Who's Your Parent A!! (by guest blogger Chad)
Being the firm believers in the old adage, "A rolling stone gathers no moss," the gay rights activists in the liberal bastion of Massachusetts are at it again. Having conquered the issue of gay-marriage (with a little help from the courts), they have now logically moved on to the next edict on, what is assuredly a very... very....... very long list.
Hear ye! Hear ye! Let it be known that thine traditional birth certificates indicating the foul and hetero-normative titles of "Mother" and "Father" shall hanceforth no longer stand and will be banished from the land post haste!!! (With a little help from the courts.)
Honestly, being gay, I really have a hard time siding with people who are on the fight for "gay rights". Nevermind the fact that they totally miss that whole pesky majority rules thing and take all their gripes to the judiciary to decide, but they come up with the most retarded answers to their problems.
Parent A and Parent B?!?!?! Are you joking? Are you trying to kill me by making me choke on my Velveeta Shells & Cheese from laughing at such a ridiculous idea...?? Are these the same geniouses who decided to give us the rainbow and upside down pink triangle as the symbols to champion our cause??
I have a thought. If the crossing out of one of parental titles on the traditional document offends you and you'd prefer to have a pristine, unaltered birth certificate of your child to keep in a shoebox in the attic, how 'bout petitioning your legislature to make a separate one for gay couples indicating both ambiguous parents.
It's bad enough you've force fed gay marriage (which will backfire... huge) down the public's collective throats in that state.... Let's not force the 80,000 children of straight parents to choose which parent is A and which is B for the sake of gay community's fragile ego.

So when do they start referring to the child as Kid A? ;)
Posted by: Shawn at July 27, 2005 12:26 AMI think Gwenyth Paltrow uses that as a nickname for Apple.
Good point though.... Maybe if that was made law we wouldn't have to worry about kids getting made fun of for their ridiculous names nowadays. I'll see about writing a letter to Hillary to see if she can enact legislation for the government to name children like the weather service names hurricanes.
That way, parent A and B wouldn't have to stress and/or fight over it.

Then there's always just calling the kids Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, and Epsilon.
