History books record contributions by gays but their sexual orientation is often ignored, a situation gay activists say is inexcusable in California,

Here, here! It's about time, if you ask me.

And while they're at it, I demand textbooks that recognize the historical contributions of meat eaters, certified public accountants, and owners of cats.

To ignore these people is to relegate them to second class status, and especially in a state like California that has such a significant population of meat eaters, certified public accountants, and owners of cats.

It's simply inexcusable.

As opposed to the annoying trend of when the history books say, "President Grant, known homosexual" or "Sacajawea, open lesbian."

Yea. I hate that.

If I gotta add a sarc tag, you ain't paying attention.

ah the infamous Sheila Kuehl. While Dobie was tracking down Thalia Menninger.....Zelda was on the carpet.


Dobie Gillis' fault.

The fact that this is even a viable "battle" for the pro-homosexual viewpoint reveals how far we've fallen; particularly the West Coast.

I see a combination of massive earthquakes, tsunamis, and widespread mudslides hitting CA as judgment. Yes, it will be judgment if that happens. Condolences to Freepers who live there or with relatives there.

If the bill by Democratic state Sen. Sheila Kuehl, the Legislature's first openly gay member, becomes law, it would have a national effect because California is the biggest U.S. market for school textbooks, England said.

Repeated for emphasis. Texas is at least the 2nd largest market.

By all means let's share with the children all the sexual sins of every person in history. What a fabulous idea. The more degrading the better. That way the kids can learn all sex is equal. How charming. What a fine use of the power of government.

Might I point our who will likely be reaping the financial rewards of all those newly written pro-gay materials. Likely it will be the homosexual activist pals who donate to Madame Kuehl, the lesbian. Perhaps we need to always put that after her name so history won't forget that she likes to have abnormal sex with other women. It's so relevant you know.

>>>Dobie Gillis' fault.<<<

Bears repeating. I always thought Dobie was a little light in the loafers.....

Then he goes and gets lost on an island with two of the hottest babes on TV, and he completely ignores them?!

Maybe, if he'd just paid a little more attention to Zelda at a critical time in her life, she wouldn't have turned lesbian, and we wouldn't have these hair-brained statutes being hashed out in the legislature.

Just my theory.

California school textbooks would highlight the role gays have played in the history of the nation's most populous state

How about highlighting some of the real history and telling the part homosexuals have played in turning San Francisco and the various branches of the government of California moral cesspools?

Wrong! It is always ignored because the sexual orientation of contributors to history is of no interest to anyone. I'm beginning to lose patience with the paranoia of the gay activists.

From "Vigilantes of California, Idaho, & Montana"

By John W. Clampitt in 1891

It was, indeed, an ungloved iron hand that, in the homes of these early pioneers, first upheld the pillars of society and put to death the disturbers of the public peace in the absence of an organized form of government. They reasoned, however, that the institution of government for a people is that the governed may obtain security of life and property; that without such safeguard social order could not exist; society would be anarchy, and the law of right would be that of might.

Actually, it wasn't Dobie who got marooned on Gilligan's Island. That was Maynard G. Krebs.

I'm old enough to remember Zelda when she was young, she was a dog then too, and Dobie wouldn't have looked at her anyway. Remember what Limbaugh says about feminists and lesbians: they're that way because no man would have them.

Which is a myth, IMO.
