Good Morning.

This is the Daily Thread of Operation Iraqi Freedom - LIVE THREAD.

It is designed for general conversation about the events of the day. In depth discussion of events should be left to individual threads - but links to the threads or other articles is highly encouraged. This allows us to stay abreast of the situation in general, while also providing a means of obtaining specific information.

Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A breif description of what the graphic is would help:

To all who helped this get started, thank you!

Special thanks to An.American.Expatriate for staring the daily threads, Mo1 for the screamer, the AdminMods for their tolerance, and, of course, Belly Girl...

FN: Jonathan Hunt, Kuwait City: Air raid sirens. "This siren actually is the warning of an imminent attack....the Patriot missiles have been working pretty well so far."

[GraniteStateConservative]

If you said prayers like this two thousand years ago, people would have stoned you.

[commish]

I'm not saying it is a chemical weapons factory but even if it is. So what?

Next will be "Where is the proof they actually made any WMD at this facility"

I like menudo--it's supposed to be good for hangovers--but when I told my niece what was in it, she made a mad dash for the bathroom. I don't know why.

[Peach]

Didn't 8,000 surrender yesterday from the 52(?)nd Division of the IRAQi army?

We heard that too, several times and nothing about it today.

[Mo1]

it was actually Blitzer who said that, no joke, maybe Brown repeated it, I heard Blitzer say it about an hour ago and put up a post.

Oh ok .. I remember hearing it, but I thought it was Brown that said it ..

My head is spinning from flipping back and forth on the channels
