Sam Brownback has a surprisingly coherent, if fundamentally flawed, op-ed in the NYTimes about his belief in evolution
Ultimately, though, he wants the scientific theory of evolution to square up with his personal religious beliefs, which ain't how science works, Sam, no matter how much you may want it to.

Who doesn't believe in evolution?
Chris Matthews asked a throwaway question at the Republican debate last night, Brownback, Tancredo and Huckabee all answered affirmative. See, unlike virgin births or flying spaghetti monsters, evolution doesn't give a god damn if you believe.
