Is this guy crazy, or just, insane ?

"Over at RedState, ground zero for lunatic conspiracy theories, Red State Trike Force Commando Neil Stevens
has used all his mad Internet skillz to expose the liberal perfidy of Google. In this case, Commando Stevens has discovered that Teh Gazoogle has wickedly altered its drop-down search suggestions to omit any reference to Climate Gate.
This, of course, means that thousands, no, millions of right-wingers, who are apparently too stupid to search for something unless it appears in the drop-down list, will never hear of Climate Gate and will never suspect that global warming is a hoax concocted by Al Gore to further his goal of Marxist domination of the planet.
Neil’s shocking exposé of Google’s leftist machinations starts with an equally shocking revelation:
This may come as a shock, but I don’t use the Google search service.
No shit, Neil? We never would have guessed.
Notwithstanding Neil’s boycott of Google, he is apparently still willing to use the nefarious search engine in order to sleuth out evidence of Google’s Marxist tendencies:
But Google wants us to believe nobody is searching for Climategate despite it being such a big story, but I have evidence that it’s merely a coverup for political purposes.
My evidence is in the behavior of the feature itself. Watch what happens if you type in Climatega, nearly typing in the entire word Climategate:

Nope. No “Climate Gate” there. So Stevens, reaching deep into his bag of Internet tricks, tries to see what would happen if he types in “climateg” instead of “climatega.” Sadly, he still doesn’t have his Holy Grail in Google’s drop-down suggestions. Stevens then tries entering “climate” in the search box. And, woot, there it is! Right there in in the drop-down box.

This might cause a lesser wingnut to conclude that there is no plot by Google to deep-six “Climate Gate” or banish it from its drop-down suggestions. After all, the search engine suggests “Climate Gate” when “climate” is typed into the search box. And since most people don’t type backwards it’s really not that important that it doesn’t include the suggestion for “climateg” or “climatega.” Any poor conservatives that are hopelessly dependent on Google’s drop-down box will receive the needed suggestion long before they even type in “climateg” or “climatega.” And if any conservatives do wind up typing in “climatega,” my guess is that least half of them will know how to finish typing the word “Climate Gate” without any further help from Google.
But Neil is not to be deterred. The very appearance of the “Climate Gate” drop-down suggestion is, in fact, proof of the conspiracy to eliminate that suggestion. This may well be the ultimate apotheosis of the wingnut riposte that “this is central to my point.”
Well what do we have here? Climate gate scandal. Oops. They erased climategate but didn’t erase climate gate. Somebody did an incomplete job of sending the story down the memory hole. Too bad, so sad. You are exposed, Google. People are trying to get to the truth, but Google is actively trying to hide that fact.
To make matters even worse or, rather, even more central to Stevens’s point, “Climate Gate” first pops up when you type “cli” into the Google news search box.

So, at worst, all Google can really be accused of is refusing to put “climate gate scandal proves that the Earth is getting cooler and that Al Gore is a big fat lying manbearpig” in the drop-down box whenever anyone simply types a “c” into the search box.
Oh, and look what happened when I typed “why is” into Google:

I am sure that our comment section will soon have answers to all those questions."

I just had surgery for two aneurysms, I gotta quit reading this stuff.
Aneurysms are no laughing matter.
This is why we can't have nice things.
Hi Tuffy, nice to meet you ! Believe me, I know aneurysms are nothing to laugh about, I just had two aneurysms coiled a little over a month ago. Now I'm waiting to see what the neuro-radiologist says needs to be done about the two AV malformations associated with them.
I don't know what I'd do without google. I love it so.
Hello Tuffy!
Welcome, tawnlynn!
Cloony The Clown by Shel Silverstein
I'll tell you the story of Cloony the Clown
Who worked in a circus that came through town.
His shoes were too big and his hat was too small,
But he just wasn't, just wasn't funny at all.
He had a trombone to play loud silly tunes,
He had a green dog and a thousand balloons.
He was floppy and sloppy and skinny and tall,
But he just wasn't, just wasn't funny at all.
And every time he did a trick,
Everyone felt a little sick.
And every time he told a joke,
Folks sighed as if their hearts were broke.
And every time he lost a shoe,
Everyone looked awfully blue.
And every time he stood on his head,
Everyone screamed, "Go back to bed!"
And every time he made a leap,
Everybody fell asleep.
And every time he ate his tie,
Everyone began to cry.
And Cloony could not make any money
Simply because he was not funny.
One day he said, "I'll tell this town
How it feels to be an unfunny clown."
And he told them all why he looked so sad,
And he told them all why he felt so bad.
He told of Pain and Rain and Cold,
He told of Darkness in his soul,
And after he finished his tale of woe,
Did everyone cry? Oh no, no, no,
They laughed until they shook the trees
With "Hah-Hah-Hahs" and "Hee-Hee-Hees."
They laughed with howls and yowls and shrieks,
They laughed all day, they laughed all week,
They laughed until they had a fit,
They laughed until their jackets split.
The laughter spread for miles around
To every city, every town,
Over mountains, 'cross the sea,
From Saint Tropez to Mun San Nee.
And soon the whole world rang with laughter,
Lasting till forever after,
While Cloony stood in the circus tent,
With his head drooped low and his shoulders bent.
And he said,"THAT IS NOT WHAT I MEANT -
I'M FUNNY JUST BY ACCIDENT."
And while the world laughed outside.
Cloony the Clown sat down and cried.

That's all the better with my new sig. ^^^
Hilrious!

The wingnuts probably hate Google because Rupert Murdoch thinks Google News is stealing money away from foxnews.com and the WSJ by publishing their stories. He could easily stop Google from doing so by having the websites tell Google not to index them, but they'd lose a shitload of money. It's rather bizarre b/c Murdoch seems to want the website hits provided by Google search but won't accept the fact that it comes at the cost of having Google News display the stories. He's trying to ink a deal with Microsoft to get around Google, but it probably won't work.
