True Tea Party "Leanings" -- at last divined by top scientists!
Well, it's official. "Science" has weighed in on "the Tea Party"!
Nature.com (a site which bills itself as an "international scientific journal") has turned its "scientific" eyes on the Tea Party movement, which it sees as anti-science. Among the evidence for this, the scientific critics cite alleged "leanings":
The Tea Party's leanings encompass religious opposition to Darwinian evolution...
OK, I have been to at least six Tea Party rallies, and a number of meetings, and not once have I ever heard the word "evolution" or the name "Darwin" so much as mentioned. I did hear a debate about the importance of the abortion issue once, but even then the people present didn't seem to feel it was a Tea Party issue.
So where did the authors of this scientific screed find these "leanings"?
I find myself wondering whether they might have some leanings themselves.

The same place where Robert Mapplethorp kept his bullwhip.
And scientists wonder why they are not trusted as much as they used to be.
