Why does Gregg Dumdum insist on pronouncing Qatar "Gutter"?

Because he LIKES to think of our military as being in the gutter.

DUH!

I got in trouble for that last night.

There's a thread on FR that the soldier they found in the bunker is a Black Muslim and it's a criminal investigation - per CBS news on television. Question: how did he get injured (if he really is) and what happened to the two Arabic translators who were suspects?

I volunteered for Norm Coleman's Campaign.

I distributed 400 flyers in my area

I held up "Coleman For Senate" signs at rush hour on the busiest freeway in Minnesota, worked the phone banks, etc.

I've never been so enthused to do that much for anyone else.

Norm Coleman is the best.

I hope he is still alive. But that's just my first gut level reaction to NOT wanting an American soldier to be involved.

MSNBC: What was thought was a terrorist act is now a criminal matter. (Whoa!) Missing soldier under arrest. None of the injuries life threatening. (Thank God).

[slimer]

I'm going to take your advice. Thanks for the encouragement.

Freepers are the bestest!

That pic you posted with Tom Daschole is a classic!!!

"...Don Cherry on Hockey Night in Canada was wearing a US Flag tie tonight..."

That's Grapes for ya...a stand-up guy.

Lots of us Canucks feel EXACTLY the same way!

We pray for the success of the US/UK Liberation Forces.

Can answer one of my own questions: there are a couple of suspects - someone threw two grenades in tents and when officers rushed out they were hit with gunfire.

[clouda]

I imagine that facing what the soldier's face would truly be humbling.

I was thinking the same thing. I'm glad the reporters are with the troops.

[GOPyouth]

Very interesting.

[gop212]

Missing soldier now being interrogatted.

[LiveFreeOrDie2001]

Everything I said in "Quotes" is an ACTUAL QUOTE from Norm Coleman to me.

[BulletBobCo]

A friend and I were just discussing if a C-5 could carry about 3 MOABs and drop them all at once.

[Jackie-O]

I pray this is true! Switching to MSNBC

I really enjoyed Coleman's debate against old man Mondale. He was quite impressive and was very respectful towards Mundane...which I Mundane wasn't showing in return.

Curious that Chinese reporters, Arab apologists, Jesse Jackson, Jimmy Carter, Fidel Castro, mainstream journalists, American university Professors all spout the same rhetoric.

I guess it must be true then...
