'The terrorists have had a long time to plan for this.'

I know, our inept military hasn't. I can't believe we have gotten this far against these geniuses since we are so f$%6ed up.

I have goose bumps and tears after reading that brave testimony. These are brave people who are risking their lives to vote and we will never forget their courage. We are witnessing the rebirth of a country and it's an honor to be witnessing this monumental event. We're watching history being made, folks. To every man and woman who fought and those who died to keep America free--thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Freedom is spreading--and it's all your fault!! :)

God Bless!

Thank's Paul for the heads up on Monday's DNC verbal vomitus...but we didn't need your help.

Bossy, we disbanded the Iraqi army because they're the little dears that did nice things like gassing villiages full of innocent people and invading microscopic (my apologies to Kuwaities, just adding perspective) neighboring countries.

Both of you Einsteins have thus far forgotten to call for Bush's impeachment. 'Course, I haven't gotten to the second page yet.

I hope the Allawi party does well, he has shown himself to be a good and brave leader imo.

Meanwhile I hope Al Sadr gets rejected big time. But Sadr city will probably vote that thug in. I just saw a pic of his parade, complete with ballons and signs.

"That remark by Paul544 really sent me over the edge!"

Yeah, it sent me over the edge as well as several other posters.

He hasn't posted again so I suppose he got the message. :-)

Big Bump!

I am beaming with pride of what my country and party stands for, and for what our armed forces are accomplishing.

Next time we vote lets remember how easy it is for us compared to the Iraqis.

'They followed them some how(helicopter?).'

Omigod, not one of those dangerous things. Did it crash on them? (from another thread.)

Very well said! And you didn't even need the sarcasm tag!

I've been having it too but maybe it's just wishful thinking. Gen. Paul Vallalee (?) on FNC has been saying we have some new options open to us but he can't reveal what they are. Could the instant tracking of these 3 captured terrorists be a result of those? Hope so.

'Yeah, a 122mm more than likely.'

Saw 107mm on the donkey rocket launchers earlier. Rockets don't need to be tended during firing if you are just shooting for an area.

Well .. that's a little extreme and places us in the same category as Saddam. I don't think that would work very well.

The only difference between Teddy Kennedy and Billy Carter is that the good people of Georgia had the sense not to send Billy to the Senate.

Haven't checked the posting history. Some sarcasm needs no tag.

I remember an old term we used to use here when a person's reason for posting was to upset and get the threads off track, disruptor. Seems to have fallen out of use but it still applies. We're good and some can't stand it. Let them soak their heads.
