Cheerleaders to remain Bootylicious
By Karl-Thomas Musselman
News 8 Austin reports that Rep. Al Edwards (D-Can't Handle It) Bill to ban sexually suggestive high school routines has dead ended in the Senate.
Sen. Florence Shapiro, R-Plano, said her education committee has more important things to consider.
Rep. Al Edwards, D-Houston, had won approval of his bill in the House. He said sexually suggestive routines in high schools are distractions that result in pregnancies, dropouts and the contraction of AIDS and herpes.
Shapiro said standards should be decided by parents and school districts.
Edwards acknowledged that his measure was probably dead for this legislative session, but he vowed to bring it up again.
I'm glad that the Education Committee has more important things to do. Apparently the Hate Affairs Committee does not.
