Huckabee-Palin 2012!
Chris Mooney, author of The Republican War on Science, says:

"The goal must be nothing less than to break the cycle - to make intellectualism a permanent value of American culture. A two-term presidency would help. So would maintaining those early pledges of support to science. And most of all, there is leading by example, continuing to extol thinking, and not being afraid to come to its aid now and again."

The claim that Obama represents "intellectualism," "science," and "thinking" is ludicrous.  What I fear is that even if Americans one day wise up enough to see through the vacuous emotionalism of Obamaism, they will not be wise enough to embrace an actual intellectual opposition.  They will instead conclude, based on the claims of Mooney and his ideological fellow-travellers, that America needs the most anti-intellectual, anti-science, anti-thought leadership possible, which means some combination of Huckabee and Palin on the GOP ticket in 2012.  God help us.
