Subject: RE: BS: KansASS - idiots on the board of Ed
The "good" news in Kansas is that the standard tests won't be revised to include questions on "intelligent design" for about two years, so this crap doesn't have to be included immediately; and four of the six IDIOTS will have to run for re-election next year. It is possible that the new rules may be changed before they ever go into effect, although it's by no means certain.

It should also be noted that Kansas is only one of a half-dozen states with similar "standards" established within the last couple of years. Kansas has just flaunted their ignorance a little (well actually a lot) more than the others.

There's also that Kansas did the same thing, establishing a requirement to include "creationism" in the school curricula fairly recently. It was removed by the next succeeding school board, after the election. That makes Kansas an easy target, because there are lots of old "jokes" that can just be dusted off and recycled.

The notoriety Kansas is getting from this may be helpful in getting the BRAINWASHED BRAIN-DEAD BIGOTS off the Kansas School Board, so please keep the "jokes" going. And note that jokes are probably more effective than rational arguments, since those who've done it are completely immune to any rational or logical arguments.
