Boehner Porks Jesus

http://act.credoaction.com/campaign/boehner_pet_project/?rc=share_email

Tell Senate Dems: Block Boehner's $300 million pet project to subsidize private religious schools

As John Boehner leads Republicans in slashing funding for the Clean Air Act, Planned Parenthood, public broadcasting and other vital programs, only one bill is so important to the Speaker that he attached his own name to it and pushed it through the House.

Speaker Boehner's pet project? More than $300 million spent on just 1,700 private school students enrolled in the District of Columbia's decaying voucher program.

1. The Right Wingers always use DOC for their experiments with schools
Social engineering school experiments.

Boehner is such an obvious doosh. The more obvious the better I say.

Some people need to have the truth shown like Kabuki theater. Even in the back far back you can understand the story by the dramatic gestures in Kabuki.

3. Let's see, that would be...
...$300,000,000 divided by 1,700 students... with the decimal rounded....$176,471 per student!

Might as well just put the money in a trust fund for them - call it Social Security - and it will grow enough to provide for them their entire adult lives.

4. So, he's declaring a national religion?
This won't jive, and there will be a nice VETO around the corner.
