Good On Them!
WASHINGTON (AP) – House Speaker John Boehner and Sen. Joe Lieberman are introducing legislation to revive a school voucher program for District of Columbia students nearly two years after Congress began phasing out the program.
In a statement Wednesday, Boehner says the D.C. voucher program is a model that can work well in other cities across the nation.
Referring to President Barack Obama’s State of the Union address, Boehner says vouchers make the U.S. education system more competitive.
On Tuesday night, Boehner hosted Cardinal Donald Wuerl at the speech, along with Catholic teachers and students who are receiving public funds to attend private schools through the program.
Washington Mayor Vincent Gray opposes the voucher program as an intrusion into local government.

The profits from this pay all the Gormogons’ bills, including subsidizing this website. Some of the products he has introduced from the future include oven mitts, the Guinness widget, Oxy-Clean, and Dr. Pepper. Due to his immense cybernetic brain, GorT is able to produce a post in 0.023 seconds and research it in even less time. Only ’Puter spends less time on research. GorT speaks entirely in zeros and ones, but occasionally throws in a ڭ to annoy the Volgi. He is a massive proponent of science, technology, and energy development, and enjoys nothing more than taking the Czar’s more interesting scientific theories, going into the past, publishing them as his own, and then returning to take credit for them. He is the only Gormogon who is capable of doing math. Possessed of incredible strength, he understands the awesome responsibility that follows and only uses it to hurt people.
