The writer stated:
But the DC vouchers were quickly rescinded by the Obama administration because of uncertainty over funding from Congress.
Total BS.
Look, the Democratic congress, on the issues of vouchers, had sold themselves like common prostitutes, to the National Education Assn. They did not want any taxpayer funding to go to private schools, but more importantly, there is an anti-Catholic bias in the Democratic Party.
The vouchers program was ended, so to speak, because of the NEA and anti-Catholic bigotry.
Although the Archdiocese of Washington fought hard, and got this Administration to at least keep its commitment to those who had started the program, everyone now has to suffer -- students, parents and taxpayers.
Hopefully, things will change.

I'm glad you caught that nonsense in the Post. The writer made it sound like Congress and not Obama was the problem. In reality, both Congress and Obama took down the opportunity scholarship program. Obama has the money to send his children to an expensive private school. Others are not so lucky though.It's a shame and an outrage what was done to this relatively small program. Where is the decency of the President of the United States?
Anonymous, I may sound "mean-spirited" for saying this, but there never was any decency in this current occupant of the White House. We just have more proof of that sad fact.
