So how does evolution contradict thermodynamics without life itself doing so first?

Sound of crickets...

Which is why the phrase "pig ignorant" is kind, even generous, when applied to 2nd Law arguments. It is particularly troublesome when a national magazine catering to conservatives can't get this right.

What else can they not be trusted on?

I know someone from the magazine is lurking on this thread. My advice is to wake up and drop this line of argument.

Yep, that's the reaction so far.

Well, if The American Spectator wants to take over the title of Most Pathetic Conservative Tabloid from Wingnut Daily they'll still have some catching up to do. Pandering to creationists isn't enough. For instance they'll have to go into full scale panic over some issue on the level of Y2K.
