Right-wing religious nutcase Bryan Fischer says that Bill Clinton is responsible for increases in oral cancer due to the HPV virus. Fischer blames Clinton for making oral sex popular when he was in the White House.

In their minds, the constant onslaught of Christmas imagery, programming and commercials during the months of November and December is simply not good enough; the salutation of “Happy Holidays” is a slap in the face to their sweet Baby Jesus and an insult to their religion, because, according to them, it’s their world, we’re just living in it.
