Veterans' Groups say Programs Need Cash
Atlanta Journal-Constitution | November 28, 2005
Washington –
Even as President Bush and Congress heap praise and promises of support on troops in Iraq and veterans at home, veterans' groups say the federal government is failing them by woefully underfunding programs on which vets rely.
Their complaint seems to contradict the evidence: The Bush administration, with a push from Congress, added more than $20 billion to the Veterans Affairs budget in Bush's first four years in office, more than the Clinton administration added in eight years.
And Republican Sens. Saxby Chambliss and Johnny Isakson of Georgia, along with others in Congress from defense-reliant states, are pushing to raise benefits for National Guard members and reservists to more closely match those of active-duty military personnel, increase access to the VA's prescription drug benefit and ensure that veterans are given preferential treatment in federal hiring.
Yet even with a VA budget of $68 billion, the government's financial commitment is being outpaced by the rising cost of health care and the soaring number of veterans eligible for health care, Education and housing assistance. Veterans groups say that with the White House pushing for veterans to pay more for their health care and Congress slashing the budget to cover the deficit, pay for the Iraq war and cover hurricane cleanup costs, it is likely to get worse for veterans before it gets better.
"We're a continuing cost of war," Joseph Violante, national legislative director of the Disabled American Veterans, said. "If you want your freedoms, if you want your safety and your peace, you have to pay for it."
About 25 million veterans ---a figure equal to more than half of the 43 million people who have served in the military since the American Revolution --- are now eligible for VA benefits, according to VA and Pentagon estimates. That includes 3.6 million aging World War II veterans and a new generation of service members returning from Iraq and Afghanistan. More than 1 million vets were added to the VA's rolls in Bush's first term alone.
With increased costs and demand, the VA earlier this year revealed a $1 billion shortfall in health care funding, generating Democratic charges that the Republican-controlled White House and Congress were shortchanging vets even as they publicly vowed support.
Bush proposed adding $100 million for VA health benefits in his 2006 budget request, but that is $3.4 billion short of what a coalition of the nation's largest veterans groups said is necessary to meet current needs. Also, the White House once again proposed more than doubling veterans' co-payment on prescription drugs --- to $15 for each prescription each month --- and to impose a $250 annual enrollment fee on the drug program to help meet the soaring cost of medical care.
Congress is bumping up the spending and once again canceling most of the administration's plans to charge veterans more.
Veterans groups have for years been pressing Congress to solve the problem by converting the VA's health care programs to mandatory funding, which would allow its funding to rise annually according to inflation and need --- as does the funding for entitlement programs like Social Security.
Much of the VA's budget, including pensions and disability compensation, is already for mandatory programs. Running health care the same way would end veterans' annual competition for funds.
"That would take the politics out of it, and a lot of it is politics," said Edward Kemp, national commander of Amvets.
Legislation to convert the VA health benefits is circulating in Congress, but hasn't moved far.
The administration and GOP lawmakers insist they're meeting their obligations to veterans.
"We would love to fund every single program and every agency to the fullest extent as the desires of the beneficiaries would like us to," Chambliss said.
"Unfortunately, that's not the case with any agency."
Isakson said making VA health benefits an entitlement would only run up costs.
"The argument against all mandatory spending is that once you define it as mandatory you put it on cruise control and it's out of the control of Congress," he said. "That's what has gotten us into problems with a lot of programs." Changes proposed
Chambliss earlier this month won passage of a measure that would lower the retirement age for National Guard members and reservists who go on active duty, as so many have in Iraq. Those with 20 years of service would be able to retire as early as age 50 under the proposal.
But this is Chambliss' third try to pass the legislation. The Pentagon and administration opposed past measures, claiming they were too costly. The Pentagon has not opposed his latest bill, but Congress hasn't provided money for it either. Chambliss said he hopes to get full funding --- $300 million over five years --- in the 2007 budget.
Isakson, who sits on the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee, and Chambliss also backed a measure that would give wounded soldiers who live with their families up to $10,000 each to add wheelchair ramps, railings or other accommodations for the disabled to the home even if the soldier isn't the owner. Only veterans who own their own home get the benefit now, even though many of the wounded are so young they have not yet bought a home.
"We are improving vet benefits," said Isakson, adding that Bush "is not being disingenuous at all" in saying he supports the troops while proposing only modest increases in spending. Progress has been made, particularly with prescription drugs and computerization of patients' records, Isakson said.
"The 'not good enough' argument is not an acceptable statement to me when, in fact, you're improving," he said.

SHAME / AS SEEN BY GLYPHS OF ARMADILLO LIGHT
SHAME-This armadillo found the glyphs of truth
Isn't it a damn shame for a leader to use the demise of 3 sinful states to boost his national acceptance ratings. The Congress and House wait until MR Bush ends his vacation, waits until HE is ready to visit the nature-torn coastal areas and THEN the trucks go marching on, when HE arrives. OH HOW GLORIOUS his calvarias ride into New Orleans. Weird how we can spend and send to other nations to aid their disasters, but when it comes to providing aid to OUR OWN........It only seems that, "We the people of the USA," are only good for one damn thing, "Lining the pockets of our government." I am sad to be an American today. FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 2005

“I wish that for you. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish”.
- Steve Jobs - June 2005
Found in old glyphs in a electronic box in a cloth sack.
A armadillo translation put together after much contemplation and group thought.
This is what it is all about stay hungry for the truth of the Zen of self and the muse that is only yours,
stay foolish with the hope of the search for the best in all that you can be knowing that reality is the living, growing of your Zen in a world of chaos always a part of nature to be a part of the whole.
This is the beauty of the self and mother nature as the wind blows in chaos with the tide that brings the grains of sand on to the beach for that brief moment we call life .
This is a reflection in Hamlet in a speech to Rosencrans and Guildinstern as they went to town , a quote " to thin oneself be true" .
Any way we all graduate to began anew each day we open our mind to he morning and close our eyes to rest and renew energy for the next step in the quest to become all we are to each other
in the journey called "life" and the Muse that holds our hand to comfort our foolishness.
So I would say to Steve Jobs !
Thanks for the apple that fell into my life and Mother Nature, Isaac Newton and friends that thru it in foolish quest of concepts before.

The Hide and Watch game on high and those who hope united fly’s
Putting a balanced view of a problem of the new world order of business.
This is realty about people looking to survive in new form of corporate fascist capitalism or the corporate city state where to be a part of producing you must ware the suit and label pin and march as a totem for the group think of greed, morals for the sake of the corporate will and the power of the Mindless MBA non speak with a illusion business only needs 34 cent labor.
In the new business model people are just a number in the bottom line ad the PR and marketing with a beautiful photo op and a touting of services and goods what ever is the best mindless of quality or pride for there is not any loyalty for the worker and a job well done.
So when you find that there is a group that is willing to try to make something work something out in an environment of corporations running the best Government that they can be brought.
You really can't call this a free market for it is the chosen few . for the policy’s are written by and passed by the greedy few at this dance of sell out This country to the highest bidder and gifts of contracts to those who rape and pillage all the good souls that still believe in fair play and honest hard working men and women that has pride in self and the real American dream.
When you have a President that starts a war for oil and friends on a lie and then Holding hands with an oil nation Saudi prince that has been preaching hate and jihad against the US and amazingly fly’s them out of the country 3 hours after 9/11 with most of the terrorist being Saudis and "Osma"
still out there.
Then take a look at oil prices and who's getting rich?
No one in the American economy just getting sucked dry. Only one company and friends come to mind how about the sole "Halliburton" contractor for rebuilding Iraq you say with the 15,000 private army of mercenary’s making around $900.00 per day,
An now you have the secret meeting architects of the energy policy Vice President a moral leadership built on that " go ---- yourself" leadership meeting and holding hand with the Saudi hate mongers wanting to give them more aid. wow to have a oil well?
Compare it to the Military The Young men and women and the loss of life, blood and limbs, what may be $30.00 a day or less and then PR them as Hero’s this reality is the sick joke on good citizens.
My question to the gentleman that speaks to the L word is what think tank, special interest group is footing the bill for his PR thoughts maybe some one to weaken the image for a take over?
Your presentation is a touch of a look at one of many major problems at business in this nation where people want to believe in that basic dream to be free to be the best of what ever you can be.
Not to be sold out by this nation to the Chinese Communist ($2,000,000,000.00 in interest a day plus the trade defect that keeps growing everyday and what about the 68% of the major corporations that pay not a sue to the up keep of the very nation and the men and women that put in the sweat , tears and hope of the dream only to see a welfare state for the corporations.
Of course this is just an observation of an old armadillo looking at and translations of glyphs of a yellowed bunch of paper found in cabinet.

