I wonder how the teacher goonions will react?
Looks like the the Obama girls are following Chelsea Clinton’s path to the hedge fund industry.

No Free Lunch

Maybe they’ll learn to spell Hypocritical…

What’s new.  Obama’s girls attended private school in Chicago.

We can’t expect the Messiah’s children to go to Washington D.C. schools. Those are for the non elites. The NOBAMA’s are elites.

What’s new.

Nothing. Nothing new. No change.
When I heard the words “Sidwell Friends” on the radio this afternoon, it was reminiscent of the old Clinton years. Nothing new at all.

The ruling elite does what it usually does.  Nothing new here.

If govt control of the economy were the way to go, the Soviet Union would be the richest, most powerful nation in the history of the world.

Thanks to Obama, America remains the only country where it is illegal to drill our own oil!

I don’t know how anyone could have called him Snobama.

As much as I do not like Bo and his administration. He would be a fool to send his kids to a public school. His kids would be prime targets for kidnapping or worse. Give they guy a break on this one.

Give they guy a break on this one.

Again, I’ve got no problem with him sending his kids to private schools. It’s the denying the same opportunity to the poor and middle class that smacks of hypocrisy.

Yeah,

You knew this one was coming, but it’s his stance on vouchers, and his sucking up to the unions that have ruined the public schools in this nation, that kills me.

One Big Ass Mistake, America

Fools, public education is for the proletariat, not the bourgeoisie.

“Over the last 15 months, we’ve traveled to every corner of the United States. I’ve now been in 57 states? I think one left to go.”

Looking more and more like the Clinton years warmed over,...

Well,... so much for the Jimmy Carter’s 2nd term theory.

Instead of finding things to attack each other over, why don’t we find areas where we can agree, and find compromise long enough to take a step back and enjoy the recognition of our similarities? 

Then, we can take steps forward in a constructive way, together, to tackle the issues where we really do disagree.

Not much difference between Carter and Clinton.

If govt control of the economy were the way to go, the Soviet Union would be the richest, most powerful nation in the history of the world.

It’ll just be Carter policies with Clintonistas at the helm. Either way, it sure as shit isn’t Hope or CHANGE.

“Over the last 15 months, we’ve traveled to every corner of the United States. I’ve now been in 57 states? I think one left to go.”

I heard an idea, which was floated around, that the Obama kids would be home schooled, with other kids brought in to take part in the merriment.

No Free Lunch

Well,… so much for the Jimmy Carter’s 2nd term theory.

Jimmy Carter’s Misery Index combined with the high moral standards of the Clintonistas!

I think it’s great that Obama’s children are going to public school.  They will no doubt be safer there (President’s children or not) and will receive a much better education than anything they would get at a union-run school.

But what’s hypocritical for Barry is that he doesn’t support Americans in general being empowered to make this same choice:

In July, when he addressed the NAACP’s annual convention, Sen. Barack Obama expressed his devotion to American public schools, vowing he would not “walk away from them” by supporting school-choice programs like Sen. John McCain did.
“What he’s offering amounts to little more than the same tired rhetoric about vouchers,” said Obama. “Well, I believe we need to move beyond the same debate we’ve been having for the past 30 years when we haven’t gotten anything done. We need to fix and improve our public schools, not throw our hands up and walk away from them.”
In October, in the last presidential debate, Obama specifically attacked McCain’s support for the school-choice program in Washington, D.C., which gives 1,900 lower-income students a voucher worth up to $7,500 to attend the private school of their choice—and which McCain wanted to expand to include more students.
“The centerpiece of Sen. McCain’s education policy is to increase the voucher program in D.C. by 2,000 slots,” Obama said derisively. “That leaves all of you who live in the other 50 states without an education reform policy from Sen. McCain. So if we are going to be serious about this issue, we’ve got to have a president who is going to tackle it head-on, and that’s what I intend to do as president.”
In case anyone doubted that he still opposed school-voucher programs, Obama made his position clear in Time magazine just before the election. The magazine asked: “Should parents be given vouchers to enable them to send their children to any school?” Obama answered: “No: I believe that public education in America should foster innovation and provide students with varied, high-quality learning opportunities.”

As a limited-government guy, I whole-heartedly agree that subsidizing education is an appropriate role of government.  But we need to subsidize it in a way that gives parents a choice in their children’s education.  A choice that’s better than “This is your public school and if you don’t like it you can move.”

The purpose of government shouldn’t be to do good, but simply to refrain from doing evil.

I sent my daughter to public school but moved her over to a Catholic High school because the quality of the high school in this area had deteriorated. I used to get into the same argument with Sister Mary Jane each and every year. She always asked me to sign a petition to the NJ Senate to approve vouchers. I always refused and would still refuse today. IMO the voucher program would start deteriorating the private schools. Within five years, some person who had their child kicked out of the school for disciplinary reasons would sue the school. The judges in NJ would of course love this, they would support the parents and state that since Government money is being used for that childs education. The school has to lower their standards and bring the child back to the school. Yada, yada, yada, after 15 years, you would not be able to tell the differnce between a public or private school that took vouchers. An you just wasted 15 years that should have been spent putting pressure on the public school unions to start doing their job. But the MSM and politicians would now have a new scapegoat, those RICH private schools that have now refused to take vouchers because they wanted to maintain their high standards. And the real problems get hidden again, lack of courage by the Politicians or MSM to address a problem instead of looking for a PC person/group to blame.

I sent my kids to public school in their elementary years, it is a good school, I went there myself. When I moved back to GA, I put them in public middle school at a really nice middle school, brand new, high tech. {Side note, the school is across the street from the Atl. Falcons training camp, so they players came over to the school often, gave lots of $$, kids got to watch training} I was o.k with this, but high school was useless. I then moved them both to private school. I think if you can afford it, you should. I just think it is hypocritical to not support vouchers, and then plop your kids in private school. I hope he rethinks this, but I doubt the teacher’s unions will go for it.

For me, but not for thee.

Communism is evil

Ayone notice that Obama was pulling his kid out of gas guzzling SUV in that picture. I’m sure he’s going to be taking his kids to Sidwell Friends in a Prius.

Again, I’ve got no problem with him sending his kids to private schools. It’s the denying the same opportunity to the poor and middle class that smacks of hypocrisy.

And if he offered this opportunity to others it would be socialism…

If people want to send their kids to private school that option is open, they just have to study hard themselves and get good paying jobs…

Religion, the best method to make the masses vote against their interests.

And if he offered this opportunity to others it would be socialism…

Wrong!  The Constitution already offers us equal opportunity; the greedy govt interferes with this equal opportunity in education with a State-managed virtual monopoly, called “public education”.  If we really had equal opportunity education, only those parents who chose the govt schools would have to pay for them through taxation.  The rest of us would be able to spend our money on the schools we chose.

If govt control of the economy were the way to go, the Soviet Union would be the richest, most powerful nation in the history of the world.

Thanks to Obama, America remains the only country where it is illegal to drill our own oil!

Yeah,

All the parents who choose to send their kids to private schools are paying double.

Fng ripoff.

It cost me $32,000 a year for my daughter to go to private boarding school. My son’s school cost $19,000. I was very, very fortunate that I could do this. What is so wrong with school vouchers? Why do libs hate the idea so much? I know why lib pols hate the idea, the union. But why do regular libs hate the idea? Do they not care if their kids go to decent schools or not? I really don’t get it.

dl, because the government/socialist/union controlled schools would be defunded and the $25Billion US “office of Education” would be zeroed out, then all those overpaid “insulters” would not have a “job” and maybe vote for someone else.
