All of your nasty generalizations about Texas are very stupid.

I can understand your feeling this way. I live in Wisconsin and we are labeled obese, cheese eating, beer drinkers. Some of us are. :-)

But explain to me why the Texas Board of Education would even consider doing this? It sounds like the religious right have taken over the board.

The religious right has taken over the Board (half of it, anyway), and that's exactly why they would consider doing this.

Making a derogatory remarks about an entire state with a population of many millions is pretty Dakota-esque if you ask me.

Please tell me you're joking.
I thought Texans took a special pride in their "uniqueness" (read: everything BIG is unique).

Hell, rib us Cawleefornians all you want: we're flakey, can't drive in the rain, etc, etc. It's jokes.

Ribbing I get; jokes are funny. But there's a difference. Should we give you and all other California residents back to Mexico because some in your state voted in favor of Prop 8?

The Texas Board of Education will vote this week on a new science curriculum designed to challenge the guiding principle of evolution, a step that could influence what is taught in biology classes across the nation.

That's a Texas sized pile of mule shit. I live in a civilized part of the nation with this discussion would never rise above an anthill.

I doubt I'd notice much difference here.
¡Andalé!