Meanwhile the Chinese communist government is laughing for they don’t have to use their Army they just buy us up with our money tech-knowlege and Wal-mart and march in tell us to sit down and shut up and then we can all work for 34 cents and hour.
All you say is true but let every one do there thing as that is the way of all good citizens, these are all pr nuts and rove is the Nazi of them all,
Remember that if you want to keep our freedom we must go after them from all different sides with words of confusion like they have created photo ops and untruths and images to make you to get to people right and left to go after each other and us and create this hate, anger and fear so I say lets confuse them and bring chaos to them like a tsunami. E
ngulfs them with a swirl of not knowing up from down.
Remember this works if we take it to the streets and add our confusion. to there’s
We are being sold out to the Chinese communists by our communist corporations and G. Bush Fascist oil gang of reconstructionst at the Institute of Halliburton with their non-leader the Vice President and the new American Motto “ go ---- yourself” leadership balanced with the Bush drug creed “ what me worry” as he skips merrily holding hands
with his Saudi prince laughing wile the gasoline and oil profits bloat
the belly’s of the paid of congressional who sold their souls
to the company store of greed.
All the above carried out by the blind mindless and soulless leader
“What ME Worry“ President that will look you in the eye, very carefully sign a picture for you or say how brave your child died in a country where he started this insanity of corporate take of this Nation for they same group that had Kennedy assonated
Of course this is just an observation of an old Introdiggn’s of a Texas Armadillo Barrow A. Dillo an Archdillogist trying to decipher some
Glyphs in the field of what was a place called Crawford or Odessa but this was where there was a radiation leak in some kind of storage area
And sorry to say all had to be abandoned as it exploded and ruined the area for 20,000 years nothing in there Except a town on top and a glowing thing they called a billboard with a glyph that translated
“Communist Go Home”

a armadillo observation from a mystical glyph found in a broken bowl.
Something to a publication?
CSMonter OK’s for Chinese Communist oil deal,
where OH where has reason gone
When we allow this administration to sell out the American dream?
I'm a Korean veteran and for you to endorse any dealings with a communist dictatorship is truly an insult to all the over 56,000 Military dead in the name of peace a part of which the Chinese are responsible for and the fact we've never signed a peace treaty with.
This is a Godless nation and a dictatorship like fell in Russia , what kind of fools are you?
You speak of morality yet support the selling off our nation, With the
"go ---- yourself" leadership of a V.P. that is a part of a anti-Christ administration of greed power for the corporate good and screw the people.
If is not true why lie to create a "wag the dog war" for the sake of Texas Saudi oil?
Now every day the good citizen tax payers send the Chinese banks over $2,000,000,000.00
in interest just to keep our own government operating?
While the good citizens put out more tax dollars to pay for corporate welfare toped off by paying for the medical care of employees because they and there Chinese suppliers wal-mart pay poverty wages.
What kind of journalist are you ?
You speak of morals but you avoid the truth as it looks as though Rupert Murdock and friends own you,

Just another armadillo obserservation checking some old glyph's from an old tin can in abunch of strange buildings it translated to OBM ?
What do you think?
Good citizens there is a story out from Reuters
“Halliburton to Build New $30 Million Guantánamo Jail”
Before you read the story think about this:
This has to do with the “Getmo” Business.
From the C-Span hearings of On the civil rights of “ combatants”
Right now there are.
2 up for trial with 4 –5 pending a total of maybe 7 in three years,
taken from the battle field.
Next approximately 512 from who knows where some sold by drug lords to US for cash ?
Think about this a moment?
Lets say just for a rough assumption there are “512”
The cost of setting up Guantánamo.
The Tax payer’s put up for the DOD contractors? A cost of $140,000,000.00 give or take a couple of Million.
With a little quick math at 512 persons it looks like these cost the US tax payer $74,000,000.00 per person to build.
Now the operating costs they said are at $40,000,000.00 and you divide that at 512 persons and WOW the tax payer’s get to put out
$8,203,120.00 per person
Now with the chicken pen solitary confinement and the plate dinners they showed them eating the must budget themselves out at least $1,000.00 per chicken maybe the plastic plates cost $2,000.00 per each.
Maybe they have the $900.00 toilet set contractor?
It sure makes you wonder?
Important that you remember multiply that $40,000,000.00 by 3 times.
Now think of the terrorist problem at our Mercian boarder and the drug dealers and smugglers and GP illegal from other countries coming across the boarders. And the real kick is they are stealing billion of dollars , along with bring in incurable TB and other postulant’s.
And what does Homeland insecurity do 200 extra boarder patrol and a failed “high-tech failure video system that is a joke at a cost of over $200,000,000.00 Where there are equipment is in warehouses not even installed, Now the ultimate Gale of Homeland insecurity refused to set in a new budget session to discuss the spending of close to another
$750,000,000.00 for another system.
And the contracts are to the same people that are screwing the Tax payer and sending the manufacturing base to other countries.
HLS tells congress its none of there business because it was before their mandate.
What kind of responsible Government does this speak for?
What major Corporations are running the country?
What about a administration that has a “Go ---- yourself” leadership
And I’m your corporate god you don’t have a say in this democracy unless you do what I say.
Maybe this is a new corporate “concentration camp” for non believer’s?
Check this story out.
All of it as the truth is out there.

Halliburton to Build New $30 Million Guantánamo Jail
Reuters
Thursday 16 June 2005
Washington - A Halliburton Co. unit will build a new $30 million detention facility and security fence at the US naval base at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, where the United States is holding about 520 foreign terrorism suspects, the Defense Department announced on Thursday.
The announcement comes the same week that Vice President Dick Cheney and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld defended the jail after US lawmakers said it had created an image problem for the United States.
Critics have decried the indefinite detention of Guantánamo detainees, whom the United States has denied rights accorded under the Geneva Conventions to prisoners of war. The prison was called "the gulag of our times" in a recent Amnesty International report.
An air-conditioned two-story prison, known as Detention Camp #6, will be built at Guantánamo to house 220 men. It will include exercise areas, medical and dental spaces as well as a security control room, the contract announcement said.
The contract announcement did not specify whether the new prison would also hold foreign terror suspects.
Under the deal with the Norfolk, Virginia-based US Naval Facilities Engineering Command, Atlantic, the work is to be wrapped up by July 2006. It is part of a larger contract that could be worth up to $500 million if all options are exercised, the Defense Department said.
The project is to be carried out by Halliburton subsidiary Kellogg Brown & Root Services of Arlington, Virginia. It includes site work, heating ventilation and air conditioning, plumbing and electrical work, the Pentagon said.
The first prisoners arrived at the prison camp in January 2002 after the Sept. 11, 2001, hijacked airliner attacks on New York and the Pentagon.
The Pentagon has said about 520 detainees from more than 40 countries are being held at the prison, without giving a precise figure.
Rumsfeld said on Tuesday US taxpayers had spend more than $100 million on construction costs and no other facility could replace it.

Under the deal with the Norfolk, Virginia-based US Naval Facilities Engineering Command, Atlantic, the work is to be wrapped up by July 2006. It is part of a larger contract that could be worth up to $500 million if all options are exercised, the Defense Department said.
The project is to be carried out by Halliburton subsidiary Kellogg Brown & Root Services of Arlington, Virginia. It includes site work, heating ventilation and air conditioning, plumbing and electrical work, the Pentagon said.
The first prisoners arrived at the prison camp in January 2002 after the Sept. 11, 2001, hijacked airliner attacks on New York and the Pentagon.
The Pentagon has said about 520 detainees from more than 40 countries are being held at the prison, without giving a precise figure.
Rumsfeld said on Tuesday US taxpayers had spend more than $100 million on construction costs and no other facility could replace it.

Just a small introdiggi'n by Barrow A. Dillo an olld armadillo translating som found glyphs under a pile of old papers. It seems to speak to issues of a sorts, hope you can figure this one out.
The peoples business of this nation is getting The “Cheney go ---- yourself” leadership With a touch of the Karl Rove Press release repatriated misdirected snake oil salesmen flim flam.
This is a country of a government by the people not a Corporate business based on a fascist communist capitalism.
Here's health care money maybe even education "no child" or national debt.
As of now we have to barrow 2 billion dollars and change per day from Chinese Communist banks to keep our nation operating, What's going on with this administration? And a congress?
they seem be all brought and paid for by the corporate communist friends of congress?
I thought we were at war with them, no wonder we con not reason with them, they own our government’s and our company store, and buying up our manufacturing base.
You can check it out for your selves. If your not afraid?
The Treasury's Financial Management Service bureau has failed to call
in $3.3 billion in taxes owed by 33,000 delinquent civilian
contractors, the Government Accountability Office reported. A Senate
panel was expected to take up the issue Thursday. The GAO does not
identify the delinquents, a restriction that hampers federal agencies
from knowing whether the contractors and vendors with whom they deal
are among them.

