This is the most revealing item on this list, exposing the selling out of the liberal soul to a special interest group, the almighty teachers' union. Nobody credibly argues that poor young kids (blacks or whites) are being adequately served by the status quo, and this (vouchers) seems like little enough to try to improve the status quo. But, true liberals won't give an inch on vouchers, not because they won't work, but because they might weaken the divine stranglehold of the teachers' unions on the flow of government/education dollars (and with it, power). Ah, such altruistic people should be given greater decision and policy making responsibility. What about the pro-choice party, indeed?
