FL Senate to open funding for “white flight” in education

This is my official reaction to the news today that the FL Sen

Senate moves to end separation of church and state

The separation of church and state has been in Florida’s constitution for more than a century.

But that might this fall under a proposal approved by a Senate committee this morning that could go before voters on the November ballot.

Why call it “white flight”? As Martin Luther King stated in 1960 the most segregated hour in American is 11 am on Sunday morning. This statement was reiterated by then Senator Barack Obama and it is commonly held as true. So, the goal is to expand the most segregated hour in America across all hours of the week. This is just shameful. We are Americans.

1. I wonder how all of these RW Christians will feel when Muslim schools start taking voucher money

and Hindu schools and Buddist schools.

Then you might start seeing them appreciate the value of keeping government and religion separate.

2. No kidding. I'm just waiting for the Church of Satan schools.

Maybe they can branch out to Colorado Springs.
