People can't have it both ways--they want the vouchers 'cause then they can
send their kid to whatever school they think is best for their kid and at
the same time say "oh you can't send *your* voucher (and therefore your kid)
to *that* school 'cause that school has a religious basis, and there's that
separation of church and state thingy!"
The sheer irony of curtailing people's freedom 'cause of a religious basis
in a country that says 'in God we trust'... 'Nuff said.
