Baa Baa Rainbow Sheep?

Brit Hume reports on revisionist nursery rhymes being taught in Oxfordshire, England:
Some nursery schools in Oxfordshire, England, have taken offense to classic nursery rhymes like, "Baa Baa Black Sheep" so they're teaching children to sing, "Baa Baa, Rainbow Sheep," instead. The Times of London reports teachers have also dropped the seven dwarfs from the title of "Snow White," and changed the ending of Humpty Dumpty — letting all the king's men put Humpty back together again after all. The manager of two area nursery schools says he's just promoting equal opportunity, saying, "No one should feel pointed out because of their race, gender, or anything else."
Chances are the Old Woman in the Shoe will end up on birth control and food stamps, and the Three Blind Mice will be miraculously healed thanks to stem cell research.
