This bill is an attempt to gain political favor for Bush and the Republicans by playing the politically correct "education card". Apparantly, they can only see political advantage in caveing on one part of their constituency after the other.
This is yet one more example. Here he is playing the politically correct "diversity card".
Thanks for the post.

President Reagan had to concede, kicking and screaming of course!, on some spending items the "rats of the day" insisted upon, in order to pass his tax-cut/defense buildup legislation.
Perhaps...GWB is reading the 'playbook' one chapter ahead of the 'rats' on this one.?
Afterall...there is a "Greater Mission" to accomplish right now.
