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...

Me too!!

I'm not ready for Commie Colmes or Greta wringing her hands because the war is not over, blah, blah.

[ztiworoh]

Sorry, Forgot, will refrain from now on

I was really trying to sound like a strangled cat while demonstrating for my daughter, but my voice is a little husky. Couldn't get that high pitched nasal sound! ;-)

If looks could kill! Don't be messing with our Generals' troops.

I have never met the man but my husband knew him at West Point and worked with him in Kosovo. He said that he is the perfect choice for this job and exemplifies duty,honor, country.

[cajungirl]

I agree too.

[merrin]

Sean looks stoned.

Our thoughts & Prayers are with you & your family just as they are with all the other POW's families right now. May God protect him & all of our troops and bring them home safe & sound.

I should have added.....without height/width. Your pic is STILL loading.

Colin Powell in his interview with Brit Hume earlier today stated we were within 50 miles of Baghdad -- I think you can trust that source.

Sagamore Hills, midway between Cleveland / Akron. On edge of National Park (my backyard)

He was here for a book deal thing, and then since I work for the local republican congressman, there was a private party for him at the convention center he was at, so I got to spend a couple of hours with him... nice guy too, very funny

[Fledermaus]

That one is being hard on my cable modem! resize!

[knak]

My prayers are with your family also.

[TexKat]

Do you know his name, I do have access to some of the pictures.

[livius]

Then I muted Rush and that sound [of the Ilsamic call to prayer] was still in my speakers

That's truly scary. I think I would have set fire to my speakers.

[nicollo]

Your summary of the day's events failed to include that the Eagle's talons are poised to strike.

Haig always reminded me of an alligator snapping turtle. I met him once at Ramstein AFB when he was CINC Europe.

I hear there is no more CINC designation now in the military except for CIC.

Haven't you figured this out yet? Of course we've executed people for treason. Methinks you're googlin' whilst you ought be reading something else.

There is no crime of "spying" in the Constitution.

Which spy are you refering to who has been executed? All the ones I know of lately have all gotten off.
