I am not a troll and I will be perfectly blunt. I think the great American Dream is being hijacked by Globalists. The American people are being feed with tepid, stupid "victories" while the Global World Order is being put in place. By the way, you have to admit if we fought WW2 like we fight wars now, we would have lost.

Oh gees. I didn't need that. Lunacy, sheer lunacy. I feel sorry for Nick Berg having a father like that.

Good morning Peach. Nothin' like turning on F&F and this news being what I read as I wipe the sleep from my eyes. I even went and woke Mr. and the boys up and told them.
Rumsfeld is talking about the area where Zarqawi was found/killed is where a garbage bag of heads was found.
That's disgusting. Was it recently?

Look what just came in my email, courtesy MSLSD:
First Read: The day in politics by NBC News for NBC News
The news that al-Qaida in Iraq leader Abu Musab Al-Zarqawi was killed in an
operation by US Special Forces will obviously overshadow everything else today.
In a statement outside the White House at 7:30 am, President Bush said, "Now
Zarqawi has met his end and this violent man will never murder again. Zarqawi's
death is a severe blow for Al Qaida. It is a victory for the global war on
terror." Bush added, however, that his death doesn't end the difficult mission
in Iraq.
Does this development improve Bush's political standing? After Saddam Hussein's
capture in late 2003, Bush saw his poll numbers go up. But since his re-election
two years ago, even the most positive developments in Iraq (its elections, the
formation of a new government) haven't been able to stop Bush's slide in the
polls. Will that change in the next round of national surveys?

Good morning.
"It really makes me begin to question the truthfulness of such seminal drama-documentaries as 'Rambo' and 'Navy Seals'."
That is just too cynical. Do they use sarcasm tags in the DU?.

Good morning, eyespysomething. Rumsfeld didn't mention when the garbage bag filled with heads was found but I'm thinking it must have been a while ago because I don't remember that news.
What great news to wake up and hear! He was the most brutal terrorist and OBL had to warn him off the brutality because he said it was turning people against AQ.

Well, I guess we'll just have to see how many apply for the job after watching the video tape of this "blow" to their operation. My guess is that anyone who does will suffer the same fate.

Good point. If he'd stayed in the room his briefcase wouldn't have been moved away from Hitler.

I'm waiting to hear what the traitorous John Murtha has to say about this. He will probably stay quiet. He only speaks out to criticize and demoralize our troops.

A truly "impartial" media would have broadcast the item about the severed heads in garbage bags at least as many times as they mention deaths in Haditha. That they do not do this is all the proof anyone needs to see that they are not rooting for "our" side.

No; not losing. I honestly don't really know what's going on there now -- except for a feel of general anarchy.

Is Murtha being interviewed by Al Jazerra?Im awaiting his and Kerry's comments. It ought to be interesting to hear from Kerry, his administration would have pulled out of Iraq on Jan 21, 2005..
