Conservative commentators are taking aim at the whole field of social science in the aftermath of that fabricated gay-marriage study, but Tabitha M. Powledge writes that their allegations of a broad liberal conspiracy in science are misplaced: "The social sciences do possess a liberal bias. But it’s not a conspiracy. It’s human nature, a byproduct of liberal leanings. And, I would add, a political leaning not only among social scientists, but among all scientists."
