Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A brief description of what the graphic is would help:

To all who helped this get started, thank you! Special thanks to null and void for keeping these threads running on the weekends, Mo1 for the screamer, the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, and, of course,...

Two names: Michael Holmes and Ben Webster. No other names were mentioned.

Geraldo was live on FOX this morning-so, he's not gone yet.

Quote of the Day

"You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the US of arrogance, and Germany doesn't want to go to war."

[Otta B Sleepin]

That was interesting. Even though these are non-combat support roles, each young man who spoke on camera said he was eager to go back and fight.

[two23]

Nice! We are a 2 Bushmaster AR family...(the guys). I have a bolt action Rem Mod 7 (.223) and an M1 .30 cal w/15 rnd clp. (don't laugh, it's a blast to shoot!)

[Dog]

Talk about getting it all wrong.

[Vol2727]

Great news indeed. Wonder why none of the major news are reporting this. Hmm...

Hannity talking about Geraldo

I hope Hannity isn't making excuses for Geraldo because their on the same team. I was embarrassed for that FOX correspondent who for a week had been indignant about the propaganda on Muslim TV, and then when Arnett assisted the dictator came up with all sorts of possible excuses for him because they had know each other a long time and Arnett had helped him get situated in Baghdad.

Caution with that story... Duct tape... April First...

[Poser]

"Quote of the Day"

That's got to be a Dennis Miller quote.

[two23]

Thanks...this is good news. Some happy families today, I'm sure.

[RayBob]

I have no idea. Just thought it was funny (and very true).

[Carolina]

Caution with that story... Duct tape... April First...

LOL! Too much coffee and not enough sleep....

[Dog]

The duct tape kind of jumps out at you in that story...

[two23]

the 2 News Day journalists have turned up alive too..details coming up on Cavuto

[Poser]

Is the .30 a carbine? I used to shoot one. I wish I had it now, but it was my father's and he sold it and bought a Mini 14.

[Dog]

When was the last time you heard of a tank getting repaired with duct tape....:-)

[AFPhys]

Again, I say caution with that "tanks saved" story... NORDO, Duct tape... motor scooter ... "13 Brits"... no other sources... caution on Apr.1...

[ninenot]

Caution with that story... Duct tape

If I were a tank mechanic and did NOT take a roll of duct tape along, I would likely be derelict in duty.

Duct tape solves ALL problems. If we could only apply it to Hillary's mouth.

This is WONDERFUL news - thanks so much for posting the link!
