The Intelligent Design site, Uncommon Descent, had this to say :

“This may come as a surprise to many of you, but Science, at least according to Chris Matthews, is a Democrat thing. Personally, I was unaware that there was a “deomcrat” way to do science and a “republican” way to do science. Someone might explain to me how that works. Is there a “left” scientific method and a “right” scientific method? Matthews certainly seems to think so! How ignorant and disingenous of him! (But, we’re talking about Chris Matthews here, the most misinformed commentator on the networks as far as I’m concerned)
Its worth noting how Matthews tries to build a straw man about Young Earth Creationism (YEC) and then claim that there a “many” in the Republican party who hold that view and who are “anti-science”. Matthews demonstrates admirably the left’s derision of anyone who would dare question evolution, stem cell research, global warming and who knows what else. Matthews appears clueless about the real debates in science about all these things, and ignores completely any of the moral questions involved, pretending, I guess, that they don’t even exist!
I’ll grant that Mike Pence is not exactly the best spokesperson for Science and scientific issues, but trying to tie him to YEC and Fundamentalism only shows how shallow guys like Matthew and those on the left really are. Matthews did a great job of making a fool of himself…but then, he does that almost every night. That’s why MSNBC has the lowest rating of all the news networks.”
At this point, Hissy-fit and Olbermeister are paid to make complete fools of themselves, as there’s no other explanation.
Our hamster has more sense than these two put together.
“...to tie him to YEC and Fundamentalism...”
There’s nothing wrong with either of them!!..
Matthews is hardly the man to be speaking of intellect,or honesty.
