From the "Me too" file.

PZ Meyers...

I think we can safely say that no Republican should be allowed anywhere near the reins of government.

Ya' think? Me too, and not just because, as Dr. Meyers laments, "They're anti-science through and through," though Cthulhu knows that's reason enough.

If the intertubes seem sluggish today...

...they're probably clogged up with copies of this enroute to PZ Myers...

From the groves of academe…

...notes from a couple members of my unofficial academic advisory committee...

Neil Sinhababu...

If you take the people who claim to want bipartisanship at face value, they stand out in our politics as a class of especially confused and ineffective people.

...and PZ Meyers...

Candidates who stick their fingers in their ears and reject reality simply don't deserve to hold office.

And yes, this material may be in the final.

Don't know much biology...

Rick Perry fact of the day, via PZ Meyers...

Perry is the guy who has appointed three creationists in a row to head the Texas Board of Education.

Probably not coincidentally...

PZ Meyers for Vice President!

He's rested, he's ready, he has notes.

Tell your schoolboard...

There are, of course, shirts and such.

Meet PZ Cthulhu...


One for the want list...

Ask Mr. Science.

Professor Myers offers Michele Bachmann (R-Ozone) a science lesson...

She claims that not one study has ever been produced to show that CO2 is harmful, and she goes further to claim that CO2 is a harmless gas. We could correct that in just a few minutes: give me a large tank of CO2 and a small room containing Michele Bachmann, and we'll give her a personal experience.

If you need a lab assistant for that, Doc, just holler. Meanwhile, I'll follow your advice to point and laugh.
