"The Earth is not 6000 years old and even if it is I am not basing any fucking policy betting it is"

"No I was not chosen by God to run for President, my wife made me do it"

"If any media asshat does not understand the difference between speculation and fact, please STFU"

"I may still be caught between science and superstition, but I think I gravitate towards science"

"Cut off sentences in comment headlines with the main body out of sight, what is up with that?"

Shit like that to make ears pop and minds fucking open before the media shuts the door completely.

Very grumpy this morning, sorry....
