Maybe the Aussies can help a bit here...

Tancredo, Huckabee and Brownback. Wow. Last night's "debate", and their answers on whether they believe in evolution.

With only little alteration, the best response to this sort of idiocy might come in the words of Australian politician Kevin Rudd
"This election in just a few months time will be about the future versus the past,'' he said. And we friends are the party of the future.

"And our opponents, friends, have become the party of the past.'' ...

"Mr Howard doesn't really believe in a single idea which didn't appear on black and white television,'' Mr Rudd said to laughter and applause from the crowd.

"No one is a bigger fan of Ward Cleaver than me, but I've got news for Mr Howard, the world has changed since Leave It To Beaver,'' he said of the American 1950s TV show.
Except maybe in the case of Tancredo, Huckabee and Brownback, new ideas are approximately 2000 years old.
