I used to work across the street from the American Enterprise Institute. It made me unclean and I took two showers a day to try and wash the scent of war mongering and crony capitalism from my skin. But you never get truly clean after that. Not ever.

And Bill Kristol, who is not only a terribly columnist, but also a fellow at the Institute, used to get his coffee at the same place as me.

You probably remember Bill Kristol as being the son of respected thinker and essayist, Irving Kristol (Bill will never be remembered as either). You might also remember Bill Kristol for being a big ol’ sycophant and for generally being wrong about everything.

But all this is leading up to offering you a glimpse of this marvelously wrought bit of straw man ridiculousness.

Because you know who the real enemy of science is? California liberals.

They’re always in the street, demanding that evolution not be taught in schools and ignoring the overwhelming body of scientific evidence supporting both the existence of global climate change and humanity being a driving factor in its acceleration.

Or am I getting them confused with someone else?
