So does this smell of bribing the Christianists to look the other way on his whorin' by sending big buckets full of taxpayers' dollars to them, or is it just me?
Sen. David Vitter, R-La., earmarked $100,000 in a spending bill for a Louisiana Christian group that has challenged the teaching of Darwinian evolution in the public school system and to which he has political ties. The money is included in the labor, health and education financing bill for fiscal 2008 and specifies payment to the Louisiana Family Forum "to develop a plan to promote better science education."
"Better science education" - riiiiight.
