Oops, must have read the polls.
Amazing how the King is able to pander to both sides at once.
“controversial”
Only with the help of the DNC and the Teacher’s Union could a program that does a better job of educating children, with less money, be considered “controversial”.
Maybe if they held a class on fitting condoms to bananas, it would be less “controversial”.
Sheesh.
They still want Black people on to stay on the plantation. They'll just lie about it this year and then next year, cut the legs out from under us while we're asleep. I hate this man. I really really hate him.
Shameful! Not allowing new participants is an assurance of failure for these children.
Ironic that the voting bloc that supported him most overwhelmingly (blacks) are the ones that may be most harmed by his policies.
So public pressure actually worked this time?
The DC voucher program has been wildly successful:

talk about a CYA move...man I hate this guy
Since the Obama daughters both attend a private school, it would be politically foolish and embarrassing to deprive poor children in DC from attending private schools.
This will go a long way toward making both sides trust him!
Obama is doing this because his daughters classmates would be hurt and they might dislike his girls because of his pay to play to teachers unions.

Its also providing a challenge to President Barack Obamas education policies thats as close to home as his daughters classrooms.
Another expiration date passed.
This is so her can seem to be their MESSIAH!
So, he’ll harm families and children later, rather than right now.

$12 Million for one school year? How many kids are using the voucher program? I’m all for it but that seems like someone is putting some in a pocket somewhere....
Vacillator in Chief bows to polls.
I stand corrected - 1700 kids at $7500 a pop....I apologize.
Barack 0bama doesn’t like black people.
All he’s done is keep the program going until all the students have graduated, which is great. Then the program will be discontinued completely.
