Texas creationists LOSE! Woo hoo!

Proponents of an amendment that would mandate teachers explain the
"strengths and weaknesses" of the theory of evolution to Texas high school
students suffered a blowing defeat Thursday morning, when the measure
failed during a preliminary vote. The vote was 7-7 and the amendment needed
a simple majority in order to pass.

The Texas Freedom Network, an organization that has been fighting against
teaching the "strengths and weaknesses" evolution called the vote "a
victory for sound science in the state of Texas," on its blog just minutes
after the vote.
