My letter to the editor was in a local newspaper today. Historically, voters vote with their pocketbook and the leftists have brainwashed voters into believing that the economy and jobless situation is horrible. It is a lie and it's a provable lie.

This is the letter regarding the economy and unemployment I mentioned the other day but couldn't post to FR because it wasn't a published letter yet.

Excellent!

(But you should hold out and make them pay you for it as an op/ed ;-)

Thanks both! The Rats are playing a shell game and it's vitally important to the election that we not let them get away with it.

Congratulations on a fact-filled and well-written letter. It should prove a good source of facts to send out to other outlets. Good Job!

When a person gets laid off from a payroll job, he does one of three things.

Sign up for unemployment, get a new job or take some time off.

My wife was let go from her teaching position last June after 22 years.

The private school hired a replacement for 1/3 what they were paying my wife.

My wife received unemployment insurance, but now that has run out.

She doesn't need to work because my income is more than sufficient for our needs.

Her career was more important for her self esteem.

She is one of those who is counted as "left the looking for a job" statistics.

She will not starve if she never works again.

In fact, she is hoping to teach part time or tutor.

If she tutors, she will not be counted as a new job.

The fact that so many have apparently left the looking for a job category is a positive thing.

It means that they have other means of support.

It doesn't mean that they've lost hope or are in poverty.

As I stated on another thread, this is 1992 all over again. Nothing but lies about the economy, with the left-wing media stooges as willing accomplices.

Definitely. Get the word out.

Post 9/11, national security will be more important than ever before, but still, most people vote with their pocketbook and have been convinced that we've lost jobs but not created any and that the economy itself is tanked. Not true and demonstrably not true.
