Rob Reiner leaves California preschool commission
Blaming "personal attacks", money-losing movie director Rob "Meathead" Reiner has stepped down from California's preschool commission:
Just two weeks ago, Reiner dismissed suggestions that he should step down from the California First 5 Commission, which has collected nearly $4 billion in tobacco taxes to fund early childhood programs. "Everything I've done is completely legal," he said at the time.

I'm sure he is using these initiatives to build a base, mostly of teachers' unions and their dollars, in the hopes that one day he will (shudder) run for governor. Governor Meathhead anyone?
