Wanted -- public school superintendent and man of God; preferably same person

That First Amendment-bulldozing message came courtesy of Texas Commissioner of Education Shirley Neeley in Lancaster Aug. 3.

Neeley was speaking at the district's back-to-school convocation, less than one month after its school board had rejected managing Wilmer-Hutchins ISD.

Two months before that, when Neeley took control of the district from its board and scandal-tainted fired superintendent, Neeley filled the superintendency void with Lancaster's assistant superintendent, Eugene Young.

At the Aug. 3 convocation, Neeley said she had picked him in part because she knew he was a man of God.

Gee, I didn't know that was on the job requirement list.
