The Washington Post has a good editorial lambasting the deceptively-named “academic freedom” legislation infection spreading across the country. Florida gets the spotlight. Lucky us.
What’s insidious about these measures is that at first blush they appear so harmless. Isn’t everyone in favor of academic freedom? … Clearly, the strategy is to devise an end run around legal decisions — going all the way to the Supreme Court — that restrict the teaching of creationism in public classrooms.
Not only was that a good editorial, but it drove the Discovery Institute crazy. The Discoveroids, in the person of John West, wrote a furious blog entry about it. So I blogged about West’s blog article. Basically, West is angry that the Post didn’t go for his Kool Aid.
Everyone MUST go see PatrickHenry’s blog! WoW!!!
