The Party of Caligula Loots the Smithsonian

Here's a story detailing the fraudulence and corruption under Republican employees at the Smithsonian.

I'm talking $1M salaries and, quote:"Lawrence M. Small, the top official at the Smithsonian Institution, accumulated nearly $90,000 in unauthorized expenses from 2000 to 2005, including charges for chartered jet travel, his wife's trip to Cambodia..."

This group of asshats allowed the Disco Institute to use their facilities to air creationist nonsense, in order to falsely impress upon the audience that the Smithsonian approved of their content or had reviewed it, but wouldn't let Olson's "Flock of Dodos" be shown. Go figure. More GOP corruption and pro-creationism (a.k.a. scientific ignorance): who'da thunk it?
