It’s Not Your Imagination: Republicans Really Don’t Like Science | Mother Jones

Republicans don’t believe in science.

Oh, don’t get me wrong. I know otherwise bright people who think the GOP is teh shiznit. Engineers, educators, database gurus. But they just pull the lever. They aren’t looking at who they are voting for. Or – worse – they know and do it anyway.

You’ve got a party that doesn’t believe in evolution, or sex ed, or math apparently. Definitely not in climate change. Certainly not in the scientific method.

It would be pathetic if it wasn’t a plot to dumb down our nation long enough for them to hold power for another generation.

Boycotts Hitting Group Behind ‘Stand Your Ground’ Gun Laws : NPR

I like this.

Companies who support groups like ALEC for their business stances are now being targeted for being in bed with a group that in recent years has a) made it legal to shoot black kids based solely on whether or not they are wearing a hoodie, b) try to, for example, disenfranchise half a million voters (which is the plan here in Minnesota) to solve a supposed voter fraud problem which – if it occurs at all – shows up in about 0.00002% of all votes cast, and c) don’t start me on the immigration BS they are pulling in the past and future Treason States.

So, yes, if you fund this, knowingly or not, expect a backlash.

At this point, screw Kraft. They want to side with bigots, they don’t deserve my coin.
