Rep Tim Walberg (MI-7) votes against continuing Head Start August 1, 2008

Why would Walberg, alone among 43 members of his committee, vote against continuing the popular Head Start program? Because he’s in favor of using government funds to discriminate, of course:

In other words, say a Baptist or a Catholic church wanted to continue to offer its Head Start program and a Muslim or “a Wiccan from a coven in Ann Arbor” wanted to apply for a job to teach there, now it couldn’t discriminate based on religious grounds anymore, or vice versa.

Dear Rep. Walberg: thank you for admitting that what you want is for private groups to use government money while to descriminate in their hiring practices. It’s so damn honest of you.

But would you be equally upset if a humanist group was being forced to hire Baptists?
