Which guy, Lee Harris or Chris Mooney? I had to go back and reread the article, and I'm going to have to say, both of them.

Exactly. Being willing to swallow whatever the cat drags in isn’t a sign of intelligence. Smart people are and should be skeptical.

To: Lazamataz
This is a slight variation on the Republicans and Conservatives are STOOPID falsememe going around the so-called scientific elite. You ain't know?
25 years ago, we had Ronald Reagan, Johnny Cash, and Bob Hope.
Today we have Obama, no cash, and no hope!If you can't appreciate the pure beauty of the violin after hearing this, something's wrong with your ears.
Or you can get raw with these strings.
How about this gamechanger from America's Got Talent (which they SHOULD have won).
And finally, this, dedicated to the one and only rdb2, WHO HAS RETURNED HOME!.
Either way, the violin is sweet yet LETHAL.
Do it!

Liberals, on the other hand, are more open-minded and tolerant of uncertainty, How about a world where uncertainty is caused by pulling the government money plug from all the liberal institutions? The uncertainty of a free market? The uncertainty of local communities setting their own education standards? No, libs do not like uncertainty at all.

"...when the facts change?" Facts do not change.
To: neverdem
I read the entire piece. ugh. I wish there had been an abstract instead. People need to read the entire post. This was not a slam at Republicans. The writer postulated that democrats are obedient to authority, whereas republicans are skeptical.

I love science and religion and I damned well am not a Republican. I’m a conservative.

“They ferociously resist any evidence that might force them to change their deep-seated convictions.”
Road apples. Reality has forced me, since my mid-twenties, to change my opinion on practically every important issue.

Last night, it was me in the moonlight, your moonlight because of all the pesky thunderstorm clouds overhead. This morning, it’s not really me, it’s the lightning.
It is a dark and stormy morning.

Better!!
