Why is criticism of "Intelligent Design" considered important to furthering the Democrats success and the move left of this country?

That's amusing on a number of levels. ID has become more prominent in the past weeks because advocates for it have stepped up their efforts to use political and legal means (rather than actual science) to advance their cause. President Bush's comments a few weeks ago also made the subject more newsworthy. Now that others are responding to this, it is they who are advancing an agenda?

This is not a left vs. right issue. Turning it into such will only be detrimental to the Republican Party.

I guess you can point out all the articles in right leaning media criticizing "Intelligent Design".

Yes. Good point. I had forgotten about that.

The observation reinforces my point. It is seen as a way to further belittle and demean Bush and by implications conservatives.
