Can't speak for Z, but I never heard of Soros until the wingers started whining about him. Same with Alinsky. Now the Koch brothers I started to hear about them in the 1970s because of all of the think tanks they founded and/or funded. They have their fingers in just about everything on the Right.

'Z'

How would you feel if your heroes are crumbling in front of your eyes. Rather than admit his misjudgement, Z just has memory lapses. :.)

Bonefish, Z also claimed that he didn't know George Soros until conservatives made a big deal over him.

Did I say that? I don't think so. I remember reading about him cornering the market for the British pound in Time Magazine in a waiting room at the doctor's office in like 1998. I may have said that I didn't know anything about his politics until conservatives made a big deal about him and I didn't know why his politics were a big deal. But he's a bogeyman. He hasn't done nearly the type of things the Kochs have. They're essentially buying entire states.

Conservative Christian group blames falling SAT scores on lack of school prayer

The American Family Association of Kentucky believes school prayer has something to do with SAT scores and the AIDS epidemic.

Right Wing Watch reported that the conservative Christian group recently launched a petition calling for prayer in public schools.

The petition noted that Mississippi and Florida had enacted laws that allowed public prayers to be given at school assemblies, graduation ceremonies and sporting events.

“Prayer was in our schools for over 200 years before the anti-God forces took it out in 1962,” the petition stated. “After prayer was removed from our schools, teen pregnancy went up 500%, STD’s went up 226%, violent crime went up 500% and SAT scores went down for 18 years in a row, opening the door for the AIDS epidemic and the drug culture.”

The Supreme Court has ruled that the First Amendment prohibits public schools from promoting or sponsoring religious activities such as prayers, but there is not a similar prohibition against voluntary student-led religious activities in most circumstances.
