re: #260 SixDegrees
True - at least for the moment. The power of the Federal government over local schools increases with every passing year, however.
And, to be blunt - I cannot vote for anyone who declares themselves to be a creationist. Creationism is a sickening, repulsive distortion of science done deliberately, for the express purpose of sneaking a theocratic government into place through the back door of elementary school science classes. Anyone running for public office who declares that they are a creationist, displays creationist leanings or has a history of supporting creationist activity will instantly lose my vote. End of story.
Not a Reagan fan I take it?
