I had heard sometime ago that the Iraq flag was being redesigned. The first one's colors were too close to the flag of Israel.

Heck, I guess Betsy Ross didn't get it right the first time either!

Sadam's trial to follow shortly?

The timing of this vis a vis the fat slob's propoganda film is pretty sweet.

LOL... Over on DU, they're speculating that the early handover was all a sneaky Bush plot to distract attention from F 9/11.

Nope. Just a happy by product.

MOVEON, DU AND HOLLYWOOD, along with media wants turmoil. They hate freedom and a leader who does what he says he will do..........

I went to bed last night praying for Iraq and our world leaders and even prayed for the evil ones, then woke this a.m. at 5:00 turned on Fox and saw where we made the turnover early.... a great move which will save our soilders lives. God Bless President Bush.

[kinsman redeemer]

Thank you, Mr. Bremer -
for a job well done!
May God Richly Bless You!

[Huck]

I just went over to DU....what a bunch of sick malcontents.

[Huck]

Bremer had one tough gig. No doubt about it. And the DUmmies are calling him a coward. Like to see em say it to his face.

You're welcome!

They have GOT to get rid of the flag with Saddam's handwriting on it.

Well it certainly proves that the claim by the left and the Buchananites that we are an imperialist power is bunk.

Now the terrorists won't have to worry about having panties on their heads when Iraqis interrogate them...hehehe!!!

Pray for W and Our Troops

[MeekOneGOP]

Yay ! More pics here, Aqua .... Mayor.

Posted in the article and MORE on the replies.

Thanks Happy and Dubya ! :^D

[abnegation]

Liberals on Fox already saying this isn't a legitimate government...."puppet government". Is this their newest montra? I can't put here the words I have to describe this idiot.

[Califelephant]

But Bremer forgot the oil! He was supposed to load all Iraq's oil into a huge Halliburton supertanker jet and fly it back to Bush's ranch in Midland, TX for processing. Michael Moore told me so!
