we're reading too much into this too clever by half

we're reading too much into this too clever by half punting of the question: maybe he honestly had no idea what the number actually is.
@nhautamaki Oh, I have know idea how un-educated he actually is, or what he actually knows. ;) I was just saying that there is a valid point to be made that the age of the Earth has nothing to do with governing our country, and he *could* have made that point without appealing to Teh Stoopid. I'm not sure of anything, other than continuing to hedge his bets to try to appeal to the anti-science know-nothings as well as the broader swath of the electorate who rejects that should get him nothing but derision and scorn. Ridiculous!
Luceee, I'm home. Did you know, it is useless to raise taxes on wealthy, they will just find way around them? I'm not a scientist. No way to know how old the earth is.And, Lucy was supposed to be the dumb one.
Rubio is not a very bright launch x431 guy to start with, but these quotes just prove the problem the GOP has. The crazy base isn't going anywhere. Trying to pick a candidate who will be "all things to all people" didn't work in 2012 and it won't work moving forward. Romney came within 4 million votes of Obama, but if the anti-black Obama Derangement Syndrome wasn't out in full force Romney would havereceived 35-40% in a landslide loss. In 2016 the GOP won't have a black guy to run against.
@tommyudo Hadn't you heard? The "know-nothing" (read: know all the wrong things) Republican base is "bound to be expurgated." Chris Christie will be swept into office by the 30% of Americans who call themselves neither Democrats or Republicans.
I really can't stand politicians that think science and ignorance is something we should teach odometer correction tool our kids on equal footing. It's idiotic to treat one as the same as the other.
@MrObviousFalse equivalency is something that people trip over themselves to engage in to show that they're not biased. It's ridiculous. "Intelligent Design" and creationism do not deserve to be treated with the same seriousness
