Kondracke's parrot

No, not the bird. Just his blind, mindless recitation of the "intelligent design" is not science mantra on The Beltway Boys today. He then rants how it can't be science since it cannot be proven, studied, repeated, etc. It's just a bunch of stuff that fills in the holes in evolution. [Or words to that effect]

Uh. Mort?
The same objections you have to ID should be equally applied to evolution. Actually, doubly so.

The interesting thing about evolution is that it requires the absence of any input of design or intelligence. It follows that any designed experiment to prove evolution falls on it's face, since the design makes any experiment self invalidating. I almost feel sorry for the Darwinists. It's a tough quandry.

On the other hand. ID calls evidence from the information sciences. Since biologists themselves admit that the DNA is in itself the most complex information system ever observed, the use of the information sciences seems especially apropos. They really shouldn't complain. And information sciences are easily tested, proven, repeated, etc. etc...
