...up?!

...funding for the Department of Education is up 58% in the first three years of Bush's term and is set to rise further under the budget he proposed in January.
:eek:

That's insane! I mean, it's good, but why? How? Huh? Just for reference...
It's already gone up more under Bush than it did during all of Clinton's eight years...
and yet...
The Bush budget itself projects that 200,000 will lose child care -- over the next five years -- if Bush's proposed freeze in child-care funds is approved and continued through 2009. And the liberal Center on Budget and Policy Priorities estimates that the true figure would turn out to be 365,000 children.
Why? What care are they specifically refering to?
