"The first gripe I had about Rush Limbaugh was how often he mangled the science and seemed proud of his illiteracy."

Yes, I agree. It's really the only thing that bugs me about Limbaugh, and some others in the conservative movement. Science should be our friend. And, it does no good to have a reactionary disbelief of everything scientific.

It's truly shameful how scientifically illiterate (and economically illiterate) so many Americans have become. And, it's doubly painful to see many in the Republican base embrace scientific illiteracy.

Where are you getting this idea Rush is anti science?... he is anti junk science...anti bad science...good science is based in logic and rational thinking that will reproduce the same results in independent trials.....science is not politically correct conscience and group think
