1:53 PM me: so
you may have heard about Texas
and its new regulations regarding Thomas Jefferson
BushwickBK.com: actually, no
1:54 PM me: the Texas School Board passed new textbook criteria last week
taking Thomas Jefferson out of the history books they'll be buying
1:55 PM and listing Thomas Aquinas and John Calvin as people whose writings most contributed to the American revolution
anywho
I'm the dir of comm for that atheist PAC still
the one I went on Fox News for that one time
and I e-mail our president, Ellen Johnson, who's a fanatic, capitalizes the word "atheist" and all that
1:56 PM BushwickBK.com: gawd
me: and I'm like, "Hey, we should run some press releases telling Texas students that Thomas Jefferson is too risque and controversial for them to learn about according to the powers that be"
and she writes back the following
Do you know what would be better than all that? It would be to get Atheists on that Texas Board of Education. EnlightenTheVote.com is supposed to do that very thing. Everything else is a waste of time. You have to take over the school board. THAT is the answer.
1:57 PM So, I'm basically being asked to take over the Texas Board of Education and replace it with atheists
BushwickBK.com: jeez she's as nutty as a zealous libertarian
me: when I'm done, I'll try to get an atheist elected ayatollah in Iran
BushwickBK.com: yeah too bad you don't hve Molly ivins aroudn anymoe to help you
me: Yeah
1:58 PM Hey, you know what will help to get Texas textbooks reformed?
associating the effort with ATHEISM
BushwickBK.com: haha
me: also keep in mind that our PAC has no money
so, anyway
1:59 PM I guess I'll try to recruit some protest candidates who can at least bring attention to the irreligious beliefs of many of our Founders
BushwickBK.com: seems Texans already know about it
2:00 PM me: my old friend is a producer at an NBC affiliate that serves East Texas, says he'll have me on if I do a press release
BushwickBK.com: which is why they left the evil athiest slaverapist out
me: yeah, that's one particularly amusing point I'd like to emphasize
that this basically shows that they know fully well that some of the crucial Founders were not exactly Southern Baptists
2:01 PM anywho, wish me luck in getting the Texas Board of Education packed with atheists!
I mean, Atheists!
2:02 PM BushwickBK.com: you have my support
I'll fight to the...something with you
me: I appreciate it
2:04 PM maybe I can find some atheists down there who are also communists as well
and black
BushwickBK.com: another thing texans like
me: oh, and gay
2:05 PM BushwickBK.com: well you won Austin at least
me: yeah, I could run Trotsky in Austin and win
Trotsky's corpse
BushwickBK.com: haha
icepick still firmly in place
me: lol
