Your Mom (or, um, Other)

More tragedy has hit the sun-shine state with the signing of a bill that apparently bans your mom.

Worldnetdaily.com reports,

"Mom and Dad" as well as "husband and wife" effectively have been banned from California schools under a bill signed by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, who with his signature also ordered public schools to allow boys to use girls restrooms and locker rooms, and vice versa, if they choose."

This is just weird.

The article also points out,

"Analysts have warned that schools across the nation will be impacted by the decision, since textbook publishers must cater to their largest purchaser, which often is California, and they will be unlikely to go to the expense of having a separate edition for other states."

I can tell you that this is true. Textbooks are big time political business. Actually, education is a big business. It just is. I'm sorry if you are in shock and awe over this notion. Don't hate the messenger!

And let's face it, California is a big state. They buy a lot of textbooks. And textbooks cost money.

This will impact the nation.
