Conservative Actress : Obama Admin ‘Bunch of Bullies’ Who Are ‘Out of Touch’
Since actress Stacey Dash has gone public with her conservative points of view — namely endorsing Mitt Romney for president last year — she’s come under a volley of criticism from the left.
But that hasn’t shut her up.
At issue for Dash right now is Attorney General Eric Holder who, along with other federal officials, are suing the state of Louisiana over its voucher system — the suit seeks to block the state from issuing new tuition vouchers in some districts under desegregation orders, according to Fox News.
But the program opens the door for about 8,000 students from low-income families in school districts graded C, D or F to use public money to attend private schools, costing the state about $45 million per year, Fox News reports.
Louisiana’s Republican Governor Bobby Jindal — along with former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, also a Republican — are demanding the Justice Department back down…and now Dash is joining the fight.
“I just think it’s absurd,” Dash tells FOX411. “The natural evolution of a well-educated populous is integration, and for them to deny a child a better education because of the color of their skin is ludicrous and defeating the purpose. It shows just how out-of-touch this administration is with their own people that they say they want to help…This is not 1965.”
“This is proof to me that this administration is a bunch of bullies,” Dash noted. “They need to drop these charges.”
“The school system has become a part of this huge government machine, governed by people who aren’t close to the situation. That’s why I’m a Republican. I believe in small government. That’s what I am fighting for with this country,” Dash said. “The government is just too big and we have to make it smaller, people are getting lost.”
While Dash supported Romney in the 2012 election, she says she voted for Obama in the 2008 election…and not for particularly political reasons.
“I didn’t know anything about [Obama] when I voted for him in 2008. My choice to do so was purely because he was black. Naively, I thought he would be the right person for the job but unfortunately it didn’t turn out that way,” Dash explained. “Obama had the opportunity to really unite this country in such a profound way, but instead he has done the opposite. We are so divided right now, everything has become about race, more than I’ve ever known in my lifetime.”
Wild Thing’s comment.………….
I have a ton of respect for Stacey because she is obviously thinking instead of following the sheep in Hollywood and she endures a lot of hate! Thanks Stacey for speaking the truth. That takes courage!
Holder and others in the Obama Regime don’t want low income kids to get a good education. Their goal is to keep low income people uneducated so they continue to rely of Democrats for handouts and this the Democrats are able to keep them in economic slavery.
The Federal Government has gotten too involved in education. Since that has happened, education levels in America have continually dropped to where we’re behind many their world nations in education.
Exactly Bob. Carter left us with to gigantic intrusive govt. agencies. The Dept of Education and Dept of Energy. One fails to educate, the other has never delivered one barrel of oil.
Stacey Dash sure is an honest and moral young gal.
