Either that, or he's an idiot. The question was whether you believe in evolution... and had nothing to do with what forces might be causing evolution. Like I keep telling my eight-year-old, who had a rough go in third grade this year... answer the question that's asked. But my son has an excuse. He's only eight. What's Brownback's excuse?http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/05/31/209526.aspx#209567Thu, 31 May 2007 13:54:13 GMT8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:209567Steve Turner Cedar Falls IowaSo Brownback believes in...? The Creation of Evolution? The Evolution of Creationism? Creative Evoultion? Evolving Creationism? Evo-Creationism? Crevolution? He's created eggs in two baskets and they are both evolving, I guess.http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/05/31/209526.aspx#209611Thu, 31 May 2007 14:26:07 GMT8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:209611Coy Reese, Shady Spring, West VirginaBrownback realizes how incredibly stupid it appears to not acknowledge evolution of our earth, when the evidence is spread throughout the planet. In other words, Brownbeck is a "creationist" who buys into the allegorial tale in the Bible of 6 days + 1 day of rest....a few thousand years back. George W. Bush is also a believer in this kind of hogwash. The ten clones of Bush running for his job are precisely what America does not need, after the debacle of the Bush Regime has ended. The pathetic attempts of Brownback, to backpedal and attempt to paint himself as less than a religious zealot, are wholly unsuccessful. Run from this guy (and the other 9 who are virtually indistinguishable from one another....and more to the point, are copies of George W. Bush).http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/05/31/209526.aspx#209685Thu, 31 May 2007 15:07:33 GMT8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:209685Andrew, Rockville, MDIf his hand was up for the evolution question, do America a favor and vote for one of the other guys. Enough with this stupidity. We have a hard enough time maintaining world respect without this constant annoying and false "debate" overshadowing science. Evolution, however you want to say it was directed to adhere to your faith, happened. Don't be an idiot. Stop making us look like idiots.http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/05/31/209526.aspx#209724Thu, 31 May 2007 15:27:06 GMT8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:209724H P BostonThat would be impossible Andrew.

I did a double take, because I thought.. I must have heard that wrong.. is he for REAL? Then I heard it again played on talk Radio. What a renaissance man he is. HA!
