VA GOP chair thinks Darwin is a vewy vewy dangewous man

Conservatives are willing to revisit any history, however well established. It's why they're trying to make Darwin a bad word. Why the religious right has been a tear about Freud for years. Why the Republicans are now trying to claim that the New Deal didn't work. And why the Pope is embracing Holocaust-denying bishops. Conservatives don't learn the lessons of history, they rewrite history. It's what we witness in Congress every day of the week. Obama appoints three Republicans to his cabinet, when everyone else only appoints one opposition party member, and Obama is "too partisan." Or remember Ann Coulter accusing Democrats of being hateful and shrill? They accuse us of what they do. And the best way to rewrite history is to rewrite the present.
