Ducky is market speculation and not a true indication of the economy.
GDP, gross domestic product, total of all goods and services is still shrinking in the U.S. do you call this recovery?
Unemployment is at all time highs, up to 15% in some states? No problem here look the stock market went up from it's all time low in the last 15 years oh we're doing great!
Oh Obama's estimates were optimistic again? He predicted 300k job losses for June and it was closer to 500k? I'm sure it's fine though, I'll watch Obama's infomercial on ABC and he'll tell me it's ok, because he'll tax people richer than me to give me more unemployment and handouts.
Now about afghanistan you want to say what's being done wrong but you don't offer alternatives. Basically the U.S. had Afghanistan pretty stable but then the Taliban who fled to Pakistan, and Pakistan let them stay there hold positions in towns etc, figuring "Hey their muslim they must be ok". Then the Taliban start murdering government officials and Pakistani civilians. Hey they're freedom fighters, Ducky supports them in their acts, they have the right to behead innocents and we should let them!
So we had less troops there and then the Taliban came back from Pakistan regrouped to fight.
Ducky you may be callous but the reason we're still there is so the civilian populations are not forced under fundamentalist rule which involves gang *CENSORED* torture, suicide bombings on civilians, Torture(not talking water boarding here but hacking off limbs and leaving people to die a slow painful death from it), oppression, etc.
I agree though, we should turn our backs on them.
can you quote me next time, im not sure if you answered anything i said, only things your schizophrenic mind told you i said.
my post was a question about why the UN are commies and why they should have to fight a war that is not their own?
if you were replying for the earlier post, it still cant get any worse. 15 year low means only growth from now on, albeit slowly.
and i would reply to the rest, but i cbs, since you have all gone off track. please tell me what this thread is called?
out of the 5. things i mentioned. you replied to only 2. took one of those 2. and went off the track for personal agendas.
so please. on topic. or create your own.
