This week, Hillary Clinton debuted the newest in educational options for our children. The school she referred to is evidently so secret that it doesn't even show up on Google.
Addressing an audience that was predisposed against school vouchers, Hillary went a bit crazy by comparing parents who send their children to parochial schools to those who wish to send their boys and girls to Hillary's new educational invention, the "School of the Church of the White Supremacist." Since the existence of said school is so top secret that only Hillary Clinton knows enough about it to insert it into perhaps the most ridiculous comparison ever made, surely she had a hand in its creation.
In case you missed it, she attempted to unite key constituencies that she believes she will need both this year and in 2008 for her electoral ambitions.
But there is one big problem: If a politician is going to try to get elected in the black community, he cannot take on the subject of vouchers. The numbers betray the truth on this issue: Upward of 70 percent of African Americans favor the educational options that would be at their disposal were they to receive vouchers as opposed to forcing their kids to attend inner-city schools that are in large part neglecting African-American students across the nation.
The reason Hillary must oppose them relates to the fact that she will be in grave need of big campaign money from the teacher's unions and unions hate anything even close to resembling a voucher. It represents failure on their part, and they don't have the big, fat jackpot of taxpayer cash to fund their funky, "Bobby has two mommies" social reprogramming courses that the political wings of such unions are desperate to institute.
So if she can't oppose vouchers for fear of losing black votes, but can't support them or lose union money, how does Mrs. William Jefferson Clinton bridge the divide?
Simple. Just imply that those who use such evil things as vouchers are really puritanical voices who seek to reshape culture in their own image like Catholics and Jews and evangelicals, for example. Lump those groups in with some white supremacists and use "jihad" and you've just about convinced the non-thinking among us to run and out and riot against anyone suggesting the evil vouchers.
At the end of the day, Hillary is placing a bet that she can turn black voters against free-market educational options that would actually improve the education black children receive in America.
But just because she drinks the union Kool-Aid doesn't mean anyone else will.
When I discussed this on my radio show yesterday, my first caller from was Latricia, an African-American woman from South Orange, N.J. Latricia not only didn't flinch at Hillary's comparison of Christians and Jews to racists, she stated that she was more offended that Hillary said repeatedly in her statement that the voucher was something that she as a member of government was "giving" to the family.
Latricia said, "If my understanding is correct, those vouchers are in essence tax refunds of money that belonged to we as taxpayers in the first place. Therefore the presumption should be that it is not Hillary's to give."
Bingo!
Sen. Clinton seems worried about giving such dollars to someone who in the miniscule chance might decide to use it in such an abnormal school as the one that Hillary helped create (the School of the Church of the White Supremacist).
Yet she has little to say about the millions of educational union dollars that are wasted each year in the pursuit of everything but the teaching our kids that 2 plus 2 equals 4.
So sign up today, Hillary's School For Whities, is now open.

Thanks for the links. BTTT!
Run Hillary Run!
Excellent article concerning the latest from the Hildabeast (Hellary, Hitlery, Shrillary, etc.).
But could anyone explain why the world's smartest woman is often referred to as "Cankles" on this website?
Any insight on this particular moniker is welcome. Does it refer to the reason Sen. Clinton always wears pantsuits and is never, but never, to be photographed below the waist?
Just curious.
I would bet that Bill&hill talked the friends into free tuition because of the publicity they would get. Any takers?
the do as I say not as I do thing again.
We have the "we're going to be taking from you to give to someone else" speech, now we have the "we can't give you our money to send your child to your choice of schools" speech.
By election time we should have a pretty good montage of "you are surfs and I am Queen Hillary" quotes to paint her as she is. We certainly don't need to fear Hillary alone as a candidate. Maybe a 3rd party crasher could get her in, but thats about it.
I guess she did! What a dope! Beyond my wildest stupidity imaginations she is. Clearly she's not wise enough to run this diverse Country.
Yes. I retract my assertion. She as sharp as a marble.
Public schools are places for liberal indoctrination, thanks to the NEA and the teacher's unions. And these groups are loyal auxiliaries of the Democrats. Which is why the Democrats cry when the subject of school choice comes up.
Hillary is the female Hugo Chavez.
So much of what is passing for education in the public schools is liberal cultural indoctrination. Under the guise of tolerance and inclusiveness, the public school curriculum teaches a new sexuality based culture. It puts a huge burden on each student to figure out the mystery of his/her own sexual orientation. What a distraction from what American has held traditionally in its educational material.
This is why Hillary hates vouchers. It interferes with this goal. The "Church of the White Supremacist" is merely a foil...a race-baiting one at that. Shame on her for saying that in front of a black audience.

Sounds like Mao's "Great Leap Forward".
Well, Queen Hillary knows best. /sarcasm
Since she has never had a real job what the *ell does she know about anything? Don't believe the crap about her being a super lawyer either. It was a political hack job to funnel money to 'her husband'.
She said it for sure. Check out the video link in Post 21.
"Eluceat omnibus lux" does NOT say "Let knowledge be known to all." It says "Let light illuminate all." Forms are luceo/lucere/luxi (to shine, to be bright, to be clear); omnis (all, of all kinds, every); and lux/lucis of course is the noun "light".
Given that the Quakers traditionally refer to Inspiration as "the Inner Light" . . . I think it is highly unlikely that it has anything to do with knowledge, even figuratively. The school just decided that divine inspiration wasn't their bag, and changed the translation.
Which tells you a lot about their scholarship, and/or their honesty.
70 hours is at least workable. It's not ideal, but when you're young and energetic and can get by on less sleep, it can be done (I typically worked 70 hour weeks as a young lawyer).
But 100 hours is way over the limit at which you start making REALLY stupid mistakes. And with lawyers, it's only money (although that's embarassing enough). With doctors, it's people's lives.
