What, You Mean the Money Won't Only Go to Jeebus?

Legislators in Louisiana have just realized that when they voted for Governor Bobby Jindal's school voucher program, that they voted to fund Muslim schools as well:

Rep. Valarie Hodges, R-Watson, says she had no idea that Gov. Bobby Jindal’s overhaul of the state’s educational system might mean taxpayer support of Muslim schools.

“I actually support funding for teaching the fundamentals of America’s Founding Fathers’ religion, which is Christianity, in public schools or private schools,” the District 64 Representative said Monday.

“I liked the idea of giving parents the option of sending their children to a public school or a Christian school,” Hodges said.

Hodges mistakenly assumed that “religious” meant “Christian.”
So I guess that she opposes giving vouchers to Yeshivas as well.

Also, this is a very, VERY stupid person.
