First we had Todd Akin (R) from Missouri saying that in cases of "Legitimate" rape women don't get pregnant because their bodies have ways of shutting that whole thing down. And now we have Paul Broun (R) Georgia, a high ranking member saying that evolution and the big bang theory are "lies straight from the pit of Hell."

"God's word is true. I've come to understand that. All that stuff I
was taught about evolution and embryology and the big bang theory, all
that is lies straight from the pit of Hell," said Broun, who is an MD.
"It's lies to try to keep me and all the folks who were taught that from
understanding that they need a savior."



He continued:



"You see, there are a lot of scientific data that I've found out as a
scientist that actually show that this is really a young Earth. I don't
believe that the earth's but about 9,000 years old. I believe it was
created in six days as we know them. That's what the Bible says."

Do we really want these kind of people running the House's Science committee?

    Sorry about being snippy, just a little tired of having this example being used to excuse others outrageous remarks when in fact he was speaking metaphorically.

    A spokesman for Johnson responded to the incident by saying the congressman is concerned the influx of military personnel will overwhelm the island's infrastructure and ecosystem. "The subtle humor of this obviously metaphorical reference to a ship capsizing illustrated my concern about the impact of the planned military buildup on this small tropical island," the statement said.

    At the peak of construction, Guam's population would increase by 79,000 people, or about 45 percent, the Washington Post reported. The Environmental Protection Agency has reportedly said the military buildup could trigger island-wide water shortages and overload sewage systems and other public utilities.

    These men know no more SCIENCE than they know about the world and how it runs. Maybe we should have tests for the politicians as well before they decide to run for an office in this Nation.

    People are entitled to their own opinions not their own facts. The Republican Right, particularly the Christian Right want to recreate reality to fit their pre-existing ideologies. If facts contradict their opinions then they dismiss, distort or dispute the facts. This is turning reality on its head

    Let's kick Reid out of the Senate for his pedophilia, stealing his last election, amassing millions of dollars while being a "public servant" his entire life!!!! He's an unrepentant, criminal, unethical, corrupt leech!

    Harry Reid has disgraced and defiled the reputation of the United States Senate and the office of Majority Leader. He demonstrates he has no shame and no integrity.

    Harry Reid is a pederast. He supports pederasty. He is a corrupt politician with ties to organized crime. He's a tax cheat.

    Harry Reid has been the beneficiary of tremendous real estate deals, deals too good to be true. Some of his fellow dealmakers have turned up in organized crime investigations. Reid is a staunch supporter of Las Vegas unions. Those unions were created and/or totally controlled by organized crime. Harry Reid is an associate and a member of organized crime!

    Reid had mob ties, protected mob interests in Las Vegas, and was tied to Chicago mobsters. Reid has been named in well-researched books on Chicago Organized crime’s stranglehold on Las Vegas, especially their corruption of Nevada politicians, bureaucrats, and unions.

    Why is Harry Reid continually bashing and lashing out at NV Energy, which serves 1.5 million customers and 40 million tourists in northern and southern Nevada over thei...

    Could it be his son represents the Chinese company NV refuses to do business with?

    Does something smell here? Is there the reek, stench, and decay of political corruption and hypocrisy surrounding the Capital?

    And he continued:
    "That’s what the Bible says. And what I’ve come to learn is that it’s the manufacturer’s handbook, is what I call it. It teaches us how to run our lives individually. How to run our families, how to run our churches. But it teaches us how to run all our public policy and everything in society. And that’s the reason, as your congressman, I hold the Holy Bible as being the major directions to me of how I vote in Washington, D.C., and I’ll continue to do that.”
    Before that, he was recounting his exploits as a big game trophy-hunter. Just throwing that in...........this guy is running for re-election in November; sigh.........
