Representative Elect Kevin Tracy:
I'd like to take this time to address something that has been getting on my nerves lately. It has nothing to do with school policy or anything else directly concerning the school. I am just informing you of national security concern I have been thinking about. The United States media is siding with the minority Democrats and they have been for a while.  I believe this could cost the G.O.P. the Congress in the 2002 elections if the truth isn't stated.

I have heard a lot of rubbish about how President Bush is purposely out to ruin the environment.  This morning, the President made clear that we will be conserving energy during the summer. He also made it clear that his energy plan will include investing money into discovering more efficient ways of producing energy.  But oddly enough, the media manages to find time to sit down in the back yards of Democratic Environmentalists for long interviews while only obtaining brief comments from Republicans. On television, these comments by the republicans are cut short often before the Republican finishes his sentence.  Somehow, the D.N.C. and the media are taking the President's Radio Address and turning it against him and the G.O.P.

I want everyone to know that despite what you may be told, President Bush and his supporters are not on a mission to destroy the environment. The drillers and the President are not working together to raise oil prices.  The real reason they are so high is that OPEC is boosting prices and cutting production.  The President cannot control prices and production overseas but he is doing everything reasonable in his power to save us from paying three dollars a gallon at the pump.

"Just be happy"
