Only $3 million dollars from DC for Vermont's national guard? Is it true that using National Guardsmen is 70% cheaper for the administration than using regular army? It sounds like Bush & Cheney are getting a lot of Vermont boys' blood at bargain basement rates and to no good purpose! 4,000 dead? That's more than 9/11 and they don't need to bother looking for us! How about the Iraqi dead? Somewhere between 80,000 and 300,000 dead? Maybe even a million? How many of those were Iraqi army? Not that many? Civilians? Women? Children? That doesn't even begin to count the numbers …

Isn't terrorism a ploy by which groups or individuals try to instill fear in the masses, influencing politics, religion and encouraging divisiveness in an otherwise united society? Would that include fearmongering as exercised by administrations or political groups within well established governments? Anybody come to mind? Can the greatest "national threat" comes from within? Our revolutionary forebears seemed to think so - that's why they developed a government with a system of checks and balances that were never meant to be subverted in the name of politics! >^.K!
