Liberals Rely on Voter Ignorance


The greatest friend the Democrats have in this election is our
hideously pathetic system of government education. Come on, let's
face it. These schools are doing a hideous job. You could spend
three weeks making a list of things that our young people should know
but don't know by the time they get out of high school.

Particularly galling is the ignorance Americans show over matters
economic. This is fantastic news for Democrats who continuously
misrepresent the state of our economy ... and get away with it. The
economy is booming, unemployment is low and things are looking great
... but you'll never hear it from a Democrat. They can lie and get
away with it because stupid Americans just don't know any better.

Let's take this asinine nonsense over jobs "outsourcing." To listen
to Democrats and those who vote for them you would think that India
has stolen about two out of every three jobs in the United States.
It's not true. None other than Bill Clinton's Secretary of Labor
Robert B. Reich had his say on this subject. Reich said: "The number
of [information technology] jobs sent abroad still accounts for a tiny
proportion of America's 10-million-strong IT workforce. When the U.S.
economy bounces back from recession -- as it surely will within the
next 18 months -- we can expect many IT jobs to return."

Is there really a jobs problem in the United States? Try this factoid
on for size. The Bureau of Labor Statistics says that with all of the
baby boomers retiring, by 2005 there will only be one worker in the
U.S. ready to join the workforce for every two boomers that leaves.
This means that by 2008, the time of the next presidential election,
there will be 10 million more jobs than there are people in this
country available to fill them.

This information is dangerous to Democrats ... so is education. No
wonder they oppose any meaningful reform in how our children learn.
