Inane Creationist Argument

jedsaBibleland Studios has a post that claims that drool points to a designer. I beg to differ.
Bibeland Studios argues that there is no evolutionary advantage to devoping "the oral neuromuscular control at age 18-24 months" and therefore, being able to not drool is "the gift of dignity" from a Creator.
Of course, Bibleland Studios accidentally defeats their own argument. Drooling constantly would lead to "iritating sores that develop from skin being constantly wet." Gee, Bibleland Studios-constant sores. You don't think that this would lead to an evolutionary disadvantage?
Moreover, as Bibleland Studios acknowledges in said post, there are people with cerebral palsy or loss of facial muscle control who do have an inability to not drool. Where is their gift of dignity? If oral neuromuscular control stems from a Creator and not evolution, why couldn't a powerful Creator design people to not get conditions such as cerebral palsy? Or are they somehow not deserving of God's, er, sorry, the Creator's, gift of dignity? (Right, right, it's a Creator, but not necessarily God! It's really the flying spaghetti monster....*coughs*)
