Tom DeLay, "our" House leader

I find it interesting that we live in a country that will (rightfully) pillory Trent Lott for making stupid remarks, but fully ignores gems like this:

"our school systems teach the children that they are nothing but glorified apes who have evolutionized out of some primordial soup of mud by teaching evolution as fact and by handing out condoms as if they were candy."

Those are Tom DeLay's own words, on his own web site.

What's really annoying is that some of what the rest of what DeLay says is reasonable, e.g. the "nah, it must be the guns" bit, but the rest is goofy conservatism. Yet another reminder to myself that I'm a libertarian, not a conservative.
