January 3, 2008Hillary Clinton on teaching evolutionThe New York Times: Mrs. Clinton also tacitly criticized opponents of evolution. Some of the 2008 Republican presidential candidates have said flatly that they do not believe in evolution, while other Republican contenders have said they support teaching evolution, intelligent design and creationist ideas. “I believe in evolution, and I am shocked at some of the things that people in public life have been saying,” Mrs. Clinton said in the interview. “I believe that our founders had faith in reason and they also had faith in God, and one of our gifts from God is the ability to reason.” The Clinton attack on White House science policy is not especially new; Mrs. Clinton has used the phrase “war on science” frequently on the campaign trail, and it has reliably drawn applause from Democratic audiences.

There's something for everybody in Clinton's new energy plan, but it's toothless in the areas that truly matter. Outlawing incandescent light bulbs? Fine. Add 100,000 plug-in hybrid vehicles to the federal fleet? We'll take them. Produce 60 billion gallons of "home-grown" biofuels by 2030? Won't happen, even with fat-lap federal subsidies.
