Only 12% of scientists call themselves Republicans and 81% call themselves dems, or leaning democratic.

Because you have to be ignorant to be a republican these days. Look at this guy...

i-node: Leave us the f*ck alone. I don't want to buy anyone else insurance and I don't want anyone to by me any. I pay my taxes, lots of them. I pay for what I buy and don't buy what I can't afford.

Just get the f*ck out of my life.


A fine example of enlightenment, eh?

Why is that do you figure??


I am glad to see this article was written in FLA. I think FLA is really turning its back on a lot of this winger craziness now that the Bushes are out of office.

How about engineers? Or scientists in the private sector?

Who does he count as a scientist? Someone at a university or government agency? Yeah, if they were Republican, they'd know they better hide it if they want to keep their job.

I don't know one doctor, engineer, dentist or scientist that is a democrat. Where was that poll taken at a college, those you can't do teach and get tenure so no matter how many errors they make they can't be fired. That's not the real world.
