Charles M. Blow in the Times today writes about the overwhelming anti-intellectualism of the Republican party. Last week Senator Rubio, when asked the age of the earth, said we'd have to ask the theologians. According to Gallup, 58% of Republicans believe that God created man in his present form less than 10,000 years ago. Only 16% of Republicans worry a great deal about global warming. The party is being taken over by fundamentalist Christians and appears headed for the same fate as the dinosaurs.
