Sure looks to me that unemployment is below the average for the last 20 years. Read it Murry Mom. The "Dumbya" is you for swallowing all the lies the Rats feed you while at the same time they have their fingers in your purse.

What I would like to know and understand is this: If the labor has been going down for the past twenty years, if read you correctly. Then why is president Bush getting all the blame for something that has been happening through out the years. I look at stuff like this, is does not matter what your status(meaning, republic, or democratic): The president will always get backlashed, and criticized. I feel sorry for him. He is doing his best and all anyone can do is criticize him. It sickens me.
