Mccain-Palin are the most ignorant ANTI-SCIENCE candidates ever

[redstate_democrat]

As evidenced by Palin's dismissal of climate change and the science which explains it and McCain's dismissal of Chicago's Planetarium as "foolish".

These ignoramuses are nothing more than bottom of the barrel anti-education hicks, despite the amount of money they have.

1. Speaking of that.....

have there been any questions in any of these so-called "debates" on science issues?

[redstate_democrat]

4. No. There hasn't been much discussion on anything outside of the bailout, taxes, Iraq, afghanistan

and Pakistan. There has been minimal discussion on health care, energy, and job creation. I haven't heard anything really about education, science research and development, stem cell research, etc.

2. Republicans' contempt for science

is what annoys me most about them.

5. Me too! It affects everything. You can't make good policy decisions without the facts...

... and science is the best at giving us the facts.

There was a lot of good "science" telling us Iraq had no WMDs.

Not to mention: their disdain for science and education in general could very well turn us into a Third World country inside of a decade or two. We are well on our way already.

But then again, a subpar educational system helps gets them elected!

6. By their POV, science is just another opinion.

Why would they change their minds about anything just because someone else has a different opinion?

3. totally

Far as I'm concerned this is the biggest reason they need to be defeated. And by defeated I mean squashed flat and forgotten :mad:

7. The fact that McCain's biggest enemy last night was a Planetarium says something

Says he was and is on the wrong side of the Galileo debate...
