So much for the idea that the Conservapedia guys are anything but Republican operatives, eh? And so much for the “Neutral Point of View” that Wikipedia uses. I mean, did the Encyclopedia Brittanica endorse Margaret Thatcher?
But actually, I went to Conservapedia, inspired by Xan, to see what the conservative definition of vagina is. Here it is:
So, no entry on vagina. (Perhaps one of our alert readers would like to try their hand?)
By contrast, the entry on abortion is, of course, huge, detailed, and as lunatic as one would expect. (“Overall, deaths from suicide, homicide and accidents were 248% higher after an abortion,” with a link to an abortion counselling service).
So, that’s your modern conservative movement all over.
Say, maybe if conservatives knew what a vagina was, their teenage girls wouldn’t keep getting pregnant at higher rates than the rest of us. (Source is indeed Kos but data cites to CDC.) But all is not lost: When they need facts and science, they can leave the wankosphere and check out Wikipedia.
And I wonder what Fred Thompson thinks of his newest supporters?
NOTE It’s really, really a pleasure—and a rather sophisticated one, at that—to use both Fred Thompson and vagina as Technorati tags for the same post. Just sayin’ ….

Right Wingers and Vagina
This SadlyNo post captures it all: (quoting wingnut blogger Ace of Spades)
ironic?
as I write, Nelly, in the background, is singing “it must be your ass cause it ain’t your face”.

Conservapedia is also a haven for plagiarists
Among others, Conservapedia articles on Bill of Rights, Clement Atlee, Edwin Meese III, Fox News, Great Depression, Morality (!), and Zach Johnson are largely or entirely plagiarized.
For most of those, pointers to the original sources and comparisons between the CP and original versions are available at http://www.rationalwiki.com/index.php?ti…
This plagiarism was committed by a Conservapedia Sysop and the site owner, Andrew Schlafly, has been made aware multiple times. So far, he has chosen to do almost nothing about it. (In one case, when contacted directly by a copyright holder, he added a note indicating two paragraphs had been copied.)
Yes, Santa Claus, there is a vagina
wow. I’ve read some impressive things on this wide web of ours, but this is REALLY impressive. Conservatives don’t know what a vagina is? Are they lousy in bed, too, because of this lack of knowledge? I’ve never been with one in a Biblical context to find out.
