This is bizarre. How can they award a million dollars in legal fees (with $2 million more pending) in a technical legal dispute about the appropriateness of a particular item in the curriculum? What exactly was the policy re intelligent design that led to this lawsuit? I thought damages or financial penalties were only awarded when there was some kind of liability issue involved, some tangible harm that was done.

Nope, Congress passed a law requiring these legal fees be rewarded. Something the Dems did for their special interests groups, but the GOP has done nothing about it.
