Yep--if we had evolved as a species, GWB and his ilk would have been spontaneously rejected before birth. There is NO WAY we could have evolved if people like them still exist and prosper.

1. Maybe so.... but at this point.... would a (r)evolution be such a
sham(e)?? I think not.

3. You forget
periodically mutations occur -- both good and bad mutations.

4. There have always been mutants and evolutionary dead ends.
Bush is both.

9. What's it called when the unevolved wind up killing the evolved?
And are present-day humans going to be the first example of this?

10. It's actually worse than that. Mutation is a strong component
of natural selection. But Chimpy's so bad, his mutation didn't help at all in his environment--and it should have!

6. Well, he's out of his natural habitat.
GW's geneline was selected in an environment of beer, texas steers, and cocaine. He's been removed from his natural habitat much like the bonobos in captivity.

7. If that is true then intelligent design must be false as well.
Maybe we should call it Unintelligent Design. Devolution. :evilgrin:

Just like trilobites, only less modern.