Wal-Mart , Wal-Mart Where art thou a going?
I would say that we have a case of “Excuse me” I seem to remember that the
Berlin wall fell and OOOps there went “GUMPS”.
the state owned super mall / department store communist distribution center “ their version of American super market?
I’m a Korean veteran (marine corps) you know the “peace keeping force”
I remember all that rhetoric about the evils of a godless society and now this great administration is in debt to a Chinese “Communist country
that we pay out more that a Billion dollars a day in interest just to keep this nation operating.
Now we add the trade deficit with a Chinese Communist country that America and this must be in Quotes “ are selling out our commercial base of the middle class along with our Wolfowitz, Rumsfeld and Cheney “go ----yourself” leadership of greed with a new phrase:
“ that’s OK if you can’t steal it we’ll sell it to you for a “Wal-Mart discount”.
You can make it here for 34 cents an hour so can ship it back and increase the trade deficit so the working poor of American can have the idea that they are a success.
With all this going on? Now they say they are going up scale?
A simple question for “The Corporate” community which you have to put history to work back over 30 years ago to look at the oil business when all the money was invested and the greed was rampant ) .
The oil nations said we are going to nationalize this business and you can have 30% but we own the rest “OOOps” Thus the time AMCO was born.
Who you ask helped make the deals to keep it together
( check out Rumsfeld, Shultz, Cheney deal with Saddam Hessian and mix in a Saudi prince or two. Naturally don’t forget the grand daddy of them all H. L. Hunt family and friends.
The question now is when will the Chinese Communist say “OOOps” and nationalize all these greedy corporations with one word we’ve “gotcha”
(A note/ just in check it out that the tax payers are paying all medical expenses in the state of Minnesota for wal-mart employees Corporate communism?)
Natural this is just the Introdiggn’s of an old armadillo “Barrow A. Dillo” checking out some old glyphs found on the Crawford fiefdom dig in armadillo land.
An observation in the mystical world of commerce of “want”,

WARD CHURCHILL:, What’s it all really about Indian or not, speech or not.
How about a debate of History, power, money, greed and the human condition with the price that is paid by the many for a few?
I'm 72 and been hanging out for a while and I'm glad to see this concept brought to the surface for a debate.
This issue now has great meaning in the foundation at the bottom line of, power, religious concepts of the treatment of all also in our stewardship of the peace of the universe or we would call our land where ever we are standing.
We now live in a country with an administration that governs not by a republic or democracy of freemen but by the Corporate communist states of which lobbyist with the monetary buying of the people who we have elected an asked to watch out for our interests. You could say "greed is great" and GOP fascist are fine but keep in mind history has shown us the imagery of that mind set.
Which they put a blind eye on each day and use Jingo phrases, and fake religious leaders using emotional fear, guilt, and the great animal side to condemn others when they refuse to live the way of their blind mindless desire to blame others for there own lack of self control, bad judgment and poor choices?
I lived in new York and I visited wall street where the Dutch brought the island for "24 dollars" and later killed the natives and cut there heads off and played ball, (you might note that this has been found to be a game thousands of years old) now the twin towers you need to talk to the Saudi prince that was holding G. Bush's hand and ask why he allowed their air plane to fly out of the country 3 hours after 9/11 when he new they were the leading teachers of hate for our nation (where oh where is that Osama gone}
The Churchill observation was not far off as we have a government not by citizens but a corporate communist “state of being” with a leadership that gracefully puts the high blessing that sets the right wing moral tone by
the vice president "the Go ---- Yourself" leadership, and a cast of low moral
self-serving dancers of do nothing.
All this orchestrated by one Karl Rove in the creation of God through the Bushvillie Follies that is truly the height in our commercial culture of photo-ops, and press releases, and a dog and phony "wag the dog war."
This will last at least 100 years by the end Wal-mart, Chinese communist, Mexico, and Halliburton should own the USA.
And the genocide will go on for life changes every day as you can't stop tomorrow.
Oh yes lets do remember there are three colors in the American flag not just red and blue but a white natural background that holds the others together.
Lets just remember we are all just a part of a mystery and still looking for who and what were all about?
Of course these are just the observations of an old armadillo Intro’diggin’s in some old muddy glyphs on round discs and what not translated roughly by Barrow A. Dillo

A thought from the armadillo and the Idea of freedom in mother natures view of man and self in this universe.
The keeper of time has forever, but us alas we have that clock which each is our own spirit in the mist of this journey as we dance to the tune we write.
Be kind and gentle with yourself and words and the Purrrrrrs of your companions as they watch and sing to stroke your soul.

IBM/ could be a security not a quality problem
Just a thought from the observations of an old armadillo about the nature of man and the desire for power and the foolishness of the Bushville follies boyz and their dance of greed.
You might bring to the attention of others that there could be a security not a quality problem with all IBM equipment, servers, software and service as the sale of IBM to the Chinese Company is basically handing over to the military and defense people a new toy or the tools for a great back door to your system.
Just remember China brought 50 years of patents and intellectual property.
Any military background or plain common sense should send a red flag up for anyone, business, government to get ride of their IBM PC,servers software equipment and service equipment as they are they are now in the possession of a communist country the has there own vision and version of the power which adds up to a police state and a secret version of the KGB, stazie or what ever you want to call it mainly In controlling lives
I bet they have great Hackers.
Just think a direct line right into major corporations systems, governments or your home and all “legit” in the colloquial.
Remember, no matter what they say they still are at war with us all.
As a peace treaty was never signed and they helped the Koreans kill over 50,000 thousand Americans along with the other Nations that lost lives in this UN peace keeping mission.
Just the passing thoughts of Barrow A. Dillo in the auto kinetic writings of a poor human

I’m just an old armadillo and happened to find some old glyphs with a story why America as a country the symbols were not as clear as can be translated.
There was some strange references to a “Dr. Strange Love” (maybe Dr. First?) and a leader pounding his shoe saying “that he didn’t worry for the USA would destroy it’s self from with in”.
I'm a vet of the Korean war with lots of time of watching this human journey and this has come to the sadist of all.
For any to support a president and a vice president to quote with a "go ---- yourself." leadership attitude has got to be a sick joke.
A joke if it were not the fact that all the Blood and lives of men to protect the freedom of this nation for over 200 years.
you sirs and madams will be a black mark on the REAL GOP the party of Lincoln, or a democratic party of like persuasion that you have come too this.
Not some Dr. First ‘right wing holier that thou Evangelic Fascist who hopes to purify America like Hitler. And a group greed of corporate president who believes he is a GOD that knows what’s best for all as told to him By Karl Rove along with the whispers of a press release Government.
What an insult to the patriots and the flag of this nation.

This armadillo is trying to understand why
is America in business with Communists?
We know their manifesto was written to destroy our way of life and make us part of their state. Remember the “cold war”?
In the Introdiggn’s of the facts shown on all the glyphs and their translations It appears that this President and Vice President are showing the Good citizens of this great nation that this right wing special interest owned congress along with the wonderful Fascist GOP Corporate congress are truly in favor of the "Go f--- yourself" leadership?
That adds up with the fake free trade public relation, marketing scam paid for with tax money and touted by talking heads from the welfare supported corporate community and WTO.
Sell off America to the high bidders, Makes this old armadillo ask the question?
The dismantling of the bill of rights,
Homeland Security that cant even find illegal aliens?
Halliburton private contracts and a 15,000 $900.00 a day (you do the math for a year ) private army paid for with your tax money?
Remember we have spent money we do not have for a 100 year war not of or for freedom but, for power, profit and greed.
This administration must be owned buy the Communists ?
It is written that Ronald Reagan was our savior as he helped knock down the wall for freedom against Communism.
The last I understood that China was a communist country. Now they own us. We pay the Chinese 1 Billion dollars in interest own our debit everyday. While we give them even more money through The great” Commie-mart” OOOps the ( wal-mart } .
One last big question.
And that would be what if they decide to nationalize all businesses, banks and partnerships and tell the USA to pay all foreign debit immediately and they were taking 60% ownership of all assets in this and related countries?
It is just an armadillo observation and something to think about?

I know this old armadillo has made reference to this concept before and now it presents it self again
Now with all this faith based buzz word translated glyphs found on disks in black pools of oily liquid the old archdillogist found this concept going on it makes you ask a question about a campaign marketing GOD?
God is private business, And this faith based phony clap trap billboard guild organization by a immoral cheerleader and the GOP "Go .... your self" leadership that represents the anti-Christ along with "$2000.00 hot dog Boyz"
GOD is dead killed by the Christian, Jews, Muslim and advertising commercializing
an marketing messages to push your self importance and curry favor from Karl Rove, Karin Hughes Makes GOD a sick joke .
So please take yourselves into your own closets and lets hope you find the light of truth in your own dark souls about all the false messages you post that are lies, and misdirection’s for a dollar of a marketing PR strategy.
The lack of imagination and creative poor taste out there is choking itself to death.
Be honest it is only faith not a fact God is even here.
Taking Tax money that could be better spent feeding the poor or keeping a homeless kid in school with a hot meal. not trying to curry favor with a president that thinks he is speaking for GOD.
The long time drug use has given him problems according to one of the armadillo annalist on site of course it is all based on translating the glyphs.

