Of course. What can I expect from you? You'll suck up just about any article written by a creationist. I suspect you've only read the title. Had you read everything (it's very short, don't be lazy) and thought carefully about how a short opinion blog could disprove Darwin's theory, you know you shouldn't even be taking it seriously.
This is easy to dismantle. The article merely gave a couple of historical cases where fossils of so-called missing links turned out to be hoaxes: Piltdown Man (which turned out to be the bones of a medieval Englishman) and Nebraska Man (which turned out to be something crudely assembled from the skeletons of a pig).
What else is new? Fossils like these, if proven authentic, can sell for a fortune. One can easily expect attempts to fraudulently produce "missing link" fossils. But what did we say about "missing links"? Even if not a single fossil has been found, Darwin's Theory of Evolution is still very secure. The theory does not hinge its validity on the missing link fossil.
Secondly, the writer is Pat Buchanan, an American Conservative politician. You're going to take his word for it? The guy even went on in that article to bash Global Warming as the hoax of the 21st century. I mean, I don't know about you...if Global Warming is indeed a hoax, I know I won't be taking my facts from Pat Buchanan.
This is out of topic. Did you know that Pat Buchanan is a well-known pro-Nazi, anti-Semitic Holocaust-denier? In his New York Post column of March 17, 1990, Patrick Buchanan wrote:
Since the war, 1,600 medical papers have been written on "The Psychological and Medical Effects of the Concentration Camps on Holocaust Survivors."
This so-called "Holocaust Survivor Syndrome" involves "group fantasies of martyrdom and heroics." Reportedly, half the 20,000 survivor testimonies in Jerusalem are considered "unreliable," not to be used in trials.

And what does Pat think about women?
---Pat Buchanan - Washington Times. November 18, 1983Rail as they will against ‘discrimination,’ women are simply not endowed by nature with the same measures of single-minded ambition and the will to succeed in the fiercely competitive world of Western capitalism…The momma bird builds the nest. So it was, so it ever shall be. Ronald Reagan is not responsible for this; God is.

BUtt in lang ko ha ... these kind of argument/reasoning just proves there is someone or something out there which we call the MOVER .... infinite indeed .
Remember St. Augustine's arguments proving a SUPREME BEING existed ?
Maski mo ingon pa ta na manmade pod ang pag name nato na OMNICIENT , OMNIPRESENT ... it only justifies na still behind that GREAT ACRHITECT is way more better GREATER ARCHITECT and so and so forth and that is valid enough to be conclusive na LIFE started as INTELLIGENT , not as a single cell that EVOLVED .
