Blame Clinton!
If you're like me, then you're sick and tired of Kerry and his Democrat cohorts lying out of their pie-holes, blaming President Bush for a recession (and the consequential job losses) that CLINTON caused. The polls that show Kerry ahead cite the reason as "Bush cost us too many jobs." So, we can reverse that perception by merely getting the truth out -- and impeaching the Democrats' credibility in the process.

The death-drop of the stock market did not begin with the Bush administration in January 2001, says the congressional Joint Economic Committee (JEC), but in March 2000 under the Clinton administration when it began its all-out attack on the entrepreneurs of the booming U.S. high-tech industry. Indeed, The Economist reports that this poisoning of the economic stream even may have begun in the late 1990s. According to JEC Chairman Rep. Jim Saxton, "The 2000 NASDAQ collapse also corroborates a variety of other data indicating that a sharp economic slowdown was under way by the middle of 2000."
The JEC also found that job losses began under Clinton as well:

Virtually all of the net payroll job loss in recent years is accounted for by the manufacturing sector, and this decline in factory jobs began before the current Administration took office, Vice Chairman Jim Saxton said today. Opponents of the Administration have repeatedly claimed that its policies have caused the decline in manufacturing employment, but fail to explain how this trend began long before any changes in policy took place. The facts show that manufacturing employment reached a cyclical peak in 1998, trending downward thereafter. Consecutive monthly declines in manufacturing employment began in 2000. Moreover, manufacturing employment has been trending downward over a much longer period.
Despite the facts, Kerry and the Democrats continue to lie to the public -- and the media dutifully repeats their lies. Well, in the age of the internet, this will not stand!
Here is what YOU can do to get the word out:
1) Write A letter to the editor
Open the "Write for W" window by clicking HERE.
Write a letter to your editor denouncing Kerry and the Democrats for lying to the American people, blaming Bush for Clinton's sins and failures. For some more ideas, click here. Otherwise, here is a sample letter that you can use, edit, etc.
John Kerry and the Democrats have lied to the American people for too long. It has now been firmly established that the economic recession, and job loss, began while Bill Clinton was still in office -- but despite the facts, Kerry and the Democrats lie and blame Bush. This is outrageous.
On December 10, 2003, the congressional Joint Economic Committee released its official study showing that the recession began in the third quarter of 2000. Bill Clinton was still in office.
On January of 2004, the congressional Joint Economic Committee released it official study showing that the job loss that Democrats would like to pin on Bush began in July of 2000. Bill Clinton was still in office.
The fact is, the recession and job loss began on Bill Clinton's watch. President Bush inherited an economy that Bill Clinton destroyed. It is grossly disingenuous -- a flat-out lie -- for Kerry and the Democrats to blame Bush.

Dear Bill,

Please go over the heads of the pinheads in the media and get the truth out to the people!
Thank you!

5) Email ALL your friends this page and tell them to write, call, fax, etc. This is too important an issue to remain silent on any longer.
If you think of any other action that FReepers can take, please post it to this thread.
Thanks!
It may take a decade or two for the actual history to be written, but Bill Clinton's dozens of criminal and treasonous activities while in the White House will eventually be revealed.
