[QUOTE]Originally posted by Omega: [QB] Personally, I think that if Jessie Jackson can shut up long enough for the REAL opinion of black people in general to come through, we'll find out that it has more support than you think. Polling data shows that they support it by a vast majority. If the Democrats shoot this one down, they're toast next time around. Unless, of course, Jessie Jackson finds a way to make it look like the GOP did it... OK, here's my prediction: The Democrats screw up the bill horribly, so that it would never work. Or maybe McCain tacks on his stupid bill. Whatever. Somehow, the intent of the bill is destroyed. The GOP has to vote it down. Then the DNP, being the spinmeisters that they have become, blame US, claiming that THEY supported the program all along, but WE shot it down. They'll do this. Why? Because it's their only chance for political survival: to lie. It always has been. Write this down, 'cause it's exactly what'll happen. As for the religious aspects of the bill, you have to realize that it's not really giving money to a school, as such, but giving money to the FAMILY, with limited uses for it. Again, what's the problem with freedom of choice, when it comes to education? I don't give a darn about previous court decisions. The original wording of the Constitution is the higher law, as the Supreme Court would uphold. Look at this another way: If John Overton High School was failing (no clue whether it is or not), I could get a voucher. I could then spend that voucher on homeschool supplies. Does homeschooling constitute a religious school? Not? You can't answer, because you can't know. Do only atheist homeschoolers get vouchers? You have to give the benefit of the doubt, and allow for all possible educational systems. Otherwise, you'll just end up right back with everyone in crappy public schools. You've got to get this: nearly everything Bush proposed allows things to stay the way they are, IF YOU WANT THEM TO. It's all about increasing your choices, and your control over your own life. Why could anyone think this is a bad thing? [/QB][/QUOTE]
