weighs in again:

The basic problem, in my view, is that Behe outclasses Dawkins. Behe is a working biochemist who knows exactly what Darwinian evolution has and hasn?t done. Unlike Dawkins, who has contributed nothing of substance to science for many years, he does not make Darwinian evolution a substitute for religion. So it is safe for him to know what it can and cannot do.

Which sort-of implies that Behe has contributed something of substance to science over the past few years.  But if I check I find that ...  

Oh, sod it.  You know the punchline.  But he did write this appeal to political understanding:

Agarwal S, Behe MJ
Non-conservative mutations are well tolerated in the globular region of yeast histone H4
JOURNAL OF MOLECULAR BIOLOGY 255 (3): 401-411 JAN 26 1996

The UD take on this:
"The liberals are infecting our yeast!  They're plotting against good American bread!"
