Silly me. I thought "the crime" was that he has who received the most  
concentrated wealth giving millions to support dismantling American  
schools and encouraging that evolution be replaced with intelligent  
design.

Note the Gates Foundation gave 9.3 Million in a single gift to the  
Discovery Institute, and you will find Bill & Melinda as hosts at  
their major events. In her spare time, Melinda graciously volunteers  
at that  conservative think-tank operations aimed at the destruction  
of public schooling, which these richest parents on the planet have  
found "obsolete".

Listening to Gates on education is like listening to Norquist on  
Medicare.
