anyways, i just skimmed the article and nowhere did i see anything hinting at a "sizable segment"...the media reports crap - by no means does it mean its the majority thought, its usually the minority that has the loudest voice.
Since when does sizable segment equate to a majority? That was neither insinuated in the article or my posts. The people whom the article's author describes as "Idiot America" may not be a majority, but they're a large enough portion of the American population that they can swing elections one way. The fact that there's even a discussion over the ridiculous notion of teaching creationism in a science classroom should be telling enough about how much influence they're wielding.
