Democracy can design intelligently

I won't comment too much on this development because the subject makes me hyperventilate with rage and call well-intentioned if willfully ignorant people really bad names. All I'll say is "Yay."

And this:

This story, and recent developments in Kansas, prove how important it is to vote in every election, not just the biggies. Examine carefully the platforms of candidates for your local and state school boards. The Religious Right is famous for planting "stealth candidates" that seem innocuous but once elected fight to change school curriculums to concur with their narrow belief system.

Stay awake, get involved, and get your butt to the polling places every November (and don't forget primary and special elections, too). Lecture concluded.
