OK, it is confirmed that I will not be moving my family to Texas anytime soon. Just knowing that I could be within a few hundred miles of thousands of people complacent enough to vote in a dolt like Chisum is enough to make me write the place off, barring a pretty stong argument otherwise. Sure, OK, Austin might be a "cool" place to live, but so are plenty of other places not wholly surrounded by fools.
"You ought to teach creation as well as the fact of evolution," Mr. Chisum said, though he said "all of those kinds of sciences have holes in them. ... But I'm not about teaching religion in schools."
Wow. Can he be so ignorant that he really can't see the problem in this statement?
Thanks to Pharyngula for the heads-up.
