In this "must see" video by Reason TV, recipients of the DC Opportunity Scholarships -- Obama supporters, mind you -- directly ask the president why he is allowing their scholarships to be taken away. What Obama and his Democratic allies in Congress are doing is utterly unconscionable. It borders on outright evil. I bet this pathetic president does not have the guts to look these kids in the eye and explain to them why he's letting their scholarships disappear.

Poor saps. They haven't yet realized that it isn't what is fair that matters, it's what The One thinks is fair or what furthers his social agenda.

These kids need to SACRIFICE for the greater good (i.e., unions), just like Chrysler bondholders.

Someone will pay up to shut them up and this will be blown up as the way American's are supposed to take care of our disadvantaged.
