text: Full disclosure: I am a scientist, so if any readers have a bias against scientists, so be it.
  
  According to John Ibbitson (article author), Liberals are science based and Conservatives are largely faith based (paraphrasing I know and the author would say that distributions overlap - fair enough).  My point is that our society enjoys a separation of church and state, and from my perspective, that is the way it should be.
  
  Government representatives (either elected or appointed or employed) have a duty to support our science based regulatory system.  That is simply what the GG is doing.  If she does so enthusiastically, then more power to her - it is long overdue.  I don't have much patience for those who strongly defend opinions that can't be supported by evidence.
