The Texas State Board of Education had a meeting on Wednesday, and Cynthia Dunbar lived up (or down) to my low expectations of her by misrepresenting a Nobel Prize winner’s views of evolution.

Don’t remember who Cynthia Dunbar is? Here’s a refresher:

She calls public education a “subtly deceptive tool of perversion.” The establishment of public schools is unconstitutional and even “tyrannical,” she writes in the book, because it threatens the authority of families, granted by God through Scripture, to direct the instruction of their children.

Dunbar, who has home-schooled her children and sent them to private schools, questions the constitutionality of public schools and believes that “the underlying authority for our constitutional form of government stems directly from biblical precedents.”

But if you really want to crawl inside her head, a place that seems terrifying to me, read my post on what she had to say about Obama.

Yes, this person, who thinks public schools are evil and unconstitutional and who apparently has many other odd ideas rattling around in her skull, sits on the Texas State Board of Education. Sad, isn’t it?
