Why is Obama punishing Washington D.C. children?

Why is Obama punishing Washington D.C. children? That's right. Step right up liberals and answer this question, because I want an answer. "School choice advocates are trying to save the District of Columbia voucher program, which is targeted for virtual elimination in Congress’ proposed $405-billion omnibus spending bill. The school choice supporters think the termination of the D.C. program could have national significance." http://www.cnsnews.com/public/content/article.aspx?RsrcID=44063 So. Why is Obama and his drone Democrats eliminating school choice for these children who's parents are trying to use a program that will get them out of these crappy government schools? I'll give you a hint and it ryhmes with UNIONS. Obama is paying back his campaign supporters of the teachers unions. So do you liberals agree with this plan? We're talking about the grade school children of Washington D.C.....not college vouchers. Why should they suffer? I thought Obama cared about children. I tried to find one your favorite liberal media outlets for the source, but I couldn't seem to find a story on it. Neat huh? Nice job "daypooper". Bash: You're an idiot. You missed the whole damn point. Obama sends his kids to private schools in Washington....why? Because the public schools suck. Throwing money at school with crime in them doesn't help. Oh, the government does such a good job at education huh? Other - Politics & Government - 4 Answers Random Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions : 1 : What about Faux News. You must spend lots of time watching your guys at Faux News. 2 : When you want to get the best advice on which way to go, you look at the experts for their advice. Ask someone about the medical field, you asked Doctors and Nurses, ask about the car industry, you ask automakers. Ask about education and you ask teachers. And they can tell you exactly why the voucher system is an elitist way to separate the children. Instead of sending them to other schools, they should invest in the school system (which is underfunded by alot), and fix it. 3 : Vouchers hurt the public schools, the public school teachers, and the public school students who didn't get selected for the voucher program. Obviously, you know that pulling money and resources out of a state run school, and placing those monies and resources in a private school would hurt the public school. Since a tiny fraction of students are selected for vouchers, it is YOU who are demanding that we punish the VAST MAJORITY of DC children for the sake of a few lucky ones. 4 : in randy marsh's voice wooooh yea obama celebrate good obama come on its obama bama Which New York acting school would be best for a b...
