Justin is Moving to Dover, Pennsylvania

Voters came down hard Tuesday on Dover, Pa., school board members who ordered a statement on intelligent design read in biology class, ousting eight Republicans and replacing them with Democrats who want the concept stripped from the science curriculum.

And then there's Kansas, where schools were first in desegregation and haven't done anything right since. The state Board of Education approved science standards for public schools that cast doubt on the theory of evolution. The 6-4 vote was a victory for intelligent design advocates who helped draft the standards.

Intelligent design holds that the universe is so complex that it must have been created by some kind of higher force. The statement read to students says Charles Darwin's theory is "not a fact" and has inexplicable "gaps."

This gets me so pissed. If I pass a tourist from Kansas on my way home from work, they're getting a dropkick to the trachea...young, old, it don't matta...F Kansas!
