    Glenn writes, "Think about how twisted and corrupt that calculus is... etc., and dishonest"...

    [?].

    Next the maladministration may refuse the use of slide-rules and calculators because tax=payers wonder why a war that cost $350- million per day -- Tab for bloodletting in 'our' name in the Middle East isn't picked up by the perverse profiteering Exxon Oil greedy Wall-Street blood-drenched,

    hoodlums.

    Or maybe,

    Practice The Gold Rule?

    `

    If killing and stealing oil-land real estate is sanctioned, and falsely reasoned that murder isn't breaking any Laws, WELL, maybe the "morals" of the Bush's Reign is all damnable lies?

    If these Hubris Geopolitical land grabbers rob foreign oil....the rich real estate property in the Middle East without a

    qualm...

    What if...

    The 'do unto' us becomes something Horrid and Fearful as this scenario: Imagine.

    Forign troops are lied to by another anti-America coalition. Soldiers are ordered to 'our land?

    The naive recruited troops use wire-tapped cell phones and disrupt the Spring seed plant season... Troops with vendettas trample down the foot-high corn crop around the 4th of July Independence party bashes and outdoor barbecues?

    Suppose the foreign battalions surge through the backyard bean fields, front yard Tulip patches, and begin to pluck Roses at George, Laura, and the twin girls Red Rose Garden at The White House?

    Right? Sad. Pitiful.

    Read seed catalogues.

    Grow honest leadership.

    There is no good future bounty with this batch of rotten apples in stolen positions.

    Soon GOPS may outlaw blackberries in DC? Capital Hill too, because of thistle stickers?

    What is to come? Nothing good with the bad batch in Washington DC, that's for sure.

    No. Charles Frazier has a new book, 'Thirteen Moons'... He wrote 'Cold Mountain.'

    It's about an indentured orphan, frontier lawyer. "White Chief" is his name.

    It's a bleaker story than 'Cold Mountain' and gets into the story of Tragic Awareness.

    Yeats wrote, "Man is in Love and loves is what vanishes."

    The book is slow unraveling.

    A life rises with vitality. Troubles enter the lawyers life. He was of the chief Cherokee clan's associates.

    The lawyer becomes a solitary man as he ages.

    The Atrocious events, ref: The Trail of Tears.

    `

    "Everything one loves can go away."

    "Your left with nothing but memory."

    He was once tender and grows sad.

    He recalls once lush green savannahs.

    The mood grows dark, yet the lawyer,

    with character still demands deep respect.

    The story is haunting and shows the human condition.

    It's a story of potential rise and fall of all human beings.

    (It's not a omen, btw)

    `

    I'm still catching up on comments etc., "The doggie in the window comment by shooter242?

    It's regression. Menacing. Murmurous roar. Haughty temper. No compassion. Progeny will despise such ilk. The reason for war's mangled bodies. Terror infiltrating those kinda hearts.

    Anguish. Convulsion. Terrified. Tumult. A banqueter at the sewers. A sorrowful end. Wobbly.

    Wretched ignorance. Endorses savagery. Huddled with fear-mongers. And dogged with no inner peace, forever and ever... A terrified end.

  • I like those Code Pink Ladies...

    [Read the article: Radical Muslims threaten those who dissent]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    At the budget for the fiscal years State Department Yuck-Smorgas'borg (sp) hearings the other day.... As Madame Rice (You no like rice? tatters?Yams?) walked out of the hearing at 1:00PM, a Code Pink Lady ask Madame C.Rice,

    "Are you in preparation for the Hague?"

    "Stop The Lies. Let's Get Out of Iraq, Now!"

    I ask, Who are the tyranny folks? Mr. Riley etc., may think, "Ain't - it - awful?" War is a LIE!

    So- A TV host boast blindly that a honest conversation with sincere compassion is bad?

    The troops are being duped. The real criminals, as the Code Pink mentioned, are the GOPS.

    `

    O, we are all to dress and act like dead gop faxed-clones? I visualize the pro-war punditry

    pin-head MOBS with orange traffic cones each time the pro-war bunch moan and groan. Creeps.

    I'd not wear a pink tie or pink undies to bed...if I had pajama's too -- No got any.

    But even if the Code Pink look silly to a bloody-WAR-chicken-hawk --- So What!

    They speak in behalf of stopping deadly Code Blue unnecessary deaths....I agree.

  • Yikes!

    [Read the article: The Leader isn't protecting us and keeping us safe]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    "The hour of danger is nigh upon us"....So Gads.

    "At the stroke of midnight tonight"... Be awake.

    It seems Vital, Intelligent, and we'd best ya's all Americans fetch a garden tool...

    `

    And I do NOT deny an unforeseen tragic calamity can happen at any moment.

    Yet, Holy Pumpkins! Who is sane is compelled to speak against Fear Mongers.

    By the way -- Who don't love the way a Southern Bell will say, "Howdy Pumpkin!"

    `

    To be protected and to love Cinderella.. Maybe enjoy ordering some garden seeds.

    Oikos -- The true economy has always been a 40X60 backyard plot. The Bush plot?

    Lookout!

    Plant at midnight: Lumina's, Dill's Atlantic Giant, Jack be Little, and Orange Smoothie Crookneck pumpkins? It can't hurt the real economy and you can make a real big Pie.

    A big pumpkins grow best if you give the tender 'infant' plant some warm sweet spurts of milk. Take care to cultivate it. If the fresh raw milk comes from bursting Mother Nature's breast.... yummy. It will be healthy and grow up to be real and true. Honest. Try it.

    A infant who was suckled at a Mothers teat will grow up to feel embraced with warmth, security, and know they were loved. Only love can transform the dastard fear and hate.

    `

    Get as far away from the GOPS as possible so that the roots, so-to-speak, in a human also will penetrate deeply and mature to grow up ripe and pleasantly delicious. Keep abreast. Love penetrates a soft human breast with vitality.

    No fear. No war. No lie. No kill. And no gush.

    O. Maybe bribe 'friends' with berries and pears? Love.

    Don't be transformed into a human bristling hog. No lie.

    The GOP-conservative is a savage beast in a sheep's wool cloak.
