ID Lawsuit?
Word is going around in Topeka that Kansas ID activist John Calvert, a retired attorney, is talking about filing a lawsuit over the school board's decision to throw out the ID-inspired standards he had a hand in writing in 2005.
There's some talk -- RSR hasn't been able to confirm it yet -- that the executive session called just before the standards vote was to discuss the possibility of a lawsuit -- in other words to put additional pressure on board members just before the vote.
If that's true, they certainly didn't crack.
Guess that means all that ID trash talk about how wrong it was for parents to use the courts to rid the Dover schools of the ID statement is now inoperative.
