Ground control to Major Tom

Anybody who actually believes the bullshit in the headline in this piece by Laurence Lewis ("The GOP war on science should be the Democrat's greatest political weapon"), shouldn't be let near any Democratic campaign other than before the most uber-liberal of voting blocs.

Forty-six percent of Americans don't believe in evolution.  Half of all Americans in the most Christian nation on earth can't name the writers of the four gospels.  Twenty-five percent of all teachers in America believe that dinosaurs and humans co-existed.

This entire theme of somehow convincing the American voting public through reasoning and intelligence has been a loser for as long as I can remember.  And this doofus thinks, in a nation absolutely getting its clock cleaned in science by other industrialized nations, in a nation where we practically are begging children to go into scientific fields, that this is going to somehow, miraculously, garner the Democrats votes. 

Good fucking luck with that one.

Peace,
emaycee