Just an armadillo thought on cats and the natural laws and the state of mans affairs
Just an armadillo thought about the lack of intelligence and study of the glyphs deciphered from a dig that produced subject information on animals with a focus on showing a need of knowledge and information on cats and the natural laws of mother nature.
This kill law concept was noted as developed in Wisconsin.
There will be created a day in time soon where you will not have a safe day from the diseases that rats, mice, and other small natural creatures that are in natures balance.
Also note with this NEW bird flu is coming and you will have screwed with mother nature for these birds will bring a flu that will take many lives.
Will you blame and kill a child's pet or the only friend and soul mate maybe the elderly or disabled might have.
To shoot them for doing their natural duty or sleeping on their own property or just being a cat prowling as they do.
Consider that a few hundred years ago they removed and killed all the cats in Europe in the middle ages and OOOps!!!
Rats brought the “black plague” as a result 25 million people or over one-third of Europe died in three years by this rodent born bubonic plague.
Humanity was saved just in time only when the cat was reintroduced.
Australia, introduced the cat in to prevent the outbreak of the plague. And their homes were virtually vermin free for decades.
In 1995, five years after beginning the most solid anti-cat kill campaign since that middle age time.
Now they are invading homes, restaurants, and food processing plants.
Along with a mouse plague in the grain fields coasting hundreds of millions of dollars not to mention contaminated foods and disease, proliferation in over population of snakes, bats and birds.
If you call yourself a Christian remember Gods word about stewardship of all creatures and the environment.
The balance in nature is a natural law for every action there is a reaction.
I'm over 70 and these creatures are important to the love and care of all people and young alike for they are the comforters of the soul of man.
So don't try to control what God has put on this earth as I do not think you are bigger or better than he. Just so some gun nut can have something to shoot at, he might want to take the neighbor out for the fun of it because they like cats.
Remember that more birds are killed by Urban renewal displacement of habit along with tall glass buildings and power lines that is a fact you can find from studies of wild life of birds. you have a beautiful state with a rich history the Dales, cheese making, and a great Madison county fair why destroy beauty.
I would suggest that your farmers and others losing out to CAFTA free trade "just remember that they will buy from you in a five country economy and amount of goods you could sell the size of Orlando Florida" and of course you know what you've sold Orlando last year
And to top it off just think when the Chinese Communist will start buying up your cheese companies to sell it back to you through The Commie-Mart ( Oops I Mean Wal-Mart ) just thank Bush and the boyz in a secret deal let them buy IBM, if you have any of their equipment a hackers dream also at this moment in a secret deal an India corporation is buying up the only fiber optic land link left that carries all out of county major communications including banking, military just another hackers dream come true?
How Homeland Security works is Just a joke the PR party's, Special uniforms, a an over designed logo for everybody, don't worry that the FBI just blew 170,000.000 million dollars on a computer system that doesn’t work, and the old equipment of the system in every branch that does well on hoping to talking to one another.
Question: What if these other nations all decide to nationalize all there business and say we have no right to the companies or information and we have to make a deal of their choosing as we all need to pay our out standing debt on the barrowed money to them.
Also, we can't even stand up to them now because of debt and we do not have any defense factories, parts for our army such depend on there parts other country’s own them? And our front line defense we have about 1 million private Security guards maybe added to the police and first responders with left over equipment?
And the Wolfawitz-Rumsfeld Homeland Security joke budget that adds the total of 100 new boarder patrol agents. How is that going to keep out another 3 million unknowns out
To allow shooting cats is a sick concept the people of your fair state are being sold down the river.
Take a look ad see that 69% of all major Corporations Pay no taxes and the American tax payer pay these off shore gangs and subsidizes them and they bring it back duty free.
Remember everyday your tax payers and the other good citizens of this nation are paying interest on the national and trade deficit over a billion dollars of interest a day on the this debt because of a cheerleader Public Relations with the dance of Press releases and Corporate response here and there moving and attacking with no substance all the while the interstice is growing everyday.
If you think your Chamber of Commerce is protecting you just check out who wants illegal aliens to have drivers license and amnesty for cheap Corporate labor. Welcome slaves to the new order of the
“Cheney go …. Your self “ US citizens Halliburton owns you.
Naturally this is just the Introdiggn’s Barrow a. Dillo from some old glyphs left in a pit of something thick and gooey called oil.

So don't try to control what God has put on this earth as I do not think you are bigger or better than he. Just so some gun nut can have something to shoot at, he might want to take the neighbor out for the fun of it because they like cats.
Remember that more birds are killed by Urban renewal displacement of habit along with tall glass buildings and power lines that is a fact you can find from studies of wild life of birds. you have a beautiful state with a rich history the Dales, cheese making, and a great Madison county fair why destroy beauty.
I would suggest that your farmers and others losing out to CAFTA free trade "just remember that they will buy from you in a five country economy and amount of goods you could sell the size of Orlando Florida" and of course you know what you've sold Orlando last year
And to top it off just think when the Chinese Communist will start buying up your cheese companies to sell it back to you through The Commie-Mart ( Oops I Mean Wal-Mart ) just thank Bush and the boyz in a secret deal let them buy IBM, if you have any of their equipment a hackers dream also at this moment in a secret deal an India corporation is buying up the only fiber optic land link left that carries all out of county major communications including banking, military just another hackers dream come true?
How Homeland Security works is Just a joke the PR party's, Special uniforms, a an over designed logo for everybody, don't worry that the FBI just blew 170,000.000 million dollars on a computer system that doesn’t work, and the old equipment of the system in every branch that does well on hoping to talking to one another.
Question: What if these other nations all decide to nationalize all there business and say we have no right to the companies or information and we have to make a deal of their choosing as we all need to pay our out standing debt on the barrowed money to them.
Also, we can't even stand up to them now because of debt and we do not have any defense factories, parts for our army such depend on there parts other country’s own them? And our front line defense we have about 1 million private Security guards maybe added to the police and first responders with left over equipment?
And the Wolfawitz-Rumsfeld Homeland Security joke budget that adds the total of 100 new boarder patrol agents. How is that going to keep out another 3 million unknowns out
To allow shooting cats is a sick concept the people of your fair state are being sold down the river.
Take a look ad see that 69% of all major Corporations Pay no taxes and the American tax payer pay these off shore gangs and subsidizes them and they bring it back duty free.
Remember everyday your tax payers and the other good citizens of this nation are paying interest on the national and trade deficit over a billion dollars of interest a day on the this debt because of a cheerleader Public Relations with the dance of Press releases and Corporate response here and there moving and attacking with no substance all the while the interstice is growing everyday.
If you think your Chamber of Commerce is protecting you just check out who wants illegal aliens to have drivers license and amnesty for cheap Corporate labor. Welcome slaves to the new order of the
“Cheney go …. Your self “ US citizens Halliburton owns you.
Naturally this is just the Introdiggn’s Barrow a. Dillo from some old glyphs left in a pit of something thick and gooey called oil.

Who owns this country? Communist China? or the good citizens of the USA.
An observation from an old armadillo that has just found the meaning to some old Glyphs on a wall?
Sirs it is best we take all to the streets for talking to greed is like speaking to someone in a pick up and a heavy metal group with the bass and treble at 1000 disc.
Impeach Bush and Gang now or suffer the loss of this country to the China communists?
I'm a Korean vet and I thought we we're enemies of theirs we never signed a peace treaty?
What happens if they decide to nationalize all companies and demand that we pay our interest debt to them?
Become the minutemen for journalism fighters and truth seekers put light on the truth for justice?
Save the middle class “take back our country”
Keep the faith on the behalf of Barrow A. Dillo

