[Half Vast Conspiracy]

I know, I know...vanity!

I just heard about this show last night on O'Reilly. Steven Bochco promised a show with no politics that accurately covers what's going on in Iraq. The clips I've seen have looked great!

[MikefromOhio]

hell I don't want TV for Conservatives. I dont want TV for Liberals. I want to BE ENTERTAINED!!!


It's something this freakin country has forgotten.

[Louis Foxwell]

You watched for 10 whole minutes? I began to curse after 4 minutes. Checked my BP at 6 minutes and gave it up as another hack job at 8 minutes.
The show bears no resemblance to truth. It is undignified, slanderous and thoroughly disgusting.

[NavyCanDo]

Advertised on Air America. Nuff said.

[MikefromOhio]

hehe

it was The Passion of the Jew. A classic. One even MY WIFE watches.

[Eagle Eye]

Gunner was a one time view. I liked it but wouldn't care to see it again.

Their Iraq experience wasn't shared by most.

Baghdad was a wierd place. All three rings.

[mystery-ak]

ROE scene was a joke....see you've made the tour...welcome home buddy.....hubby did 15mos there too.

[mystery-ak]

Ok...did you hear the Abu Gharib(sp) remarks...that's it for me...I've been waiting for this shit..

[MikefromOhio]

im not even watching this tripe now...

Mind of Mencia is on. That guy is almost as sick as I am hehe

[blu]

OK, I'm looking for the rock and roll. So far, I've heard what must be mid-east music. Interesting, but still....

[mystery-ak]

I just changed too...this sucks...I hope people don't really believe this BS

[snarks_when_bored]

Thanks for the recommendation of "Gunner Palace". And, more importantly, thanks for your service to our country.

[Eagle Eye]

I think if I was in the 3rd Infantry I'd be upset.

I'm trying to stay open...just in case they do an acceptable job.

Too many of us know too many details to be objective, some will never be objective.

But ya gotta admit that these are the greenest cherries ever!

[MikefromOhio]

my guess is that they won't...

Blackhawk Down was closer than this crap....easily closer. And even THAT had some absolutely stupid moments....

[mystery-ak]

Im just glad my hubby can't see this, he would have kicked the tv screen in by now...

[Eagle Eye]

Ok, little detail...while they're sitting around in their tents it is quiet....there should be all kinds of generators running. This isn't Day 3 -- the one SGT has been there a year already.

And where'd he get a "Be All You Can Be" T shirt? lol...

[Boazo]

Monday morning on local talk radio KVI 570 Seattle, that's
where I heard about over-there.It will keep me from watching!

[mystery-ak]

Im guessing the 3ID had no say so in this matter...

[MikefromOhio]

nah...

there isn't any reason to get pissed off about this...

its just another stupid hollywood story that we all KNEW wouldn't turn out ok.

[Eagle Eye]

What is really bogus is that there has been almost an hour of action and no KBR in sight!

[MikefromOhio]

while they're sitting around in their tents it is quiet....there should be all kinds of generators running.

Did they have lights? That is the key. They didnt have generators at Victory for around the first 2 months and had relative quiet but no power, or even wooden floors......
