"I've said it before and I will probably have to say it again, "You can't defeat creatoinism with bad science.""

But you can defeat it with the words of Richard Leakey who is a renowned scientist.

Indeed, but Richard Leakey doen't spout bad science as far as I have heard.

Creationism doesn't qualify as any kind of science and so is self defeating.

True.

If this information has been around as has been alluded to and ignored, it says volumes about the specious arguments of Creationism.

It hasn't been ignored. It is now pretty much mainstream having fought it out for a few years with the multiregional hypothesis. Here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitochondrial_Eve is a good place to start.

Where is the bad science here?

If Steve Shaw and I agree (in our own different ways. I said "It is not a peer reviewed science journal.", he said "The article is crap") that the article is not really up to snuff, I think it is worth considering that it should be read with caution. A couple of quotes -
obliterating any literal interpretation of the Garden of Eden and replacing it with a new evidence-based creed. The Garden of Eden is not science. Neither evolution nor genetics is a creed.
Spencer Wells (pictured below). With his blond hair, blue eyes and Nebraska roots, he is the ideal high priest to explain to white Americans that they are blacks gone curdy. I will not speculate on what the man thinks he is saying here.

Evolution is not a religion, regardless of how many times that lie is repeated.

Certainly not, which is why I get rather annoyed with people who ought to know better talking as if it is.

It is a science in transition that is being used to find new evidence and breakthroughs in the scientific understanding of mankind as a species.

Not just mankind, but all life on Earth. All science is transitional; that's why "Evolution is true" just won't do.

There may not be total unanimity about scientific studies, that's not the role of science,
but to ignore it entirely as the Creationists have done merits no consideration on their part as having a valid argument.

Couldn't agree more.
