Wow, this is crazy. I pay really close attention to political stories on the web and elsewhere, but I haven't seen this yet. It seems almost like an Onion article: "President Bush today issued public backing for a book claiming that the Grand Canyon was created by the Noah's Ark flood, that Yellowstone National Park was Eden, and that monkeys are flying out of my ass. In a related story, up is down, black is white, and we invaded Iraq because they were trying to undermine the sanctions that had succesfully disarmed Saddam in order to reconstitute weapons of mass destruction related program activities that may, in some future date, theoritically create WMDs."

Good lord. This is utterly unacceptable. Pseudo-science books with the intention of "proving" religious history have no place being sold in bookstores in national parks.
