He also believes in creationism

Socrates II — 5/2/2008 4:03:28 PM (archived)

Just as being a smart scientist does not necessarily make one
a good leader, neither does being a war hero automatically make
one, either.

I had nothing terribly against McCain before, but the more I
hear him speak on issues he clearly knows nothing about, the
less happy I become.

Do we really need another 4 years or more of yet another
leader who wouldn't know science if it bit him on the ass?
