"Shock and Awe" Begins

FOX NEWS TV | 3.21.03

[Enemy Of The State]

Fox subtite just announces that the "Shock and Awe" has begun!

[Hila]

That village revelation is very good. Tuned in to the press and Ari exchange, a couple of incompetent reporters were angry that the President is not watching TV. Ari basically told them the President is not going to be glued to the TV; the reporterette said that there was a very terrible series of scenes, tragic and all and he should have watched!!!!! O brother, please Father in heaven, save the media or rid us from their venom.

OOH OHH. General McInnerny speaking. He said , "they might as well put pisols in their mouths....who's he talking about?

[COBOL2Java]

If there were children injured while playing in the street, it probably would have been done by Saddam's henchmen...

"In reaction to the news that the Prez and his war council would be meeting at Camp David a reporter asked:

"Will he be able to keep in touch with what is going on over there?"

A definite Darwin Nominee. Pray this reporter does not own a car or the ability to drive one.

It didn't make any sense to me. I guess it's possible kids were out, but it still doesn't make sense.

And then Matt Lauer said "the President should've watched the TV so he could get a sense of what the Americans feel about this." WTF?

There will be no Smoker's Lounge today unless there is a demand for it.

One of the first FR casualties of the war.

I guess I will crack open a beer at home.

[valleygal]

Gen, Mc. saying this war won't last a week.

[valleygal]

I never listen to anyone on any alphabet network. I always end up talking to the TV, muttering under my breath and getting mad.

Sirens going off in Baghdad...

[COBOL2Java]

Sirens in Baghdad again!

[Master of Orion]

Me neither! Just channel surfing.

[valleygal]

All clear sirens

[countrydummy]

I like it!

[valleygal]

LOL...I don't even channel surf. Too risky.

[Grit]

You are excused for the day. :)

[Wednesday's Child]

I'm taping Fox for my husband so I cannot replay that part right now..... I heard the report by David(Sky News) I am almost certain he was reporting that he was speaking to people on the street but his reference to children playing outdoors was not today....it was the last war.

[countrydummy]

oh, you could be right, I am trying to watch and listen and type at the same time, and that is hard for a blonde! lol lol but I heard him say something else that finally ticked Shep off and he interrupted him!

"A group of American anti-war demonstrators who came to Iraq with Japanese human shield volunteers made it across the border today with 14 hours
of uncensored video, all shot without Iraqi government minders present. Kenneth Joseph, a young American pastor with the Assyrian Church of the
East, told UPI the trip "had shocked me back to reality." Some of the Iraqis he interviewed on camera "told me they would commit suicide if American
bombing didn't start. They were willing to see their homes demolished to gain their freedom from Saddam's bloody tyranny. They convinced me that
Saddam was a monster the likes of which the world had not seen since Stalin and Hitler. He and his sons are sick sadists. Their tales of slow torture and
killing made me ill, such as people put in a huge shredder for plastic products, feet first so they could hear their screams as bodies got chewed up from
foot to head."
