John McCain Visits the Creationists

Tomorrow, John McCain will deliver the keynote address at a luncheon co-hosted by the Discovery Institute. For those who are unaware the Discovery Institute is the Seattle based “think tank” that is responsible for spearheading the religious right’s war on science education.

The Institute is responsible for, among other things, the creationist lesson plan that was proposed in Kansas, the anti-evolution language in the Santorum Amendment to the No Child Left Behind act, and the infamous Wedge Document.

None of our elected officials should lend credence to this organization, especially a ranking member of the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation.
