Congress Ups College Aid. GOP Looks To Repeal Hopey-Changey

"More needy college students will have access to bigger Pell Grants, and future borrowers of government loans will have an easier time repaying them, under a vast overhaul of higher education aid that Congress passed Thursday and sent to President Barack Obama."

I love this quote:

"The Democratic majority decided, well look, while we're at it, let's have another Washington takeover," said Senator Lamar Alexander, Republican of Tennessee and a former federal education secretary. "Let's take over the federal student loan program."

It's the FEDERAL Student Loan Program. You're accusing the Federal Government of running a Federal program. Lamar got used to passing the buck and outsourcing everything under Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld he forgot the Government's responsibilities.
