Pa. Voters Ouster Weasel 'Intelligent Design' Advocates

I am happy to see that the residents of Dover, Pennslyvania, have exercised some "intelligent design" of their own, whereas the State Board of Education in Kansas deserves the Weasel Award for "Most Weaseliset Behavior."

A CBS/AP article, via CBS News, reports that:

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.

The election unfolded amid a landmark federal trial involving the Dover public schools and the question of whether intelligent design promotes the Bible's view of creation. Eight Dover families sued, saying it violates the constitutional separation of church and state.