IBM/ could be a security not a quality problem
Just a thought from the observations of an old armadillo about the nature of man and the desire for power and the foolishness of the Bushville follies boyz and their dance of greed.
You might bring to the attention of others that there could be a security not a quality problem with all IBM equipment, servers, software and service as the sale of IBM to the Chinese Company is basically handing over to the military and defense people a new toy or the tools for a great back door to your system.
Just remember China brought 50 years of patents and intellectual property.
Any military background or plain common sense should send a red flag up for anyone, business, government to get ride of their IBM PC,servers software equipment and service equipment as they are they are now in the possession of a communist country the has there own vision and version of the power which adds up to a police state and a secret version of the KGB, stazie or what ever you want to call it mainly In controlling lives
I bet they have great Hackers.
Just think a direct line right into major corporations systems, governments or your home and all “legit” in the colloquial.
Remember, no matter what they say they still are at war with us all.
As a peace treaty was never signed and they helped the Koreans kill over 50,000 thousand Americans along with the other Nations that lost lives in this UN peace keeping mission.
Just the passing thoughts of Barrow A. Dillo in the auto kinetic writings of robert c. maize

an old armadillo reading on an old translation of so glyphs left at a front door of what looks like a official door enterance.
prensents a point of lost chaos of the
Subject: Lubbock
To all past, present and future Lubbockites (or to those who wish you
were from here, or to those who have been transplanted here, or to those
who know someone from here....) --here is something for your careful
consideration.
1. Lubbock has many houses of worship. The two biggest are Jones
Stadium (football) and the United Spirit Arena (basketball).
2. Lubbock has an annual event called "A Taste of Lubbock". This is not
to be confused with the event during dust storm season, which is called "A Taste of Lubbock Landscape".
3. Lubbock is tolerant of people of all sexes, temperaments, age, creed, color and sexual orientation, just as long as you are a good coach.
4. Lubbock's idea of prohibition is to put all of the package liquor
stores just outside of city limits; 'cause, Lord knows, a fat guy wouldn't
cross the room for a donut and a Tech student won't drive a mile for a
beer!
5. The two biggest sports in the fall are Tech Football games and
drunken brawls after Tech Football games.
6. Lubbock has some type of ten-year cycle of weirdness.
In the 70's tornadoes hit. In the 80's the Virgin Mary was expected to
appear.
In the 90's an earthquake shook Lubbock.
In 2002 a Tech Professor lied about destroying viruses that could wipe
out a big chunk of the population. Psychics predict that cycle will
continue into 2011 when a Lubbock driver will actually use a turn signal or stop at a red light!
7. The two hardest things to find in Lubbock are bad barbecue and a
parking space anywhere near Tech.
8. The Lubbock newspaper publishes a daily prayer on the front page.
It's very appropriate because there isn't a prayer of finding anything
interesting on the other pages.
9. Lubbock finally got the funds for an east-west freeway and promptly
named it after a basketball coach. Evidently that shuttle mission commanded by a Texas Tech Alumnus wasn't quite as dangerous as facing the UT Longhorns in an away game.
10. It's true all traffic directions start with "get on the Loop" and
end with "get off the loop". They don't mention the middle part of "if you
surve the Loop".
11. It took a full 30 years or more before Lubbock forgave Buddy Holly
for being such a heathen rock and roller and honored him with a museum. It will be twice that long before we even claim Natalie Maines.
12. Lubbock has a somewhat successful minor league hockey franchise
and their popularity has nothing to do with the fact that it's the only
sporting event in Lubbock where you can drink beer (really, we swear!).
13. After a Tech victory against A&M, the Aggies responded by beating
EACH OTHER up
14. No matter when you read this, today, ten years from now, or even if
it was found in an archeological dig, one fact about Lubbock will not have changed. The Loop will still be under construction.
15. Lubbock has the best, friendliest people in the world because, as you can tell from the above list, all we really have is each other.

An armadillo on the trail of glyphs of the quest of human time?
With the great question of looking at the past? And one thought of saying I'm up on you by 5 yrs. I keep trying -- conservation, rejuvenation, recycling, etc. And our generation doesn't have the outcome to be concerned with. The younger generations don't bother with things like that. It is "do what you want to do, to heck with the rest" for them.
Answer may be?
I know that it seems as it is full speed ahead and dam the torpedoes, but there are those that still hold to the best you can be, with respect to all with care, good will and a helping hand.
This other human element of chaos has always been there it is only by the mass that we only are able to see it all now.
This because of our mass communication ability to see all in an instant and the creative juice of the snake oil salesman of old wearing their new suits of instant promises of the curies of all things emotional, imagined, or manufactured half truths, or just plain lies and a spin pr man to misdirect that you will look younger cream and the photo of a 15 year old a clear gel on the lens to soften the image along with a pill to make romance, wellness, or a child sit on a potty.
Actualy the above seems to keep compond itself with a never ending pac man chasing all sleeping gray cells of the human world.
As all armadillo knows these Human's created the value of time and so these human's have the free will to change it as this is freewill.
It began that way as when the first man found the second man and they saw there first female and the light rose and then went dark with the desire to be with the female thus time was born.
Ouch, Oops, or what ever you can do to keep life simple and balanced means another step forward in this journey of life?

A glyph found in a stone plaque of what looks to the time past document another of where the Human development it is still under the great armadillo archadil‘logist Barrow A. Dillo a translation of thought is still in formative stage, and a apology to the author who ever out there in this great universal cosmos we all share a great thank you.
AN ODE TO THE KIDS WHO SURVIVED
First, we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they carried us. They consumed blue cheese dressing and never
bothered to get tested for diabetes. Then after that trauma, our baby
cribs were covered with bright colored lead-based paints. We had no
childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors or cabinets, and when we
rode our bikes, we had no helmets. And then later, there were the
risks we took while hitchhiking.
As children, we would ride in cars with no seat belts or air bags, and
riding in the back of a pick up on a warm day was always a special
treat.
We drank water from the garden hose and not from a bottle. We shared
one soft drink with four friends from one bottle, and no one actually
died.
We ate cupcakes, bread and butter, and drank soda pop with sugar in it,
but we weren't overweight, because we were always outside...
playing. We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long
as we were back when the streetlights came on. No one was able to
reach us all day, because we had no cell phones. And we were all O.K.
We would spend hours building our go-carts out of scraps, and then
ride down the hill, only to find we had forgotten the brakes. After
running into the bushes a few times, we learned how to solve the
problem.
We didn't have Play stations, Nintendo's, X-boxes, no video games at
all, no 99 channels on cable, no video tape movies, no surround sound,
no cell phones, no personal computers, no Internet or Internet chat
rooms. . . we had friends, and we went outside and found them. We
rode bikes or walked to a friend's house and knocked on the door or
rang the bell, or just walked in and talked to them.
We fell out of trees, got cut, broke bones and teeth, and amazingly,
no lawsuits resulted from our actions. We made up games with sticks
and tennis .balls, and ate worms. And although we were told it would
happen, we didn't put out very many eyes, nor did the worms live in us forever.
Little league had tryouts, and not everyone made the team. Those who
didn't, had to learn to deal with it. Imagine that. The idea of a
parent bailing us out if we broke the law was unheard of. They
actually sided with the law.
This generation produced some of the world's best risk-takers, problem
solvers and inventors. The past 50 years have been an explosion of
innovation and new ideas.
We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned
how to deal with it. And you are among the survivors.
Congratulations.

A armadillo ponders a glyph of human thought of horses and hope.
The greed of man selling off citizens public lands and killing wild horses
Horses, trees, and grazing have gone on for years. As long as we have laws that permit rider bills to be placed in other bills, we will always have the problem of keeping Washington honest. Lobbyists wouldn't have it any other way. I don't believe we will every be able to send a person to Washington who will not be corrupted.
Answer
I just keep hope in my heart and the thought there is always the chance no matter even in my 71 years I will keep on moving by being a part of the search for the betterment of our human lot.
Be kind and gentle with yourselves in all things for it is the way to blow with the winds of time and the light of truth of being You will find a armadillo mind mill with all in the universe.

Any armadillo with a small IQ would see the “ fish story” in the glyphs and so called sound bites as they were called and issue a call to action.
Just keep the faith, and get people active with a group, or letters to ed. or get a group to start showing up at the city council meetings, Google the folks that are raising taxes and on narrow in on who is building what for the Real-estate banker developer gang that is in office along with new city manager,
Make your self aware of the real issues talk to the senior group, any body on SS and fixed income, along with students and there families every one is going to pay, the right wing church evangelicals have forgot the meaning of the word which means good news not prayer clothes to get rich, vitamins, prayer scrolls and blessings from touching a TV set and the idea the more you tithe the richer you'll get adinfinum.
Get mad and stand up for the people show them where to see how they are being Public Relation till chaos sets the mind a whirl and truth is lost in a whirlwind of a nowhere land added to the misdirection and Photo OP by the Bush and his corporate rats or the next thing China will call the mortgage on the national debt and foreclose on everyone remember it is a communist nation and could nationalize all business in China close its boarder and tell us all to stick it
The only business that they would let here would be Wal-mart They would just change the name two of which come to mind "Commie-Mart' or "Red_Mart"?
enough said don't let your self be Terrorized by this gang in the Bushville Follies Gang Of spend thrifts any resemblance to balancing the books and helping people are totally out of the question>

