EVOLUTIONARY POLITICS

Why we should care what candidates think about biological evolution.

Ronald Bailey | January 8, 2008

Biological evolution became a hot topic in the presidential campaign last May when Republican presidential hopefuls were asked during a debate if “there was anybody on the stage that does not agree, believe in evolution?” Three held up their hands, Sen. Sam Brownback (Kan.), Rep. Tom Tancredo (Colo.) and former Gov. Mike Huckabee (Ark.). Evolution deniers Brownback and Tancredo have now dropped out of the race. So what do all the remaining candidates—Republican and Democratic—think about biological evolution? And does it matter?

AHH, SUCH A CUTE LITTLE JIHADIST

The lovely Michelle Malkin carried this story a month ago and I just now saw it.  I don’t know why I am still shocked by such things but I am.  I challenge any of you “blame America” nuts out there to defend this… c’mon,,, defend it…  TRMarchesano

ANOTHER MOVEON MOMENT OF INSANITY

As you all know I receive email updates from MoveOn dot org for a laugh.  Today I received one that should be good for a chuckle, unless of course you are a Global Warming Moonbat, then you won’t, and I don’t care.    TRMarchesano

Dear MoveOn member,
In the last year, the major TV networks asked the presidential candidates 2,679 questions. Pop quiz: How many were about global warming?
A) 514—after all, it’s one of the top issues facing the country
B) 165—as many as were asked about illegal immigration
C) 3—the same number asked about UFOs

STRANGE FACTS OF PAST PRESIDENTS pt8

BRIGHT, BUT BROKE

Is there anything Thomas Jefferson couldn’t do?  He was good at so many things – he was a brilliant political thinker, author of the Declaration of Independence, diplomat, architect, inventor, scientific farmer, musician, founder of the prestigious Univ. of Virginia, creator of the decimal system of coinage for the U.S., effective president, and one of the great figures in American history – but sadly, he was not good at managing money.  Jefferson enjoyed fine living and often outspent his income to support his lavish lifestyle.
