The Antiscience Campaign of the GOP Continues

Jindal's stupid line on Volcano Monitoring in his answer to the President's speech.

"What the heck is it with these guys? I don’t mean Republicans in general, I mean the ones running the party. Do they not get what’s really important, and what’s just rhetorical partisan garbage? I hope that this line by Jindal becomes his fruit fly, his planetarium-as-overhead-projector. Because when people in charge say things so mind-numbingly dumb, it is our duty to make sure everyone knows it."

I also like the bit where he mentions "something called magnetic levitation" as if it's ridiculous, and not super-high tech and cool.

Oh, and the new cars he mentions in this clip? They're hybrids, or I suppose I should say "something called a 'high-bridge'".

"Mass Transit is bad! It will hurt the value of my shares in Bridgestone (which I shouldn't be taxed on)!!!"


Hey! What about the poor oil companies and struggling airlines? And all those unfortunate TSA agents! They'll have to go back to selling fruit on the turnpike.
