Texas Board of Education to introduce new math standards
The new rules include...

Pi will be exactly 3.

Inequalities will be banned from being taught. If we teach kids inequalities, then they will know the following; Number of votes that socialist Muslim Obama got > Number of votes McCain got and Number of pro-choicers > Number of pro-lifers.

Only absolute numbers. No more on the fence, morally relativist numbers anymore.

No more logic, logic goes against what Dunbar and McElroy are saying.

And more.

6. Better than what I would have said

5. No more "imaginary numbers"
Such as i which is the square root of -1. Everybody knows that a negative number can't have no square root!

7. "One through nine, no maybes, no supposes, no fractions..."
"You can't travel in space, you can't go out into space, you know, without, like, you know, uh, with fractions - what are you going to land on - one-quarter, three-eighths? What are you going to do when you go from here to Venus or something? That's dialectic physics."

9. No moving decimal points to the left when dividing by 10, because the left is Socialist.
