Tom Tancredo Allowed to Equate Evolution with Intelligent Design on Hardball

[Avalux]

I can't believe I just watched that (well actually, yes I can).

According to Tancredo, evolution and intelligent design are competing BELIEFS (evolution is not a belief) and both should be taught in school. He said TWICE that there's no evidence of evolution and Matthews didn't say a word, just let him continue to spout misinformation.

No wonder people in this country are stupid.

1. That was bullshit.

If he is going to have that discussion he should at least have someone from the science side to counter.

2. Made me angry.

Did you see how excited Tancredo was? He was able to talk unopposed for about ten minutes. I kept yelling "no" at the TV.

3. That's irresponsible bullshit

I quite watching Hardball a long time ago, but this surprises me. Why? I don't know.

How anyone can insinuate that an ID proponent is on the same scientific level as evolution is just disgusting.

4. Yep if Tweety didn't want to call him on it

and wanted to push his Catholicism, there should have been a third person there. No doubt Tweety's priest called him after he destroyed Pence last night.

It was a misinformation overload.

5. Don't stop your political opponents from making ignorant asses of themselves.

Words to live by.
