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:

Special thanks to null and void for keeping these running over the weekend and Monday, to all of you for keeping these threads alive, the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, and, of course, Belly Girl...

The Pentagon didn't say. It's less than 50mi, though, since that's where the military says we're at, and the embedded reporters haven't said anything about CW being used yet.

Guy on FNC right now dyes his hair. Why is it annoying me so much?....

Has anyone concluded why the Apache pilots didn't burn their airplane down when they landed.

I thought they would have made the dirt pay for its crimes with those hellfire missles before they landed.

Bet they all carry a thermite grenade in their birds now.

Since there doesn't seem to be much happening at the moment, I'll tell you about a conversation I heard at school today. Two total commie libs, one looked like a professor, the other is a major hippie idiot girl who has been wearing a sign safety pinned to her clothes all week.

The sign says, "The only Bush I support is my" and I can't read the last word (s) because it's always wrinkled or she's sitting down.

Anyhow, I guess the libs have given up on their "War for oil, Bush/Cheney are going to make their oil friends rich" screed. Now the story is that the Bush Family Dynasty OWNS the defense industry! All those bombs have to be replaced you know and the Bush family is going to be richer than rich! Well, she wasn't sure that they were as heavily invested NOW as they (the Bush family) were during WW2, but they're going to get way rich off this war.

Next, they talked about Rummy and being involved with Saddam against Iran. The icky prof guy said (chuckling all the while), "Remember that picture of Rummy and Saddam shaking hands? Since he's about the only person in America who has met Saddam, I'd like to ask him what he's (Saddam) is REALLY like!" They roared with laughter!

How on earth some one can laugh about the character of Saddam Hussein is totally beyond me. I can only assume that they REALLY believe that all the horrible stuff we hear about Saddam is absolute nonsense. We've made it all up and he's really a great guy. Incredible.

Was that really Aziz today? Not a tape? I was hoping we got him. And if he is telling the truth about Saddam being alive, then why wasn't Saddam standing there with him?

Such lies.

[texxie]

yes that one

They have intel that the RG has been ordered to use CW on us once we pass the "red line".

It occurred to me that the use of chemicals on our troops may be the 'go' signal for a similar terrorist attack here in the United States. Remember how all the talking heads seemed certain that the beginning of the Iraq conflict would spur terrorist attacks here? Well, either we've been able to stop them all, or they don't have the capability to hit us right now.

That stuff about creating the laws is the exact sort of mindset of the Muslim movement among many blacks in the United States. Essentially they believe they created everything and we tricked them out of it. It is funny, except that they believe it. A lot of rappers incorporate it in their music.

The only Bush I support is my own.

Thats the best the libs can come up with for protest signs.
