they’re all reasonably bright people, but in order to appeal to the extreme right-wing republican base they have to take their respective intellects behind the shed and do away with them.
just imagine you’re john mccain or mitt romney. you’re smart. you’re successful.
you’ve accomplished a lot. and then suddenly you have to pretend that you don’t believe in evolution. or global warming. or birth control. etc.
i wonder when someone in the gop will stand up and say, ‘this is nuts. how has the republican party become the party of people who believe that humans and dinosaurs co-existed?’
in other news, i do actually want to go to the wacky creationist museum.
i hear that they have dioramas of dinosaurs pulling plows for humans.
the good thing about the crazy creationists is that their collective delusions are really entertaining.
i mean, dinosaurs pulling plows?
really?
again, i don’t envy a smart republican candidate who has to pander to a base of republican who believe that dinosaurs and humans were pals.
