The House Science Committee: Remove Rep. Paul Broun from the committee.
Rep. Paul Broun Wrote:“All that stuff I was taught about evolution and embryology and the Big Bang Theory, all that is lies straight from the pit of Hell... And it’s lies to try to keep me and all the folks who were taught that from understanding that they need a savior.”
That's hilarious. In the UK (sorry I don't want to keep rubbing it in) a politician who said that in a parliamentary select committee would find their political career to be over. That comment would dog him/her relentlessly, they would certainly be sacked from any government post they held, and would remain a maverick outsider until their inevitable de-selection at the next round of elections. That's if they didn't do the honourable thing and resign immediately, or men in white coats came to have a word.
That's why those words would never be said here - there is a political penalty for appearing a bit nutty.
