Why will any news out of Europe embarrass and humiliate America? Because American Conservative's hostility to funding science and scientific discovery has put America in the place of a second rate nation.
Science should not be ideological and political, but conservatives have found making science so in America equals higher expectations for turnout during elections. Motivate the base. What base? Ask Jesus' proselytizers and Ayn Rand's nitwit followers (Ron/Rand Paul anyone?) -- politics makes strange bedfellows.
So when you see threads and posts about the GOD Particle, remember who calls for killing science research and technology.

Race for the God Particle
From the August/September 2007 Trumpet Print Edition »
As scientists run their biggest race, the U.S. falls hopelessly behind Europe.
By Mark Jenkins
The biggest race in science has been on for decades now, but by this time next year, the United States will no longer be a contender. The most expensive, sophisticated machine on Earth will come online in Europe in 2008: a new Large Hadron Collider (lhc) at the cern nuclear research facility on the border of Switzerland and France. Researchers will be looking for a theoretical particle called the Higgs boson, known as the “God particle” to enthusiasts because its existence would explain why particles have mass.
