Dropping dollar.... deficits too high....
Another "told you so" - why did we not envade Faluga (sp?) before the election???Because the body count and injury count would be bad for reelection....
What is going to happen to the 1000's of soldiers who have been maimed for life when they get back home to the US - where there are no jobs to be had, their benefits have been cut, etc.,etc.
Actually my husband is in the National Guard....he re-joined immediately after 9/11 and was deployed for a year (not to Iraq, but for domestic duty). He just re-upped for 6 more years so I guess that makes him 'fair game' even without a draft which is never going to happen. That was the most ridiculous (out of a whole SLEW of ridiculous) scare-mongering tactics put out there. But, as I said before, I guess they the Dem's had to make things up since they didn't have any viable programs or options.
Oil down? ON what planet? Here in the east home heating oil i****ting new records and the gas at the pump is $2.11 a gallon.
Jobs up? Again, not here in NY. Then again, I wouldn't brag, if I were you about jobs being up until we get back the 900,000 we lost.
They just put through a measure to raise the deficit ceiling again. Know what that means? Bush intends to spend more money we don't have.
How many more of our men and women have died in Iraq? Anyone see an end of that debacle in site?
Seriously folks. Is gas or oil really down anywhere in your areas? Here in NY it's rising. Since I posted last time gas is up over a nickel a gallon. My brother works for an oil company and they're always nervous when prices go up like this. Maybe I should take a copy of The Economist with me to the gas pump.
Unemployment numbers are misleading because all of us who lost our jobs more than a year ago have fallen off the unemployment rolls. The number you're quoting is new filings for unemployment insurance. It does not reflect the number of people truely unemployed.
