I don't think it's over yet
From the tone of some of the board members, they're going to go for a slow attack on evolution. And they control the textbooks and the curriculum. The intention is to create enough doubt amongst the scientifically illiterate and let other media do the rest. Never mind that the Theory of Evolution has solid evidence beyond fossils and is the only theory about speciation vaguely approaching credibility.
Still, much better than officially sanctioning ID.

Choose Life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a fucking big television, choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol, and dental insurance. Choose fixed interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisurewear and matching luggage. Choose DIY and wondering who the fuck you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing fucking junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fucked up brats you spawned to replace yourself. Choose your future. Choose life... But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life. I chose somethin' else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you've got heroin?
