Hillary Toes the Party Line on School Vouchers

According to Michelle Malkin, Hillary Clinton is "going bananas" over the prospect that school vouchers might allow parents to use taxpayer dough to send their kids to White Supremacist or Jihad schools.  Here is what Hillary had to say:

"First family that comes and says 'I want to send my daughter to St. Peter's Roman Catholic School' and you say 'Great, wonderful school, here's your voucher,'" Clinton said. "Next parent that comes and says, 'I want to send my child to the school of the Church of the White Supremacist ...' The parent says, 'The way that I read Genesis, Cain was marked, therefore I believe in white supremacy. ... You gave it to a Catholic parent, you gave it to a Jewish parent, under the Constitution, you can't discriminate against me.'"

As an adoring, if somewhat puzzled, audience of Bronx activists looked on, Clinton added, "So what if the next parent comes and says, 'I want to send my child to the School of the Jihad? ... I won't stand for it."

This is the typical rap against school vouchers you hear from the liberals, that if parents were given a choice about their kids' schooling they would use it poorly, sending their kids to Witchcraft schools or the like.  The argument, of course, turns on the notion that parents can't be trusted with an important issue like their kids' education, and so we have to let the government make the choices for them.

Me, I think that the vast--vast--majority of parents care very deeply about the quality of the education their kids are getting.  So, I think that if we give "the little people" the right (and the resources) to pick a school for their kids, they will do a better job than Hillary would.
