Standing before a group of schoolchildren, President Bush repeated an
oft-stated promise that his environmental policies would stand on hard
scientific research.

Since many Republicans are Creationists it's annoying when they start
talking about biology. They'd be consistent if they'd reject all the
other science they take for granted, especially lifesaving medical
advances made possible by a true understanding of biology (not some
ancient book). Bush has made several statements indicating he believes
in supernatural origins.

To many fundamentalists, wilderness protection impedes human
"progress" (aka relentless overpopulation) and people can never take
too much from nature because a Creator gave it to us anyway. This call
to a talk show illustrates how these anti-science nuts perceive
reality:

That particular fool actually admits resources are running out, but
listen to his disclaimer! I don't think George Bush and company see
the world too much differently. They need to stop pretending they're
on the side of real science.
