Good questions – I think this has more to do with “love families” and the “rainbow family” ideology. If you feel like a father or a man then you are. Sounds very Berkeley, California.

It is always the traditional family they throw under the bus first. Obama is the strangest “Christian” in the world.

I like to send my Parent One flowers on Parent One Day.

Nah, that doesn't work for me.

Good call.

(Side note: I see that Allahpundit over at Hot Air is defending “Parent One” and “Parent Two” socialists. His arguments are bizarre.Guess biology and history are politically incorrect.)

As a professional tax preparer, I was remarking to a colleague this afternoon that, given this example, I am just waiting for the tax code to change “Qualified Widow(er)” to “Qualified Parent 1”. That rolls ever so tripingly off of the tongue, does it not?

PC Speak has gone from a nuisance to a plague!
