But it\u2019s not really a philosophical disagreement; this is a P.R.dustup.<\/p>\n<p>As part of their latest Porkulus spending bill, Democrats slipped in a provision killing off a school voucher program that allowed minority kidsto attend really good schools in DC.This created a P.R. problem for the Obama Administration becausesome of the kids who\u2019d be affectedare classmates of Obama\u2019s daughters at the prestigious Sidwell Friends School.<\/p>\n<p>Oops. In an AP interview, Arne Duncan now says it doesn\u2019t &#8220;make sense to take kids out of a school where they\u2019re happy and safe and satisfied and learning&#8230;those kids need to stay in their school.&#8221; Mr. Duncan also claims that Washington, DC is a &#8220;special case&#8221; when it comes to school vouchers. Duncan, like most self-professed kind-hearted Democrats, opposes vouchers.<\/p>\n<p>Attention, African-American and Hispanic parents living outside Washington, DC:Your kids\u2019 education is expendable! Your children don\u2019t have the right to be happy, safe, satisfied, and learning. They are riffraffwho should be segregated into failing public schools!So the Democrats you vote for to be happy, safe, and satisfied legislatorscan continue telling you they\u2019re fighting for you &#8211;while they continue to ruin your kids\u2019 chances. The only ones not happy&#8230;are those of us who want everyone in America to succeed. Why can\u2019t that be the case with Democrats?<\/p>\n<p>*Note: Links to content outside RushLimbaugh.com usually become inactive over time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rush\u2019s Morning Update: Happy?March 6, 2009Watch It!
