Sebelius: Teach Science in Science Class
"I've always believed that science should be taught in science classrooms," Gov. Kathleen Sebelius said following a rally Tuesday morning for Topeka public school employees, according to Chris Moon of the Topeka Capitol Journal.
"I think religion is taught in religion classes and humanities classes and science is taught in science classes," Sebelius added.
Sebelius' right-wing Republican opponent in the November election, Emporia Sen. Jim Barnett, apparently, is still pushing a failed talking point -- that the science standards don't mention either creationism or intelligent design.
"If creationism and intelligent design aren't in there, let's be factual about that."
Right-wing Republicans like Barnett have successfully used code words to get their message across to the ranks so long that they seem to be in denial about the fact that we all have the decoder ring now.