The Great armadillo found a great in tact Glyph from a speech which the translation makes an interesting concept with a light of truth as they say.
Rather long but one must think about it sort of a way to balance order.
So take some quite time to let the gray matter work and read it through and chalange your self
What If (It Was All a Big Mistake)?
By Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX)
Wednesday 26 January 2005
Delivered to the U.S. House of Representatives.
America's policy of foreign intervention, while still debated in the early 20th century, is today accepted as conventional wisdom by both political parties. But what if the overall policy is a colossal mistake, a major error in judgment? Not just bad judgment regarding when and where to impose ourselves, but the entire premise that we have a moral right to meddle in the affairs of others? Think of the untold harm done by years of fighting - hundreds of thousands of American casualties, hundreds of thousands of foreign civilian casualties, and unbelievable human and economic costs. What if it was all needlessly borne by the American people? If we do conclude that grave foreign policy errors have been made, a very serious question must be asked: What would it take to change our policy to one more compatible with a true republic's goal of peace, commerce, and friendship with all nations? Is it not possible that Washington's admonition to avoid entangling alliances is sound advice even today?
In medicine mistakes are made - man is fallible. Misdiagnoses are made, incorrect treatments are given, and experimental trials of medicines are advocated. A good physician understands the imperfections in medical care, advises close follow-ups, and double-checks the diagnosis, treatment, and medication. Adjustments are made to assure the best results. But what if a doctor never checks the success or failure of a treatment, or ignores bad results and assumes his omnipotence - refusing to concede that the initial course of treatment was a mistake? Let me assure you, the results would not be good. Litigation and the loss of reputation in the medical community place restraints on this type of bullheaded behavior.
Sadly, though, when governments, politicians, and bureaucrats make mistakes and refuse to reexamine them, there is little the victims can do to correct things. Since the bully pulpit and the media propaganda machine are instrumental in government cover-ups and deception, the final truth emerges slowly, and only after much suffering. The arrogance of some politicians, regulators, and diplomats actually causes them to become even more aggressive and more determined to prove themselves right, to prove their power is not to be messed with by never admitting a mistake. Truly, power corrupts!
The unwillingness to ever reconsider our policy of foreign intervention, despite obvious failures and shortcomings over the last 50 years, has brought great harm to our country and our liberty. Historically, financial realities are the ultimate check on nations bent on empire. Economic laws ultimately prevail over bad judgment. But tragically, the greater the wealth of a country, the longer the flawed policy lasts. We'll probably not be any different.
We are still a wealthy nation, and our currency is still trusted by the world, yet we are vulnerable to some harsh realities about our true wealth and the burden of our future commitments. Overwhelming debt and the precarious nature of the dollar should serve to restrain our determined leaders, yet they show little concern for deficits. Rest assured, though, the limitations of our endless foreign adventurism and spending will become apparent to everyone at some point in time.
Since 9/11, a lot of energy and money have gone into efforts ostensibly designed to make us safer. Many laws have been passed and many dollars have been spent. Whether or not we're better off is another question.
Today we occupy two countries in the Middle East. We have suffered over 20,000 casualties, and caused possibly 100,000 civilian casualties in Iraq. We have spent over $200 billion in these occupations, as well as hundreds of billions of dollars here at home hoping to be safer. We've created the Department of Homeland Security, passed the Patriot Act, and created a new super CIA agency.
Our government now is permitted to monitor the Internet, to read our mail, to search us without proper search warrants, to develop a national ID card, and to investigate what people are reading in libraries. Ironically, illegal aliens flow into our country and qualify for driving licenses and welfare benefits with little restraint.
These issues are discussed, but nothing has been as highly visible to us as the authoritarianism we accept at the airport. The creation of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has intruded on the privacy of all airline travelers, and there is little evidence that we are safer for it. Driven by fear, we have succumbed to the age-old temptation to sacrifice liberty on the pretense of obtaining security. Love of security, unfortunately, all too often vanquishes love of liberty.
Unchecked fear of another 9/11-type attack constantly preoccupies our leaders and most of our citizens, and drives the legislative attack on our civil liberties. It's frightening to see us doing to ourselves what even bin Laden never dreamed he could accomplish with his suicide bombers.
We don't understand the difference between a vague threat of terrorism and the danger of a guerilla war. One prompts us to expand and nationalize domestic law enforcement while limiting the freedoms of all Americans. The other deals with understanding terrorists like bin Laden, who declared war against us in 1998. Not understanding the difference makes it virtually impossible to deal with the real threats. We are obsessed with passing new laws to make our country safe from a terrorist attack. This confusion about the cause of the 9/11 attacks, the fear they engendered, and the willingness to sacrifice liberty prompts many to declare their satisfaction with the inconveniences and even humiliation at our nation's airports.
There are always those in government who are anxious to increase its power and authority over the people. Strict adherence to personal privacy annoys those who promote a centralized state.
It's no surprise to learn that many of the new laws passed in the aftermath of 9/11 had been proposed long before that date. The attacks merely provided an excuse to do many things previously proposed by dedicated strategists.
All too often government acts perversely, professing to advance liberty while actually doing the opposite. Dozens of new bills passed since 9/11 promise to protect our freedoms and our security. In time we will realize there is little chance our security will be enhanced or our liberties protected.
The powerful and intrusive TSA certainly will not solve our problems. Without a full discussion, greater understanding, and ultimately a change in the foreign policy that incites those who declared war against us, no amount of pat-downs at airports will suffice. Imagine the harm done, the staggering costs, and the loss of liberty if the next 20 years pass and airplanes are never employed by terrorists. Even if there is a possibility that airplanes will be used to terrorize us, TSA's bullying will do little to prevent it. Patting down old women and little kids in airports cannot possibly make us safer!
TSA cannot protect us from another attack and it is not the solution. It serves only to make us all more obedient and complacent toward government intrusions into our lives.
The airport mess has been compounded by other problems, which we fail to recognize. Most assume the government has the greatest responsibility for making private aircraft travel safe. But this assumption only ignores mistakes made before 9/11, when the government taught us to not resist, taught us that airline personnel could not carry guns, and that the government would be in charge of security. Airline owners became complacent and dependent upon the government.
After 9/11 we moved in the wrong direction by allowing total government control and a political takeover by the TSA - which was completely contrary to the proposition that private owners have the ultimate responsibility to protect their customers.
Discrimination laws passed during the last 40 years ostensibly fuel the Transportation Secretary's near obsession with avoiding the appearance of discrimination toward young Muslim males. Instead TSA seemingly targets white children and old women. We have failed to recognize that a safety policy by a private airline is quite a different thing from government agents blindly obeying anti-discrimination laws.
Governments do not have a right to use blanket discrimination, such as that which led to incarceration of Japanese Americans in World War II. However, local law-enforcement agencies should be able to target their searches if the description of a suspect is narrowed by sex, race, or religion.
We are dealing with an entirely different matter when it comes to safety on airplanes. The federal government should not be involved in local law enforcement, and has no right to discriminate. Airlines, on the other hand, should be permitted to do whatever is necessary to provide safety. Private firms - long denied the right - should have a right to discriminate. Fine restaurants, for example, can require that shoes and shirts be worn for service in their establishments. The logic of this remaining property right should permit more sensible security checks at airports. The airlines should be responsible for the safety of their property, and liable for it as well. This is not only the responsibility of the airlines, but it is a civil right that has long been denied them and other private companies.
The present situation requires the government to punish some by targeting those individuals who clearly offer no threat. Any airline that tries to make travel safer and happens to question a larger number of young Muslim males than the government deems appropriate can be assessed huge fines. To add insult to injury, the fines collected from airlines are used for forced sensitivity training of pilots who do their very best, under the circumstances, to make flying safer by restricting the travel of some individuals. We have embarked on a process that serves no logical purpose. While airline safety suffers, personal liberty is diminished and costs skyrocket.
If we're willing to consider a different foreign policy, we should ask ourselves a few questions:
1. What if the policies of foreign intervention, entangling alliances, policing the world, nation building, and spreading our values through force are deeply flawed?
2. What if it is true that Saddam Hussein never had weapons of mass destruction?
3. What if it is true that Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden were never allies?
4. What if it is true that the overthrow of Saddam Hussein did nothing to enhance our national security?
5. What if our current policy in the Middle East leads to the overthrow of our client oil states in the region?
6. What if the American people really knew that more than 20,000 American troops have suffered serious casualties or died in the Iraq war, and 9% of our forces already have been made incapable of returning to battle?
7. What if it turns out there are many more guerrilla fighters in Iraq than our government admits?
8. What if there really have been 100,000 civilian Iraqi casualties, as some claim, and what is an acceptable price for "doing good?"
9. What if Rumsfeld is replaced for the wrong reasons, and things become worse under a Defense Secretary who demands more troops and an expansion of the war?
10. What if we discover that, when they do vote, the overwhelming majority of Iraqis support Islamic (Sharia) law over western secular law, and want our troops removed?
11. What if those who correctly warned of the disaster awaiting us in Iraq are never asked for their opinion of what should be done now?
12. What if the only solution for Iraq is to divide the country into three separate regions, recognizing the principle of self-determination while rejecting the artificial boundaries created in 1918 by non-Iraqis?
13. What if it turns out radical Muslims don't hate us for our freedoms, but rather for our policies in the Middle East that directly affected Arabs and Muslims?
14. What if the invasion and occupation of Iraq actually distracted from pursuing and capturing Osama bin Laden?
15. What if we discover that democracy can't be spread with force of arms?
16. What if democracy is deeply flawed, and instead we should be talking about liberty, property rights, free markets, the rule of law, localized government, weak centralized government, and self-determination promoted through persuasion, not force?
17. What if Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda actually welcomed our invasion and occupation of Arab/Muslim Iraq as proof of their accusations against us, and it served as a magnificent recruiting tool for them?
18. What if our policy greatly increased and prolonged our vulnerability to terrorists and guerilla attacks both at home and abroad?
19. What if the Pentagon, as reported by its Defense Science Board, actually recognized the dangers of our policy before the invasion, and their warnings were ignored or denied?
20. What if the argument that by fighting over there, we won't have to fight here, is wrong, and the opposite is true?
21. What if we can never be safer by giving up some of our freedoms?
22. What if the principle of pre-emptive war is adopted by Russia, China, Israel, India, Pakistan, and others, "justified" by current U.S. policy?
23. What if pre-emptive war and pre-emptive guilt stem from the same flawed policy of authoritarianism, though we fail to recognize it?
24. What if Pakistan is not a trustworthy ally, and turns on us when conditions deteriorate?
25. What if plans are being laid to provoke Syria and/or Iran into actions that would be used to justify a military response and pre-emptive war against them?
26. What if our policy of democratization of the Middle East fails, and ends up fueling a Russian-Chinese alliance that we regret - an alliance not achieved even at the height of the Cold War?
27. What if the policy forbidding profiling at our borders and airports is deeply flawed?
28. What if presuming the guilt of a suspected terrorist without a trial leads to the total undermining of constitutional protections for American citizens when arrested?
29. What if we discover the army is too small to continue policies of pre-emption and nation-building? What if a military draft is the only way to mobilize enough troops?
30. What if the "stop-loss" program is actually an egregious violation of trust and a breach of contract between the government and soldiers? What if it actually is a backdoor draft, leading to unbridled cynicism and rebellion against a voluntary army and generating support for a draft of both men and women? Will lying to troops lead to rebellion and anger toward the political leadership running the war?
31. What if the Pentagon's legal task-force opinion that the President is not bound by international or federal law regarding torture stands unchallenged, and sets a precedent which ultimately harms Americans, while totally disregarding the moral, practical, and legal arguments against such a policy?
32. What if the intelligence reform legislation - which gives us bigger, more expensive bureaucracy - doesn't bolster our security, and distracts us from the real problem of revamping our interventionist foreign policy?
33. What if we suddenly discover we are the aggressors, and we are losing an unwinnable guerrilla war?
34. What if we discover, too late, that we can't afford this war - and that our policies have led to a dollar collapse, rampant inflation, high interest rates, and a severe economic downturn?
Why do I believe these are such important questions? Because the #1 function of the federal government - to provide for national security - has been severely undermined. On 9/11 we had a grand total of 14 aircraft in place to protect the entire U.S. mainland, all of which proved useless that day. We have an annual DOD budget of over $400 billion, most of which is spent overseas in over 100 different countries. On 9/11 our Air Force was better positioned to protect Seoul, Tokyo, Berlin, and London than it was to protect Washington D.C. and New York City.
Moreover, our ill-advised presence in the Middle East and our decade-long bombing of Iraq served only to incite the suicidal attacks of 9/11.
Before 9/11 our CIA ineptly pursued bin Laden, whom the Taliban was protecting. At the same time, the Taliban was receiving significant support from Pakistan - our "trusted ally" that received millions of dollars from the United States. We allied ourselves with both bin Laden and Hussein in the 1980s, only to regret it in the 1990s. And it's safe to say we have used billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars in the last 50 years pursuing this contradictory, irrational, foolish, costly, and very dangerous foreign policy.
Policing the world, spreading democracy by force, nation building, and frequent bombing of countries that pose no threat to us - while leaving the homeland and our borders unprotected - result from a foreign policy that is contradictory and not in our self interest.
I hardly expect anyone in Washington to pay much attention to these concerns. If I'm completely wrong in my criticisms, nothing is lost except my time and energy expended in efforts to get others to reconsider our foreign policy.
But the bigger question is:
What if I'm right, or even partially right, and we urgently need to change course in our foreign policy for the sake of our national and economic security, yet no one pays attention?
For that a price will be paid. Is it not worth talking about?

