Human stupidity?
Perhaps I'm just displaying some "conservative stupidity," here, but it seems to me like that most of these are just examples of human stupidity that happen to be practiced by liberals in these cases. Examples: Misunderstanding geology, drunk driving, sexual affairs, incorrectly operating a phone, getting facts wrong. People of all beliefs do these things. KingHanksley 15:47, 6 May 2011 (EDT)
The bit about the windfarms is incorrect. I'm English, please note Americans, I am not "British", and thus ought to know. Will remove

The page is locked, so we need an administrator to implement these:
- Democrat should be capitalized in the item about Gary Condit.
- In 2011, liberal Democrats voted for sequestration with the belief that it would be so intolerable that conservative budget-cutters would never allow it to take effect. Again, in the December 2012 budget deal, President Obama and liberal Democrats did not agree to other spending cuts sought by conservatives because they could not believe that conservatives would allow sequestration take effect, although the deal postponed sequestration for two months. Sequestration has now been in effect since March 2013.
- Each year the Wikimedia Foundation conducts a fundraising drive to keep the webservers working on that popular liberal website. They claim the donations go to "Servers, bandwidth, maintenance, development."[1] Yet, in the period July - December 2012, the WMF took in $30.9 million but spent only $1.3 million on internet hosting.[2]
- On June 11, 2007, Senator Larry Craig was arrested at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport in a sting operation aimed to entrap homosexuals.[3]. He then plead guilty using a mail-in form hoping to avoid public scrutiny. At an August 28, 2007 press conference, Craig attempted to back away from his admission of guilt. A judge denied his effort to withdraw his guilty plea.
