razzleccentricHave you seen this? I mean, seriously, this jackass jerkwad really believes what he wrote??? No. It's got to be some kind of horrible, horrible joke.
A Georgia state representative (yes, Republican, how predictable), sent out THIS MEMO to a bunch of other Repub reps (including one in Texas) stating that he has "Indisputable evidence — long hidden but now available to everyone — demonstrates conclusively that so-called ‘secular evolution science’ is the Big-Bang 15-billion-year alternate ‘creation scenario’ of the Pharisee Religion... This scenario is derived concept-for-concept from Rabbinic writings in the mystic ‘holy book’ Kabbala dating back at least two millennia.”
So, yeah. Evolution is actually a religious teaching whipped up by the Jews that run the world. THAT'S how we can stop it from being taught in schools. Halleluijah!
But look - added bonus codswallop! "[T]he earth is not rotating … nor is it going around the sun." (This is the part that tipped somebody off that the memo might not be 100% factual.)
In case you're wondering where these paid political representatives of the people got this amazing revelation, it would be from this incredibly professional and obviously wrought-with-truth website. HORK.
For reference, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution article about this horseshit and J.M. Marshall's Talking Points Memo on the subject.
My anger overwhelms my phlegm.
PS - Chisum is not at all apologetic for spreading this crap.
Mr. Chisum said all he thought he was doing was "a Good Samaritan" deed for a fellow legislator. "If that's a sin, well, shoot me."
Not enough heads, not enough desks.
