Richard Dawkins channels Miss Teen South Carolina

The original:

And Dawkins' brilliant, brilliant impression:

Classic signs that he doesn't have a clue how to answer the question: rapid blinking, eyes looking up and to the side, looking away, mouth opening and closing, mouth hanging open, and biting his bottom lip.

And my favorite split-second from the video:

UPDATE: A commenter on RK provided a link to a response to this video:

According to Dawkins, he paused because the question revealed that the interviewers were creationists, that he had been duped about their motives. He paused to think about how to handle them,

Oh, okay. It's the interviewers' fault. And how exactly does the question reveal that the interviewers were Creationists? Do evolutionists not ask questions like that? Are they not allowed to?

and the change of subject occurred due to the several minutes when he confronted them being omitted from the video (Dawkins 2003).

Three questions: (1) Why would a confrontation change the subject, (2) since there is no footage of the alleged confrontation, how do we know it actually happened, and (3) why did it take Dawkins 6 years after the video was made to answer this issue?

The question is equivalent to asking how complexity could evolve, which Dawkins has covered in at least four books (The Blind Watchmaker, River Out of Eden, Climbing Mount Improbable, and A Devil's Chaplain). He has answered the question at great length.

Then why couldn't he come up with an immediate answer?

The ability of a single person to answer a question is largely irrelevant. The scientific literature is rife with examples of information increasing.

This isn't just any single person. This is Richard flipping Dawkins. This is the evolutionists' go-to guy. This is the guy they fawn over. This is the guy who is supposed to be so intellectually superior to Creationists that he is supposed to be able to run circles around them. So in light of all this scientific literature that is allegedly "rife" with information that could've answered this question, again why couldn't he come up with an immediate answer? Was his superior intellect thrown for a loop by the sudden and shocking revelation that his interviewers were allegedly Creationists? And if it was, how does that make his intellect superior?
