[history]
Liberals upset by the Supreme Court's ruling that vouchers are constitutional vow to take the fight against choice to the streets and state capitols. But the truth is this "setback" creates an opportunity for the left to recast the voucher debate in ways that bring more money to poor schools. The question is whether the teachers unions have the imagination at this crossroads to allow new ideas for the children they claim to champion -- as well as for the Democratic presidential aspirants whose agendas they control.

Liberals only send their kids to the *best* schools. They would never dream of sending them to anything less.
They insist on getting the best education for their kids.
And of course, it includes "lip service" to the poor, but since most of these kinds of liberals, they are not poor, but making tons from non-profits, and lawyers fees, etc.
They expect *diversity* but only at a good school where there is virtually no diversity. Most of the *diverse* black students in these good schools are only...1/2 black and living with their white parents.
The poor black kids going to school in your average real diverse school is being subsumed monetarily by the money we are spending on bilingual education(yes, we are still paying huge amounts to keep spanish and chinese kids retarded linguistically in English).
Remember Chelsea Clinton went to Sidwell Friends School where all the good limo liberals send their kids, while advocating for poor minorities, however taking our tax money for their causes as usual for this crowd.
They talk a good game, but they are only interested in enriching themselves so much more insidiously.
Meanwhile the DC schools are in trouble and are awful, so are the streets of DC and every urban city. And the democraps keep saying to *trust* them....ha!
Wasn't it Johnny Rotten (who is conservative btw!) who said..with venom dripping from his mouth "Never trust a liberal!"
I don't.

This is a great issue for Republicans in the fall - if they have the guts to press it.
