Wow....Dr. Dr. D has sunk to new levels-posting a WingNutDaily magazine as a legit source of science criticism.  Gotta keep his funders happy, and I wouldn't at all be surprised to find many DI/WND connections.

Google searches suggest an awful lot of cross referencing and collaboration:

WNDI?

I also love the irony of the"Hijacking of Science" title, written by the hijackers themselves, which don't seem to include a single actual scientist. Odd?

The closest thing to a scientist might be Art Robertson, who founded his own 'institute'
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oregon_Institute_of_Science_and_Medicine
Sadly, many of the faculty listed on the website appear to be quite dead. Also, despite having no background in it, he famously started an anti-global warming petition.

Ok, so I'm bored, but here's what quick searches turn up:

Joseph Farah: Editor in Chief of WND, birther royale
Chelsea Schilling: WND 'journalist'
Thomas Sowell: uberconservative columnist
Thomas Sowell: 9/11 Truther, Nafta conspriacist
Wayne LaPierre: NRA
David Kupelian: Runs the mag, based on the magazine 'New
                       Dimensions; he ran for Roy Masters of the Foundation  
                       of Human Understanding (cult into faith healing, etc..)
        http://conwebwatch.tripod.com/stories/2006/wndmasters.html
Jill 'Kill' Stanek:  On June 4, 2009, Keith Olbermann named Stanek his
                       "Worst Person in the World" for publishing pictures  
                       of Dr. Leroy Carhart's clinic immediately after the      
                       murder of Dr. George Tiller" Defends the homicide
Jack Cashill:  WND author, Obama/Ayers conspiracy theorist
Marylou Barry: WND Birther
Alan Keyes:  Yeah, that one

What a horrible, horrible set of friends to have.....

“The evolutionist’s comical dogma” by Alan Keyes, who asks why “dogmatic emotionalism” dominates the supposedly scientific inquiry into the origins of life

Noted scientist, freethinker and calm person Alan Keyes drools, screams and accuses biologists of dogmatic emotionalism?  I wouldn't give Whirled Nuts Daily $50 to see that, but it should be entertaining.
