ABC is enemy #2.

[mewzilla]

Guess she didn't get her colleague's memo. Where is that guy anyway? Have we seen him yet? Only Beeb guy I've seen had short hair, and I thought the memo writer had longer, curly hair.

I heard yesterday that some American reporter asked about "financial compensation" for civilian casualties. Sheesh!

Cost the hotel I was in another television set. CNN's spin is, we have to give up becauase we are getting shot at, because we are bogged down in the South and going nowhere, we can't hit the broad side of Baghdad, unless it is a bazaar, all our troops have been maimed or killed, Franks is stupid, and we cannot afford it. Everything we do will just put more strain on the taxpayers who need to be sacrificing to support the liberals. And now all that money will go to rebuilding Iraq. Like Iraq doesn't have its own wealth or oil or anthing. Besides that isn't any use because the harbor is mined, we are abusing dolphins, and anyway all of the wells are burning, welll six of them anyway. I HATE CNN.

Command and control, legit military target, period.

I compiled some stats on this and you wouldn't believe it! The UN positively can NOT survive without the US assessments (dues and programs and peacekeeping)!

[The Wizard]

screw the TV station....screw this reporter, what a bunch of pansy assed jerks

I'd have to start weeding this fools out, if you can't kill them out right, then I'd kick them out when they cry ...like this bald headed bastard

Don't stay get out

[Peach]

Why should we stay? What's the value? AND THEY CLAPPED!!!

[AppyPappy]

Oil fires maybe?

[prairiebreeze]

Wow what is the value of them being at these briefings!!

Geeze Louise!! Waaaaah Waaaaaah.

[The Wizard]

It's your choice.....(get f'ed) tell Brooks

[Truthsearcher]

Yeah, if you see no value, get the f**k out.

[mware]

Scott Ritter said yesterday the US would not be able to take Baghdad

Tell that to the Marines, Scottie.

[A Citizen Reporter]

Yep, that was a "free-lance" reporter.

[Timesink]

Who the #$%^#$%&*%^ is that bald-headed penis that just asked that loaded question at the CENTCOM briefing? It looked like that prick Michael Wolff from New York magazine, but I can't imagine why they'd give that jerkoff credentials.

[mewzilla]

Gen. Brooks answered to my satisfaction. He said we've accounted for everything we fired and it all hit their targets. That can lead to only one conclusion.

[AppyPappy]

Have the guys popped the keg yet?

[babaloo]

OMG. RPresstute form NY Magazine. Why are we bothering to come to these press conferences? You (Brooks) are just a second stringer. Applause from the crowd.

[The Wizard]

We want general Franks to harrass.....Brooks: that's my job

[Catspaw]

They don't have to come to the briefings. It's not mandatory. They could sit in their hotel rooms and take notes. The only reason they show up is so their boss can see them "working."

[Daniel Ramsey]

Brooks just read the riot act! LOL
