Wait, what? I am unfamiliar with this feeling.
Idaho Gov. C. L. "Butch" Otter vetoed legislation Tuesday that would have expressly permitted the use of the Bible in public school instruction, calling the measure unconstitutional.
Republican Gov. Butch Otter did ... something reasonable?
Idaho public school students are already allowed to reference the Bible and other religious texts in their studies, but the rejected legislation specifically mentions the Bible, stating the book could be used for reference purposes in subjects such as literature, history, music and world geography.
Even the state's attorney general called the bill unconstitutional, to be sure, but a Republican governor rejecting a theocratic bucket of slop merely because it went against his state's constitution still seems nigh-on unheard of. On the contrary, Republicans have regularly demanded government do blatantly unconstitutional things in order to prove that they super-duper love Jesus.
How ... strange. Did Big Constitution get to him?
