Latest dumb thing to make a big deal about...

Prager was at his pompous best this morning, instructing us how "the left" doesn't care about the consequences of their actions. In this case, the action is pushing for gay marriage and the consequences are unutterably DIRE. You could hear in his voice how grave this situation is.

Get ready for the dire consequences of our actions: passport applications will have "Mother" and "Father" spaces changed to "Parent 1" and "Parent 2". :scared:

The words “mother” and “father” will be removed from U.S. passport applications and replaced with gender neutral terminology, the State Department says.

“The words in the old form were ‘mother’ and ‘father,’” said Brenda Sprague, deputy assistant Secretary of State for Passport Services. "They are now ‘parent one’ and ‘parent two.’"

A statement on the State Department website noted: “These improvements are being made to provide a gender neutral description of a child’s parents and in recognition of different types of families.”

The statement didn't note if it was for child applications only.

The State Department said the new passport applications, not yet available to the public, will be available online soon.
