Good Morning.

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

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:

I believe this is a media-originated rumor as our supply lines are being reported as 'spread thin'.

They all seem to have the same talking points on a daily basis.

This supply line problem is a strawman the media is throwing out.

We should have kept a list of all the "strawman" talking points.

LOL. This is what happens when one is forced to have lunch with a liberal...I lost my sense of reality:)

LOL. Well, out of all the units in the field, and a very complex deployment, I would not be surprised if a few of our troops have supply inventories that aren't ideal. But they are not at risk in any way shape or form.

You know we're doing well when the only scab the liberals can pick is an irrelevant shortcoming.

I hear it better with both cameras going (I don't know why). But you hear a swish and then the thump. It could be a mortar or a 57mm AA gun.

FYI, France , via PNN-Paribas bank in Pairs, is the currentr custodian of the $40 billion of Iraqi money earmarked for the oil for food programCan France keep the money if we don't use the UN ? If that program is really investigated maybe they would not have control.

BTW, I heard on CNN that that figure of 5 to 10 days to get to Baghdad came from the Iraqis press conference this morning.

You know, the one Saddam didn't attend. :-)

Iraq accused US of trying to exterminate Iraqi people...

If we were trying Baghdad would become East Texas after about 2 days of missile strikes.

What if...the US immediately establishes a temporary government(regional) in Umm Qasr to establish the city. Then the same in Al Nasariyah and then in Basra. Each city as they go...

That would give everyone a tangible result of what we are accomplishing. The psychological benefit from that would be immeasurable. Following that, we knock out Iraqi TV for good, and broadcast scenes from the liberated cities into Baghdad using the same frequency. Watch that reaction!!!