What If (It Was All a Big Mistake)?
By Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX)
Wednesday 26 January 2005
Delivered to the U.S. House of Representatives.
America's policy of foreign intervention, while still debated in the early 20th century, is today accepted as conventional wisdom by both political parties. But what if the overall policy is a colossal mistake, a major error in judgment? Not just bad judgment regarding when and where to impose ourselves, but the entire premise that we have a moral right to meddle in the affairs of others? Think of the untold harm done by years of fighting - hundreds of thousands of American casualties, hundreds of thousands of foreign civilian casualties, and unbelievable human and economic costs. What if it was all needlessly borne by the American people? If we do conclude that grave foreign policy errors have been made, a very serious question must be asked: What would it take to change our policy to one more compatible with a true republic's goal of peace, commerce, and friendship with all nations? Is it not possible that Washington's admonition to avoid entangling alliances is sound advice even today?
In medicine mistakes are made - man is fallible. Misdiagnoses are made, incorrect treatments are given, and experimental trials of medicines are advocated. A good physician understands the imperfections in medical care, advises close follow-ups, and double-checks the diagnosis, treatment, and medication. Adjustments are made to assure the best results. But what if a doctor never checks the success or failure of a treatment, or ignores bad results and assumes his omnipotence - refusing to concede that the initial course of treatment was a mistake? Let me assure you, the results would not be good. Litigation and the loss of reputation in the medical community place restraints on this type of bullheaded behavior.
Sadly, though, when governments, politicians, and bureaucrats make mistakes and refuse to reexamine them, there is little the victims can do to correct things. Since the bully pulpit and the media propaganda machine are instrumental in government cover-ups and deception, the final truth emerges slowly, and only after much suffering. The arrogance of some politicians, regulators, and diplomats actually causes them to become even more aggressive and more determined to prove themselves right, to prove their power is not to be messed with by never admitting a mistake. Truly, power corrupts!
The unwillingness to ever reconsider our policy of foreign intervention, despite obvious failures and shortcomings over the last 50 years, has brought great harm to our country and our liberty. Historically, financial realities are the ultimate check on nations bent on empire. Economic laws ultimately prevail over bad judgment. But tragically, the greater the wealth of a country, the longer the flawed policy lasts. We'll probably not be any different.
We are still a wealthy nation, and our currency is still trusted by the world, yet we are vulnerable to some harsh realities about our true wealth and the burden of our future commitments. Overwhelming debt and the precarious nature of the dollar should serve to restrain our determined leaders, yet they show little concern for deficits. Rest assured, though, the limitations of our endless foreign adventurism and spending will become apparent to everyone at some point in time.
Since 9/11, a lot of energy and money have gone into efforts ostensibly designed to make us safer. Many laws have been passed and many dollars have been spent. Whether or not we're better off is another question.
Today we occupy two countries in the Middle East. We have suffered over 20,000 casualties, and caused possibly 100,000 civilian casualties in Iraq. We have spent over $200 billion in these occupations, as well as hundreds of billions of dollars here at home hoping to be safer. We've created the Department of Homeland Security, passed the Patriot Act, and created a new super CIA agency.
Our government now is permitted to monitor the Internet, to read our mail, to search us without proper search warrants, to develop a national ID card, and to investigate what people are reading in libraries. Ironically, illegal aliens flow into our country and qualify for driving licenses and welfare benefits with little restraint.
These issues are discussed, but nothing has been as highly visible to us as the authoritarianism we accept at the airport. The creation of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has intruded on the privacy of all airline travelers, and there is little evidence that we are safer for it. Driven by fear, we have succumbed to the age-old temptation to sacrifice liberty on the pretense of obtaining security. Love of security, unfortunately, all too often vanquishes love of liberty.
Unchecked fear of another 9/11-type attack constantly preoccupies our leaders and most of our citizens, and drives the legislative attack on our civil liberties. It's frightening to see us doing to ourselves what even bin Laden never dreamed he could accomplish with his suicide bombers.
We don't understand the difference between a vague threat of terrorism and the danger of a guerilla war. One prompts us to expand and nationalize domestic law enforcement while limiting the freedoms of all Americans. The other deals with understanding terrorists like bin Laden, who declared war against us in 1998. Not understanding the difference makes it virtually impossible to deal with the real threats. We are obsessed with passing new laws to make our country safe from a terrorist attack. This confusion about the cause of the 9/11 attacks, the fear they engendered, and the willingness to sacrifice liberty prompts many to declare their satisfaction with the inconveniences and even humiliation at our nation's airports.
There are always those in government who are anxious to increase its power and authority over the people. Strict adherence to personal privacy annoys those who promote a centralized state.

