The unemployment rate right now is about 5.6%. When Bill Clinton was president the media portrayed this unemployment rate as "low." Now that there's a Republican in the White House you hear a different tune.

You've heard of baby boomers, haven't you? Your grandparents may be baby boomers. These are people who were born in the years immediately following World War II. Well, these baby boomers will be ready to retire in about three years. When they retire their jobs just don't go away. The companies who own these jobs will need new workers to fill them. Now ... here is something you need to share with your teacher and your classmates: When these baby boomers start leaving these jobs there will only be enough qualified workers to fill one-half of them.

Fundamental Islamic Jihadists are determined to destroy Western secular society ... a society they see as evil. They will kill innocent people to accomplish their goals. They killed 200 innocent people in Spain last week, and toppled the Spanish government. They have made it clear that they intend to attack America again .. and to kill as many of us as possible. What if they manage to smuggle a chemical, biological or, God forbid, nuclear weapon into our country, Barrett? Can you imagine watching the TV with your parents one evening and seeing reports of 40,000 people dead in one of our major American cities from a terrorist attack using these horrible weapons? A low 5.6% unemployment rate would seem pretty insignificant then, wouldn't it?

JOHN KERRY CAUGHT IN A NEW LIE ... MAKE THAT LIES
This is going to be a common theme throughout this election, and the Bush campaign needs to seize on this right away. Not only does the Democratic nominee for president switch positions as he sees fit, but Senator John Kerry just tells outright lies. That's right; when the truth doesn't suit his purpose, he just concocts something that does. Do you think the mainstream media would let a Republican get away with something like that? Of course not.
Today's tall tale centers on none other than the brutal communist dictator 90 miles off the Florida coast, Cuban President Fidel Castro. While pandering for Hispanic votes in Sunday's Miami Herald, Kerry said "I'm pretty tough on Castro, because I think he's running one of the last vestiges of a Stalinist secret police government in the world. And I voted for the Helms-Burton legislation to be tough on companies that deal with him" Sounds like pretty much the same thing as President Bush, right? Well, the newspaper did a little digging, and once again, Kerry's past comes back to haunt him.
It turns out that Senator John Kerry actually voted against the Helms-Burton legislation. Never let the facts get in the way of good campaigning, right? Let's just see if the media calls Kerry out on this one at his next press conference.
I doubt it.
Oh ... and while we're at it. Yet another Kerry lie. This one is about that continuing brouhaha over Kerry's statement that he met with foreign leaders who told him that they wanted him to beat Bush. Kerry's statement was recorded --- yes, recorded --- by a Boston Globe reporter handling pool coverage. Well ... this is turning into a problem for Kerry for two reasons. First, nobody seems to remember when he has met with any foreign leaders. Second, he refuses to share with us the names of these foreign leaders he's been talking too.
Now it seems that sKerry wants to change his story. At a recent meeting with campaign donors sKerry was challenged about his statement that he had met with these mysterious foreign leaders. Kerry's respose? "I never said that. What I said was that I have heard from people who are leaders elsewhere in the world who don't appreciate the Bush administration approach and would love to see a change in the leadership of the United States."
Seems like Mr. sKerry has a problem! Here's this tape recording where sKerry clearly says "met," and there's sKerry saying "I never said that!"

THE FRENCH LOVE KERRY
This should come as no surprise, since John Kerry and the French share the same anti-American, pro-terrorist agenda. It is a bit of a surprise just how popular he is over there.
Apparently, Kerry's face is all over magazines and newspapers on the newsstands of Paris. This quote from a Frenchman says it best: "He is the closest thing that you will have to a French politician, with a certain diplomacy, a certain elegance." He must mean a certain elegance with supporting terrorist regimes sympathetic to Al-Qaeda. He is right about one thing, though. Kerry does look French.
It's a good thing the French can't vote in American elections.
