The latest conspiracy theory: Obama will seek a third term — MSNBC
President Obama’s first term brought no shortage of conspiracy theories, from birtherism to suggestions that the Affordable Care Act included death panels.
Here’s the latest bizarre theory: President Obama is secretly planning to run for a third term in office. Investment adviser and conservative Porter Stansberry says that President Obama will follow in the footsteps of Theodore Roosevelt, who ran for a non-consecutive third term in 1912, or Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who ran for a third consecutive term in 1940.

Over the past six months, Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver has really taken it on the chin in the PR department. And rightly so -- it was recently revealed that he signed off on more than $100,000 in taxpayer-funded hush money to help sweep allegations of sexual harassment against his former pal/alleged pervert Vito "Gropez" Lopez under the rug.

Fox News Guest Pushes Obama ‘Rape Camp’ Conspiracy - Truthdig
Conservatives have posited numerous theories as to why Mitt Romney lost the election, but one put forward by radio talk show rabble-rouser Michael Graham is probably the most ludicrous and absurd. During a Wednesday appearance on Fox News, Graham pushed his crazy conspiracy theory that Obama came out victorious because he scared female voters into thinking they would be “forced into rape camps” if Romney won.

US Internet attacks due to corrupt campaign laws – exclusive interview with Anonymous, part 2: Voice of Russia
A significant "random set" of the Anonymous collective shared their views on the US government’s constant control and censorship of information and the discrediting of alternative channels of information, as well as their opinion on the media, copyrights, and file sharing. They hacktivists claimed that ACTA, SOPA, PIPA and other attacks on freedom of expression, as it exists online, are the result of corrupt democratic processes. The Anonymous members polled gave the VOR some more details on Project Mayhem 2012 and TYLER and when asked about Russia gave a candid and surprising answer for a group that categorically does not get involved in poltics [sic].

With the presidential election a dead heat and many other races too close to call, hundreds of religious leaders nationwide are urging their congregations to vote for a specific candidate. They break the law when they do so — that's the point — but it's unclear whether there's any real penalty for pastors who make such endorsements from the pulpit.

Azov Films was based in Toronto, Canada, and specialized in selling barely-legal visual material mostly featuring boys participating in nudist gym and camp sports. The films were apparently produced in Eastern Europe. The legality of the material differed from country to country, but was widely believed to be well established in the major market, the U.S.A., which has historically tolerated depictions of underage nudity provided there is no sexual content.
