Why don’t liberals believe in Darwinism and Natural Selection?

That may sound counterintuitive, or at least wrong-headed, given the number of little fish on the back of yuppie Volvos in which a big fish labeled “DARWIN” is devouring a little fish labeled with a cross.

But – think about it for a bit.

Per Wikipedia,  “Natural selection is the process by which heritable traits that make it more likely for an organism to survive and successfully reproduce become more common in a population over successive generations. It is a key mechanism of evolution.”

Well, here’s a modest proposal. Rather than looking to Massachusetts or Tennessee for examples of health care reform, why not look to Texas?
