Constricting Supply

Speaking of stupid, in case anybody's still wondering what's wrong with President Bush's "faith-based" initiative here's another gem from CNN.

With the nation facing a critical shortage of teachers in general, and an especially acute shortage of qualified child care workers, all we don't need to be doing is constricting the supply even more!

You gotta wonder why the church agencies which "deliver" the Head Start "service" are concerned about the religious affiliation (or lack thereof) of their staff, if they're not just using the program as a sham or front for religious instruction, funded by Uncle Sam.

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
