Ga. Rep. Paul Broun calls evolution, embryology, Big Bang theory lies ‘from the pit of hell’ (McCain, generations)

AND he's a Young Earth Creationist. He believes the "Earth is about 9,000 years old"

Do you believe the Earth is only about 9000 years old too?

It can't do much for the average Republican's self-esteem to be associated with slime like Broun, but they somehow manage to get over it. They must really, really be desperate for a tax cut.

Tragically I have to deal with this fool, he's my district rep...I campaign against him everytime he's up for election...he's worthless and stupid to boot...he went to GA med school as a "legacy" student (his father was a student also)...he never really practiced but made "house calls"...meaning no office etc.

My best friend lives in Smyrna and gets my hero John Lewis as her rep and I get a bonehead.

The only difference between this and what is being promulgated in the churches, mosques, and synagogues here in the northeast is the tone.

No, he doesn't.

Others, like myself, have become former Republicans who now stand in opposition to the GOP's newfound willful stupidity.

I'm a registered independent and will remain so as long as people like this continue to pop up as representatives of the GOP.
