This is from an interview after his Iowa victory. Huckabee is one of the three Republican presidential candidates who had expressed doubts about evolution. Well, here at least he is technically not saying anything wrong. Its just that our standards have gotten so low that we take any lack of hostility towards science, especially evolution, as a victory. The bit about evolution/creationism is roughly 2 and a half minutes into the interview.
And just for giggles, here is Ann Coulter on Huckabee's views on evolution (this is from couple of weeks back):
I think that's the first time I've seen "giggles" and "Ann Coulter" in the same sentence.
ReplyDeleteShe's got a point, but I think she's discounting the number of people who are the same kind of conservative caricatures as Huckabee is. But now she gets the same lack of confidence in the Republican candidates that liberals have had in Democratic candidates for years.
