Silver screen follies

May 8th, 2006 Black Ops Posted in Commentary |

WE HERE AT DARWIN CENTRAL just can’t help ourselves. What can we say? We just loooove our favorite darling bureaucreationists, Kathy Martin and Connie Morris. Love them at the top of our lungs. Any old excuse to gaze lovingly at them will do just fine.

But then they always, you know, open their mouths and say something really stupid, and we’re reminded that our love for them is the same sort of love that one feels for Bozo the Clown, where that loveable old clown can always be counted on to brighten up your day by taking a pie in the face.

And so it was with great joy that we learned, courtesy of the Lawrence (KS) Journal-World, that the two co-captains of the Wackiest Ship School Board in the Army Country were going to be doing a great deal of gum-flapping in the very near future, thanks to a soon-to-be-released documentary film on the Kansas evolution hearings. Yes, you read that right, folks - the Kath’n'Con show is taking its act to the big screen. And we just can’t wait.

Oh, we’re simply breathless with anticipation. It doesn’t even matter to us whether the film has a wildly pro-creationist slant (although, to be fair, it sounds relatively balanced at this point, but we shall see). No, that doesn’t matter - we’ll be perfectly happy with a film that does nothing more than give them plenty of screen time, given how adept they are at pieing themselves in the face. It’s the sure-fire comedy smash of the summer. And we are once again reminded that people, by and large, get the sort of government they deserve. Hello, Kansas!
