Do you have any evidence "liberals" don't support science? I'd be interested in statistics on this- if you have them. I remember reading that the National Academy of Science is liberal. I'm wondering how you came up with your generalization and what evidence you have to support it. I'm a biology undergrad, and I met a lot of liberals who supported science, and most of the science professors (biology) were liberal. It's possible the engineers are conservative, but since I'm married to a very liberal one, and see a lot of his very liberal engineer friends, I don't have much data on that.

According to the above most scientists lean democratic, but I'd be interested to see your statistics.

And this article suggests much of science emerges from the "left leaning academic world"- which is why I thought your generalization would be off base:
