I just wish the sheep in our country would just quit paying to go see their crappy movies and such.

Actual press conference was canceled because they simply don't have enough info. Brief statement that they hope to have info tomorrow.

Out of six RG divisions I take it that two or three are defending Baghdad?

Nice tag line you might have a little competition

[baseballmom]

They WILL be saying anti-American spew, because the ARE anti-American. And they can tell me til they are blue in the face that they aren't. Actions speak louder than words.

Andrew Sullivan has a mini article wherein he states that the usual suspects will be wearing anti-war buttons or pins. Ben Affleck evidently is undecided so he said he would leave it up to his hair stylist! Unfrickinbelievable.

Thanks, Sky didn't communicate that.

[slimer]

We never would have won WWII had we had the press we have today.

You got a point there.

Ya figure there are probably combined shops and residences, maybe 1 million residences, including apartments in bagdad.

What do we do, if the Republican Guard, say only 15,000 of the most hardcore loyalists decide to take families hostage, and use the residences as snipers nests?

It is also a good strategy to get group think. Picture a block with 10 houses on each side. 2 RG members on each side, 4 out of the 20 houses. They are under orders to kill anyone who tries to surrender, so they are pretty much cut off, unless they can holler across the street and trust that the other 3 of their comrades don't kill them.

They then have to fight when a US soldier comes round, or they will die. Their other option is just hiding inside with the family.

It could get very messy. 15,000 snipers is a hell of a problem. All they need to do is just trade their life. Hide underneath the window sill when an allied soldier comes, and take a pot shot from a hidden vantage point.

I hope they do show their colors, especially today, so that the sheep can see them for what they are by having a stark contrast to todays events

[section9]

Sorry, I've been at work and out of touch with the war.

Be Seeing You,

You got a point there.

They would be complaining that the reason the Germans had concentration camps was because of US foreign policy. They would follow that up with "If the US would have dropped food on the camps during the war, the people there wouldn't have been starving."

[LiveFreeOrDie2001]

How the HELL could they be Anti-American at the Oscars after the Iraqi antics today ...???????????

Honest, How Can They Be...????????It would be Career Suicide.

[Fledermaus]

That's a dire scenario...hopefully won't come to that

Fox - family members of the POW's and KIA's from the 501st are in seclusion while they get info from the DoD

[colette_g]

Sky News - More B52s may be taking off from RAF Fairford again shortly

[US_Pride]

"It would be Career Suicide."

just like the Dixie Chicks. Don't overestimate the IQ of this crowd.

[Fledermaus]

Not career suicide since the vast majority of people that watch their drivel are themselves braindead sheep!

[Tree of Liberty]

Didn't stop the Ditzy Chicks

[Anomaly in Illinois]

I hope we Shock and Awe them out of first place in the ratings. These creeps all want attention.
