Unintelligent Design

All right, I can't help but make one or two knee-jerk comments about a headline I saw at the bottom of today's Inquirer: "Bush Backs Teaching Intelligent Design." Some B.S. about how teaching intelligent design gives students more ideas to think about.

So I think now would be a good time for us all to go out and rent "Inherit the Wind," and not just because Gene Kelly is so sexy. And I guess I just want to underscore the profound irony of W. propounding a theory of "intelligent design" as an explanation for the creation of life/humankind. Doesn't he kind of disprove that theory every time he opens his mouth?
