I suspect he has no idea which pieces of evidence for evolution are compatible with his creation concept and which are not. Since none of the evidence found so far contradicts the theory, perhaps he is trying to appear reasonable while rejecting everything.

It’s also self deception pandering to wishful thinking.

One would hope that our next president would realize that pandering to the RR just gets our once great country into a whole lot of trouble. Instead the idiots that the GOP keeps propping up as candidates look more extreme than ever. Thankfully their pathetic attempt to hold on to their extremist RR base will only further alienate them from the rest of the US electorate.

(that's what the jesuits told the mohawks anyway, telling them that it was a silly superstition...to suppose that dancing would appease their pagan gods was just a ridiculous fairy tale...now genuflecting, "that's another matter all together") Brownback's comments certainly draw more backlash today than they would have 30 years ago(way to go young people!!!) It is good to let the stupidity out once in a while so that the rational among us can react to it. My daughter's reaction was..."what the f%*k's the matter with that asshole?"(i don't know where she learned such language...probably from her mother)...but if brownback keeps talking, she'll be swearing like a hungover marine by the primaries...and i'll be proud as hell.
