The diversity argument, like the Roberts Court's "color blindness," is transparent BS but strangely effective in some quarters. These people would no more tolerate a teaching of Islamic cosmology than satanic ritual.Granthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17160568834659305520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2506514005426983269.post-34937442789775648162010-02-04T13:59:52.037-06:002010-02-04T13:59:52.037-06:00I could understand the casual indifference if thes...I could understand the casual indifference if these people were running for something other than a public school board.illusory tenanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08524761974822871419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2506514005426983269.post-45273027007826355502010-02-04T13:02:37.461-06:002010-02-04T13:02:37.461-06:00If nothing else, it's fun watching dear Mr. Ro...If nothing else, it's fun watching dear Mr. Robinson et al feign open-mindedness.

Spend another three months rewriting them?

And now the last excuse for that BS - maintaining market share - has exploded. Like <a href="http://xark.typepad.com/my_weblog/2009/05/editing-pontins-manifesto.html" rel="nofollow">this guy</a> says:<br /><br />"If you're a newspaper editor trying to figure out what to do, think less about unbundling your content and more about unbundling your metro geography and its communities of interest. <br /><br />"If you offered me a local newspaper (online and in print) that was written and edited for people with my worldview and interests, I'd be much more likely to love it. Editing the same story for rational people AND people who don't believe in evolution is a great way to make everyone unhappy."Granthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17160568834659305520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2506514005426983269.post-71666486847464138802010-02-04T10:57:04.424-06:002010-02-04T10:57:04.424-06:00Judge Jones's opinion is an excellent example ...Judge Jones's <a href="http://www.pamd.uscourts.gov/kitzmiller/kitzmiller_342.pdf" rel="nofollow">opinion</a> is an excellent example of how trial judges should write opinions in cases like this. He is careful, sensible, and deals properly with each of the issues of the case (and tells the prosecutor that a few people should have been indicted for lying during the events in question, though the prosecutor failed to do anything about this misbehavior). Unlike Scalia, he understands that an assertion is not an argument.Free Lunchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12272965187978654322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2506514005426983269.post-84113681482141843282010-02-04T10:13:17.460-06:002010-02-04T10:13:17.460-06:00Buy Wisconsin.<a href="http://www.trekbikes.com/us/en/bikes/" rel="nofollow">Buy Wisconsin</a>.illusory tenanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08524761974822871419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2506514005426983269.post-45489193209740371092010-02-04T09:49:16.913-06:002010-02-04T09:49:16.913-06:00West Bend creationists ran amok in '82
