Brit Baer on Fox News just announced. Coming up in 1 hour.
Update: 3ID soldier to have briefing about collecting and destroying 200 tons of explosives on April 13.
That's what Kerry is praying for, I bet
Have to agree. This is it for kerry! He should have found out the truth before he went and blabbed his dumb mouth!!
Thank you for keeping us all informed on this momentous occasion! God Bless our brave troops and President Bush!
Remember though, Kerry, in his stumps speechs said that these weapons and explosives were in the hands of TERRORISTS, so in essence he is calling our soldiers terrorists....hmmmm...sound familiar?
I have to say that I am TOTALLY UNIMPRESSED with Pentagon Spokesman Larry DiRita.
He is incoherent, disorganized, and keeps downplaying what the Major is saying
Did he say that because of the low quality of the ammunition, that they had continual "cooks-off" throughout the day until all the ammunition was destroyed in a fire?
Does that mean they burned it up or does that mean that the heat caused the ammunition to fail and incinerate?
LOL you are smoking crack. Most people get thier info from on line sources now.... Drudge has it. Those that were in doubt know it, quit your squishiness.
Spokesman says troops were tasked and initial reports left an "unfortunate impression" that there was no order.
"Unfortunate response" to the initial report is wrong. We (the Pentagon) have demonstrated there was a plan that was well executed.
All tasks handled well
All tasks handled well
so in other words our MILITARY and President were doing their JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just LISTEN to what he's saying instead of critiquing it!
Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but the 7,000 tons destroyed was destroyed with the rest of the 250tons. It was basically used as detonation for the 250.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
FReeRegards in a FReeRepublic, OXEN!
Too bad.
This is on CNN, MSNBC and Fox,,,it is being reported on by a cool soldier in camo and he isn't shooting geese. I want to adopt him, think he is available.
Danville mocking Shamokin? Yeah, I can see that. Heh heh heh.
Of course if that doesn't work he can just call the Major a "baby killer" and move on.
They aren't. Weapons of mass destruction are designed to kill hundreds of thousands, not hundreds. They are nuclear, biological and chemical (NBC) weapons, not high explosive (HE), "assault" weapons, verbal, or Saddam himself, all of which I have heard described as weapons of mass destruction. That is why I flinch every time I hear the term WMD used...there's too much wiggle room for what constitutes a WMD. Instead, a more proper term would be NBC weapons, which is used by the military to describe nuclear, biological and chemical weapons.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
I miss her wild clothes!
