Stupidity Unleashed

From the eminently serious students of our nation's condition at Town Hall, comes this piece, which I believe I am quite justified in regarding as a monument of wingnut stupidity (in a very tough league for that sort of thing.)

"John Lennon made pact with Satan, says new book
Author contends 'Paul is dead' clues were about McCartney's band mate"

After all,

"
If John had entered into a 20-year pact with the Devil for wealth and world fame, that contract ended on December 8, 1980, with his violent death," said Niezgoda. "Counting back 20 years, did anything unusual in Beatles history occur in December 1960?"

In fact, it did, Niezgoda recalls. On Dec. 27, 1960, the Beatles played the Town Hall Ball Room in Litherland, England."

Oh, Litherland, England. Now it's all starting to make sense. But wait, there's more. As a child,

"He was thrown out of religious chorus for substituting obscene words in hymns."

And most damning of all ("damning," get it...)

"(Lennon murderer Mark David) Chapman said that as the last demon left his body he was given the reason for his possession," Niezgoda told WND. "It was to make a show of Satan's great power in the world using John Lennon's murder as the vehicle."

Well, I guess that clinches it. After all, who could possibly know more about John Lennon's pact with Satan, that Mark David Chapman?

You know, the amount of stupidity in the right wing blogosphere is just too great to be directed only at Democrats. They are reaching into the stratosphere of dumbness, where the thin air really helps with this kind of thinking.
