I stopped watching Fox when they hired that @sshole Geraldo Rivera Jerry Rivers. I couldn't tell you a single thing about their current lineup, except that Shep Smith is a drama queen and is dumber than a bag of rocks.

Excuse me, but who is Jerry Rivers?  Fox is the only news I watch all day and some evenings.  I never see any Jerry Rivers.

And Geraldo moved to another channel a few months ago.  I haven't seen him in a long long time.

Yeppers....to much firepower to swat gnat.

[Allegra]

Allegra....are they shooting spitballs at you??

Baghdad is very quiet. I've only heard one distant explosion all day. Maybe it was just a really loud one from Samarra. {snicker!}

I guess all the action has been pulled to the north.

There are a lot of Mehdi thugs in that area. I hope there are a lot fewer at the moment.

[Proudcongal]

Amen! May God bless and protect our great troops!

[Billthedrill]

My take as well. They've found units, not individuals. Wonder whose? Maybe some of those "foreign fighters?" Maybe even some with...ID cards?

[Dog]

This Fox reporter in Baghdad is out of his league...and over his head.

[MozartLover]

Soldiers from Kuwait being sent to Iraq during religious holidays........

[Allegra]

How long are you staying this time?

Until it stops being fascinating. ;-)

[Flavius Josephus]

Laurie is workin for Geraldo on his new show on Fox.

[Dog]

Great news....time the Arabs helped to get Iraq on its feet..

[MozartLover]

No.

U.S.soldiers currently stationed in Kuwait.

[Cecily]

He looks like an Amish version of Stephen King.

[Ramius]

They've found units, not individuals.

I'm thinking something like that. Like they got wind of a big bad guy convention. Decided to invite themselves.

[r9etb]

NOT a happy sight for those who are about to receive.... But I sure like it.

[sarasota]

You're amazing.

[McGruff]

I hope they take out those IED factories even if they are across the border into Iran.
Our dead and wounded soldiers from IEDs deserve that much.

[Drammach]

I wouldn't disagree..
There are probalby some units moving and "doing things"..

But the more units you have moving about, the harder it is to keep track of them and where they are, the harder it is to provide support in case they run into superior forces..

Such roving units have to be kept close track of and that necessitates limited numbers..

[ExSoldier]

Anyone heard of any other units?

For the sake of those involved in this heroic effort, lets not speculate on the specifics of which units, etc. Loose lips and all that. OPSEC must rule the day! OPerational SECurity.
