Back talking E-mailers

Talking back to e-mailers is such fun. Plus, they need the feedback. Last week somebody wrote asking me to sign a petition to “Tell the Texas Legislature not Allow Creationism Textbooks.”

I wrote back and said, “Good Luck, Honey, telling Texans anything!”

The flippant response masks a more serious question—Why should Texans live with what some Iowan believes, anyway? If Texans want to raise their kids believing something that may make them laughing stocks in the scientific community, should I or even the Koch Brothers interfere?

The Bros Koch apparently feel their billions entitle them to an end-run around democracy.

By god, I uphold the right of Texans to put whatever they want in their textbooks!
