Republican Congressmen vs. Science Oct 9th 2012, 19:23 This, on the Republicans on the House Science committee, brings to mind the ancient kings who made major decisions on the basis of chickens' entrails: http://maddowblog.msnbc.com/_news/20...committee?lite Snippet: Quote: It's quite a panel. Rep. Randy Neugebauer (R-Texas), who drafted a resolution for Americans to "join together in prayer to humbly seek fair weather conditions" after a series of destructive tornados and droughts, is also on the House Science Committee, as is Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-Calif.), who suggested "dinosaur flatulence" may have caused climate change 55 million years ago. They're joined by Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.), who has characterized climate science as an "international conspiracy," as well as Rep. Sandy Adams (R-Fla.), who supports having public-school science teachers offer lessons on "theories that contradict the theory of evolution." | | |