As a this old armadillo found in some old glyphs of a strange nature put to a picture that is made in a chaotic form and color it stated in strange words.
I live in Texas on a retired fixed income I know that the only way that I can support all is with a blessing and hope that no one will ever give up
being for the people.
The founding fathers created this a democratic republic concept for the people which was paid and built with the hard work an blood of all with free will of citizens that included “the Grand Old Party of Lincoln” and a GOP of men of moderation good will and common sense for all.
Not a GOP based on personal greed and arrogance of power is ownership of all which creates nothing more that a corporate fascist form of a communist nation.
Where we are but slaves to a system not as free people to choose the pursuit of our own paths.
I do have a suggestion or a concept in that the DNC
set up a intelligence and rapid response operation that allows for a central way to monitor and communicate with all DNC unites and allied elements as the law will allow.
This action will allow for their ability to intercede whit a plan of action to answer with debunking or action so as to expose, bring light and truth when these under handed elements that want to make greed the key word to bring down the middle class to being slave labor for the major corporations by owning a administration, congress or state, city and village.
This system needs to be set up so all members can share in a instance any goings on at the national, local and real levels that seem to have a pattern of some PR firm propaganda form of communication guided from the likes of Karl Rove or agent and kind from their special collations attacking social security, medi care, education, or the sell out of this country to Communist China.
Just think of what would happen if China decides to nationalize a said that they now own all business and propriety and also they demand payment of these loans to the federal government or they will come and repossess it with their army.
Maybe India decides to nationalize and says the government owns all the medical, financial files, factories etc.
Just think, who will they sell it to or charge you to get it back?

As all armadillo find these human glyphs are sometime hard to put in a context it does show up their hope in looking at the truth of the earth we all are a part of.
But there are these ugly parts of what is called human emotions that are from the dark side of the human condition one presents itself in the blindness of greed with the scent of which leads into the darkness of self destruction and all that are blinded with the smell to stumble in the chaos of destroying the very element that gives all the essence of being.
The glyphs refer to a observation by a scribe that has a soul for all.
While it is on this misshaped living element called earth which is just one speck in this endless journey in the void of time and space that we must thank them for this attention for the welfare of all. With adieu I bid you check this out for your self ,please go to the source for more light on this stewardship.
The forest for the greed
Tuesday, January 4, 2005
By: Editorial, St. Petersburg Times / Florida
Bush administration rules, forest regulations have been reworded
less accountability to the public.
Polluters helped the Bush administration write its energy policy. The pharmaceutical industry got its way in the Medicare drug law. So why would anyone be surprised that new federal forest regulations favor loggers over the public interest?
The man who oversees the U.S. Forest Service is Mark Rey, a lobbyist for the timber industry before his appointment, and it is clear whose side he is on. Since he has been in the job, the Forest Service has grown increasingly hostile to its own professional staff. One of those was biologist Kristine Shull, who was threatened with pay cuts or firing if she didn't sign off on the sale of 3,000 acres of old-growth trees by stating, falsely, that they were dead, the online magazine Salon reported. She refused and the stress drove her into medical leave, giving her supervisor an opening to approve the sale. Dozens of biologists, botanists and ecologists told similar stories.
We know who will have the most influence under the new regulations - business interests with friends in high places. The timber industry made sure of that by contributing generously to the campaigns of Bush and other Republicans, and even a few Democrats. Three of Bush's elite fundraisers are top timber executives, the Los Angeles Times reported.
You don't have to be a tree-hugger to understand the danger. Clear-cut logging and other development in federal forests threaten not only wildlife but also the quality of human life. Forests help purify water and air and provide a variety of recreational opportunities. When they are logged, taxpayers are the losers because it costs the government more to build logging roads than it receives in payments.
But there are these ugly parts of what is called human emotions that are from the dark side of the human condition one presents itself in the blindness of greed with the scent of which leads into the darkness of self destruction and all that are blinded with the smell to stumble in the chaos of destroying the very element that gives all the essence of being.
The glyphs refer to a observation by a scribe that has a soul for all.
While it is on this misshaped living element called earth which is just one speck in this endless journey in the void of time and space that we must thank them for this attention for the welfare of all. With adieu I bid you check this out for your self ,please go to the source for more light on this stewardship.
The forest for the greed
Tuesday, January 4, 2005
By: Editorial, St. Petersburg Times / Florida
Bush administration rules, forest regulations have been reworded
less accountability to the public.
Polluters helped the Bush administration write its energy policy. The pharmaceutical industry got its way in the Medicare drug law. So why would anyone be surprised that new federal forest regulations favor loggers over the public interest?
The man who oversees the U.S. Forest Service is Mark Rey, a lobbyist for the timber industry before his appointment, and it is clear whose side he is on. Since he has been in the job, the Forest Service has grown increasingly hostile to its own professional staff. One of those was biologist Kristine Shull, who was threatened with pay cuts or firing if she didn't sign off on the sale of 3,000 acres of old-growth trees by stating, falsely, that they were dead, the online magazine Salon reported. She refused and the stress drove her into medical leave, giving her supervisor an opening to approve the sale. Dozens of biologists, botanists and ecologists told similar stories.
We know who will have the most influence under the new regulations - business interests with friends in high places. The timber industry made sure of that by contributing generously to the campaigns of Bush and other Republicans, and even a few Democrats. Three of Bush's elite fundraisers are top timber executives, the Los Angeles Times reported.
You don't have to be a tree-hugger to understand the danger. Clear-cut logging and other development in federal forests threaten not only wildlife but also the quality of human life. Forests help purify water and air and provide a variety of recreational opportunities. When they are logged, taxpayers are the losers because it costs the government more to build logging roads than it receives in payments.

This armadillo has seen a bit of the dark side but this one translated set of glyphs speaks of all the focus groups, manipulations of stats along with misdirected PR storys and terrorizing statements create chaos to hide thievery and schulldurgy thus being able to cover over and take what ever they want?
Truly this is something humans and armadillos need to think about?
Just makes me wonder in light of the payoff to "Williams" for selling a program how many of your tax dollars are paying back those putting the money up for this "PR dog and pony show" are going to get back?
$ billions under the table at this $40 million plus paltry ballroom dinner dance?
I was taught that this was a country for the people A democratic republic NOT a Corporate Communist country with CEO Cheney telling Karl Rove to have the PR boyz create a Resident President Mouth to sing the songs of "screw the people" and a Halliburton ex CEO telling us to
"go .... Ourselves"?
Just check this out?
You know that 24% of the people live on starvation diets, and Red-mart (sorry I mean Wal-mart) will be come the National company store like Gumps was in communist Russia?

Remember it is the wisdom of the great Armadillo shell awareness of phylos’dillogy.
Although I'm just one of the old armadillos in line of many, to me education is the light that leads to a better world ("still a dreamer") lets help light the torch of knowledge for the truth not the greatest destroyer of all human endeavors, that would be blind hate.
I hope that you would take care to check this out and pass it on.
So cut and paste in your browser , who knows?

The Polls of the non-people
What is the reality of presidential lack of truth and misdirection?
Just a Armadillo thought from the diggings 'by Barrow A. Dillo.
Their are more than a canned group of phone numbers
on a list to ask about what's going on?
There happens to be a great nation of over 230 million people not just a few and to assume that you ask a few that this is a truth is truly and arrogant form of the non-think.
When a paid professional demographer employed to ask a psychic slanted and loaded questions that add up some words to get the right numbers for stats, charts and chats.
So lets look at the Who, Where, Why, When the political thieves stole the country and with 4 more years to sell it off to any with a purse that opens and easily pours under the table of greed ?
Lets call the new republicans what they really are?
The New Poll and lack of intelligence Terrorists
The rats of misdirected thought and images created by major rat Karl Rove and the rat right gang.
The writers of the shadow truths that break wind when confronted by an honest question.
The GOP is new rise of a Neo American Nazi fascist party, they are a group that look to the "Christian Right ” and use the basic predigests of looking down on the Poor, children, elderly, disabled, Catholics, Jews, and any lesser religions along with the debasement of all who would oppose them and their right to power and what they think is the best for all of use in their quest for greed, power, for the honor and dark blessings for the image of the buck.
Hitler could not have created a group so well, He would be very happy to see the hate, greed and power at its best with lapel flags on black suits with red ties and dress black jack boots and gray matter non think uniforms.
I know that the real Lincoln republicans are still out there working heard trying to keep family and hearth together even as they are Put on a slot of demographic levels so the PR boyz can create the stage set and photo-op for that 15 minutes of feel good so as to blind the truth of the real world.
Is that the fine men and women that have souls of honor are being murdered, maimed, wounded for this “Wag the dog war” for the oil, drugs, and the uncontrolled spending of tax payers money for the corporate welfare of the "unbidding" and the greed of soulless merchants of special interest few? Along with the Benedict Arnold Corporate outsource rat list and the Great Commie-mart sell out by Wal-Mart Soon your personnel debit and your personal medical information will belong to some other country that you can’t even find.
Every day your freedom is being taken away, not by the terrorists but in the name of righteous greed, desire for power for a personal image and the fear that you might have an idea that would put them out of their jobs if in this process you might discover all the hidden and open lies with the under the table perks.
Enough, I say.
Look all around you and see the real world not a marketing PR spin man with (expert black brief case and title) selling snake oil and telling you its fresh water.
