Thompson debates Galileo

 
Has anbody been paying attention to Fred Thompson’s mutterings?  His latest is that students at Virginia Tech could have saved themselves if they had been packing heat — as in guns.

Another is his feeble attempt to link those who don’t believe in Global Warming with Galileo.  I doubt very much that most right-wingers ever heard of Galileo.  But Fred Thompson has the story of Galileo a**-backwards.  Galileo got in trouble for saying that the sun did not revolve around the earth.  As far as I can tell, most right-wingers who don’t believe in Global Warming still think the sun revolves around the earth.
