wtf?

Are you absolutely sure there isn't already a pipe there that God installed during the 5th day of creating the Earth? I could have sworn I read something about that in the Bible!

That hick actually thinks he won that "battle" of the wits.

"Hey thar mister scientiss...whar did all them oylz cum frum"? I think it's time we started a new meme... LOLGUVERMINTOFFISHULZ! It's like LOLCATZ......only dumber..........and running parts of our country. *coughredstatescough*

Obvious answer..

"it came from the internets"

This makes me depressed beyond belief.

Their cultural background is so different from us. Understandable, United States is a big country,but we are still living in the same country, and two people living in the same country not being able to understand each other on the level of each culture's common sense, is extremely alarming.

Because surely if Rep. Joe Barton were to be questioned about what happened to Peter when he was being crucified he would know the answer, while Dr. Chu may not have a clue.

From a series of tubes.

His next question was: Where did all the tea in china come from?

Peter was offered salvation from crucifixion if he could simply tell the Roman centurion how oil got to Alaska. Unfortunately, he also thought it was continental drift through hundreds of millions of years of geological change. Poor guy.

.. eesh..

Where do babies come from?

*texas

there ought to be a law that banjo and/or fiddle music plays in the background whenever one of these yokels speaks.

It must be so hard to work in policy... to deal with this shit every day and not respond with bitter condescension.

I was going to ask this question

"I like to bash a religious/right wing nut as much as the next guy, but does Barton actually think things are biblical or is he just asking rhetorical questions in order to create a framework for debate?"

But upon further review, Barton is a "drill here, drill now" Fucktard.

congrats. you get the internet of the day award, that was so win.

the fuck

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

I hope he secedes with the rest of Texas.

Okay, so this thing is out of context and I'm too lazy to actually research it. My impression, though, is that he's not looking for a "God put the oil there" answer. I think his goal is to suggest that global warming doesn't matter because oil being up there would be a result, in his mind, of it having once been far warmer in that part of the world in the past (since there'd be more things living there).

He's unaware of plate tectonics, which is sad, but it doesn't mean that he's a Bible-thumping Creationist any more than ignorance of the Old Testament turns a Baptist into a scientist.

Ah.. now I see. THIS is why republicans are completely against required testing to hold an office in our country. It's so simple. Why didn't I realize that all along!?!?

Can you tell me how the Earth got here? Wut'n it obvious that at one time it was a lot emptier in the solar system? It wut'n a big bulldozer that we created and moved it here.

So it just drifted together here from stuff floating around in space? I suppose you think it orbits the sun too?

(assumes the laughter is in his favor)

(pats self on back for rendering the scientist speechless)

Poor guy, it's hard to react to such a mind-bogglingly stupid question out of the blue like that.

The Bachman Effect strikes again!

It wudn't made over millions of yars. It wus made by God 6000 yers ago for use by Jesus. But the heretic bastards kill'im they did. Yesseree. Uh hum.

There be a display at the creation museum. I suggest ya see it.

How Bachman got elected, I'm not sure. No one I know voted for him, not even my 62 year old aunt. Then again we live in Austin.

whoops, Barton, heh, just finished watching a video for that other dumb asshat.

Promoting to remind people that Joe "I apologized to BP for making them pay for a spill" Barton is no stranger to *fail.
