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, mhking for the video links, and, of course, Belly Girl...

Terik Aziz has surfaced....giving press conference...MSNBC

Don't look back Tariq, somebody might be following.

[mhking]

Helen wants to know if WE are following the Geneva Conventions....in Iraq and at Gitomimo. Still trying, isn't she?

How about we send Helen to Gitmo so she can find out first hand -- and LEAVE HER THERE!

[Carolina]

Well now we know Terik Aziz is still alive

Okay, boys, home in on him!!

[The Wizard]

he's saying they will treat all POW according to.......

[GreyWolf]

I vote to send Helen to Iraq to find out

Can you imagine being in a Bradley with embeded Helen at your side? Eeeeeewwwwwwwwwww!

[steveegg]

Of course, PMSNBC cut away from the White House to announce this, and is staying far away from Ari.

[thedugal]

His opinions are no more valid than mine.

On your point that is true. Of course, that's not what I was talking about when you chose to jump in and start the personal attacks. I was talking about people who are not listening to Rush but then commenting that he is wrong about what he is saying, which they have only heard third hand. I would say the same thing about anyone, liberal, conservative or otherwise, political sports or shooting the shiite.

IF someone says Rush said A, and someone else says Rush said B, how do you think your input of [Rush only talks about himself] furthers the debate? Well, now that this discussion is totally FUBARed, and I have forgotten and no longer care about what started it, let's get back to the war.

[Of course you're free to give me one last reaming :)]

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

GW was briefed twice before ever talking with the press. He gets real quiet when he's real angry....kind of like Eastwood.

Think of Afghanistan...and Iraq.

[Not A Snowbird]

Makes my blood boil too. They can't just ask a question, they have to preceed it with their own personal political spin. Ari is a saint.

[Carolinamom]

A VERY good idea. Maybe he can catch up.

[The Wizard]

he's being advised that SOMEONE NEW is going to be nominated for his job at the end of his time

[abnegation]

Turned to PMS due to your post.....Arnett talking about how the POWs are being treated fairly....was that Arnett's observation or Aziz?

[Mo1]

Per MSNBC .. Aziz is saying the POW's that were killed .. were killed at the site of battle and they just brought in the room because they did not have a place to put them

[hawkaw]

Did anybody here that CNN idiot ask Ari about the Marines are not allowed to use "enough force"!

Of all the stupid .....

hawk

[Lauratealeaf]

Can you imagine being in a Bradley with embeded Helen at your side? Eeeeeewwwwwwwwwww!

UGH! Can you imagine not being able to escape that dog breath?

[WVNan]

Can anyone direct me to the audio wav of the Iraqi woman who told about life in Iraq. I need that to punch a leftist in the nose.

[Howlin]

these people in Basrh live in places normal people wouldn't be in...

Oh, he meant that don't have new Brita filters?

[steveegg]

Thank you, Angle, for finally serving up a softball or two.

[mhking]

and the one token asshole from Iraqi TV who makes these statement so totally fasle that they're funny

"Uh, sir? About the evil, tyrannical pilot that crashlanded in the Tigris River and that we dragged before Saddam (Allah be with him)? He tried to kill 47 virgins and attack our beloved leader...."

Yadda, yadda, yadda....
