Cartoons are better science sources than conservative experts

Above is a clip from a cartoon on Comedy Central that mentions evolution, below are some words on the same subject from one of the leading intellectual lights of the modern conservative movement. Which one is more trustworthy?
For me, the plausibility of evolution is further strained by Darwin's assertion that within fifty to one hundred years of his time, scientists would become geologically sophisticated enough to find the fossil remains of the entire evolutionary tree in an unequivocal step-by-step progression of life from amoeba to man—including all of the intermediate species. Of course that was 150 years ago, and there is still no such evidence.  
It's not even close; the words of Republican presidential candidate Dr. Ben Carson lose out to Futurama in a first round knock-out.
Carson's duplicity begins in the very first quoted sentence: paleontologists do not assert that the fossil record would or should contain the preserved remains of every individual organism that ever lived. But they have certainly found plenty of transitional fossils in that record representing the evolution of amphibians from fish, birds from reptiles, whales from land animals, and humans from earlier primates, just to name a few.
Clowns like Carson aren't interested in truth, they're interested in fleecing the conservative faithful for money and power, and in that seedy profession, misinformation works much better.
this guy is touted as one of the smartest and renown neurosurgeon's in the world begs the question did he try experimental surgery on himself?  his further proof of delusion is not only his ObamCares is worst than slavery remark but that he thinks he has a chance of being the republican president, be assured he is the uninvited laughed at member of the republican primary Mr. Toads wild ride sitting under the rest of the republican azzes, and he's not holding his nose just happy to be there, more proof of his "I JUST WANNABE"
