondo Joe” at DU came up with the following little gem of a screenshot from Conservadepia, which bills itself as “An encyclopaedia with articles written from a conservative viewpoint” or “The Trustworthy Encyclopedia”…
Hilarious enough on its own. But not one to run something without checking it first, we stopped by the statistics page ourselves last night just to verify it. And while it looks like the “Most viewed pages” have changed slightly, the latest batch of Wingnut faves, as seen in the screenshot below, is no less telling…
UPDATE: Looks like this observation of the amusing obsessions of Conservapedia denizens (albeit, sans the new Hitler addition) has made it’s way around the ‘sphere at various times over the past several months. The earliest found example, so far (hat-tip RAW STORY’s Ron Brynaert) seems to be Andrew Sullivan’s coverage last November. None of which makes any of it less amusing, of course. 🙂
Adolf Hitler? What is wrong with these people? What a bunch of homophobic freaks, also. Sheesh. I at least hope that they were looking for negative things about him.
Strangely, the page on Hitler doesn’t use the word “conservative” once. I’m sure not discussing his political views is just an oversight.
a-holes pre-occupied with a-holes ,where’s your beef ?
“Springtime…for Hitler…”
LMAO Mick…Sounds like Rachel Maddow is going to host Countdown Friday
You misspelled “conservapedia”. Not tryin’ ta be a party-pooper or nuthin’…
Oh, no! I turned into Agent 99!!! GODDAMMIT!!!
This would explain all the closet-homosexuals in the Republican Party. If you ad up all the “homo-hits”, it totals more hits than the actual main page! “Thou dost protest too loudly!”
Damn you, Big Dan! I’m the spelling goddess! 😛

Did anyone notice that, of the most viewed pages from the earlier statistical survey, at least 5 of the pages (2. thru 6.) had larger numbers of hits than the pages that replaced them in the later survey and that at least two others from the earlier survey should likely have surpassed the total number of hits that some of the most viewed pages in the later survey had received in the interval between the two surveys. What gives? Does the survey only represent a given period of time then start over? Still, almost all of the pages that replaced them were still related to the topic of homosexuality. It is also interesting to note that while the number of “Main Page” hits increased by 567,832 from the earlier to the later survey, the number of hits for the 2nd most viewed page, “Homosexuality”, increased by 874,284 ?!?! What’s that all about? Are the viewers bookmarking the “Homosexuality” page and just bypassing the “Main Page”?
LoL! … like piglets feeding at the trough of selfrighteousness. Hmmm…
Did search, ironically there’s nothing about “closet homosexual”… a new page needs some creating…
@Steve – it is possible those pages were merged with the main “homosexual” page and thus no longer exist in the wiki database as distinct pages, and therefore would not have seperate statistics any longer.
The point is fundamentalist Christian Republicans are titillated by homosexuality because they live in the closet.
Lespool # 15, EXACTLY… like that ted-whats-his butt-preacher! A bunch of literal closet dick heads “subcoming to the temptation” of their natural inclination. You know, the all consuming psychodramma. I have nothing against gay people. I think its sad that a human mental construct such as these “religions” are today, have taken away people’s inner peace, and breed fear and hate.
. . . JUST HOW BIG IS IT ?
Is the prime question pondered be the conservative
intellectualelite nowIncreasingly it looks like the in-the-closet vanguard of the Log Cabin Club Republicans are in the party’s drivers seat. Take look at the folks aorund John McCain. And take a look at all those recent stories – from murder in Florida, to Patrick McHenry (NC), to repubs caught cruising, to the unfortunate Republican county commissioner Barclay who apparently made 500 films of himself playing with male escorts. Given that most of these guys are chickenhawks, you got yourself a yuppy version of Ernest Roehm’s brown shirts. That’s where Adolph and anal come together.
