Proofiness: Why I Love Reading a Variety of Stuff Online

I love reading stuff from a wide variety of sources online because, if nothing else, it often makes me laugh.  Today's example from a conservative blog:

We maintain that Global Warming is the greatest hoax ever played other than the hoax of Obama’s constitutional eligibility to be president of the United States.

Hey, everyone's entitled to their opinions, even if they fly in the face of the preponderance of evidence. Seth Godin calls it "proofiness" and I think I'm going to be using that term a lot to describe some of the stuff I come across in my online travels.

    If Obama really wasn’t eligible to be prez, wouldn’t someone in John McCain’s camp (it has a lot of people, and people who are willing to do anything to win) have found it out and have been shouting from day one? The irony is that John McCain was actually not born in America, for real! He wasn’t born in the 50 states, but on a military base in the panama canal zone. afaik, military bases are equivalent to the 50 states. What percentage of Obama ‘birthers’ know where McCain was born?

    I also like it when we have abnormally cold temperatures and big snowstorms and people use that as evidence against global warming.  Makes you wonder what theyre saying when we have a record breaking number of days over 90 like we had this summer.
