The Jewish vote went to Clinton, is it not, even though he entertained Arafat. Your read that one has to be anti-Arafat to get the Jewish vote is wrong.

There they go again. Appointing someone so that officially jobs could go overseas. If it was not the political season, Bush would have ramroded the appointment through Congress similar to how he deals with the other nations of the world. He cares for none outside his own circle of people and friends. Should the American people care for him?

Bush Choice for Manufacturing Post in Question

Six months after promising to create an office to help the nation's struggling manufacturers, President Bush settled on someone to head it, but the nomination was being reconsidered last night after Democrats revealed that his candidate had opened a factory in China.

Several officials said the nomination may be scrapped because of the political risk but said that had not been decided. Bush's opponent, Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.), has made job losses his chief point of attack, and some administration officials feared the nomination could hand him fresh ammunition.

In late afternoon, the administration announced that the new assistant secretary of commerce for manufacturing and services would be named at a ceremony this morning. Industry officials were told that the job would go to Anthony F. Raimondo, chairman and chief executive of a Nebraska company that makes metal buildings and grain silos.
