Considering they are a digusting bunch as a whole,
would it surprise you? (Fox reporters excluded)

Ken Adelman was author of cakewalk and as things look today and as wars go it has gone very well.We bombed the h.. out of them before we put boots on the ground in GW1 .The entire thing lasted about 45 days. We have much more land to cover this time and kept Saddam from causing another environmental disaster.While Cheney said it could be fast ,he went on to qualify it.

Thanks for posting that information. Some people just don't like conservatives such as Perle and jump at the chance to criticize them, whether their sources are true or not. I heard Ken Adelman being interviewed recently and he mentioned that the "cakewalk" reference was in an article that he had written eighteen months ago and he didn't back off from it much at all.

I think any military or Saddam's goons that are in Baghdad better stay in large groups. When the city sees thousands of our troops on the outskirts of the city, any goons found alone or in a small group will be dispatched by 'the peons'. The rats will be betrayed in the holes they're hiding in by everyday citizens.

Big agreement here on the role of the CIA. Clintoon should be beaten severely about the ears and nose for degrading those force numbers so severly during his "reign". We had almost nothing up and running when 9/11 occurred.

Afternoon everyone!!!!!

What have I missed since last evening..

Centcom indeed reported the cache of weapons found at the "hospital" where Jessica was found - along with 11 bodies (some were buried). The bodies have been moved for DNA testing. There was resistance to the rescue attempt. You are absolutely correct to be thunderstuck by his comments.

LOL!

Wouldn't it be just like Gen. Franks to send a cruise missle flying by our web cam....just because he could!

Maybe he could get it to circle the statue a few times before continuing to its target!

The press ignored a TRUE duct tape story? The press, at least, continues to unknowingly provide the answer to the mystery of the century: "why do they hate us?"

America needs people who understand America's goodness in charge of AMERICA's press.

About the photo album:

Has anyone else noticed that the women of FR are hot!?!??

If I was single, I would be sending some freepmail. I love conservative women.

Onomatopoeia -- it works sooo well in this case.

Ever since the Church commission, under CARTER, that group has been decimated. When Reagan and Bush tried to build it back up, they were thwarted at every turn. Clinton absolutely decimated US Intelligence services and is thus, primarily responsible for 9/11. North Korea, China, bin Laden still being alive, Iraq, Iran, etc. etc. etc.....

I can hardly wait until the Pentagon briefing today..What's wrong with the plan? Are we in a pause? Are the troops running out of supplies?? ROTFLMAO!!

I bet they start asking questions about the rescue of POW Jessica Lynch. They will wonder why only a pretty, blonde, soldier was rescued and not ones of color. I wouldn't put it past them.

According to DOD web site it will be Torie Clark and Gen. McCrystal today at 1 PM (I assume 1 PM EST)

I did not approve of these statements!Sorry if it looked that way.Clintoon ,et al should be given duct tape. I blame the media for running with it,too. Americans adjusted to fighting,casualties,etc.The gloom and doomers are left with hope of quagmire,Clintoon will continue vying with Carter for worst ex pres.

What camera you all watching??

MSNBC or CBS??

[Poser]

CBS Camera working well today.

I know I'm stating the obvious here, but Blix couldn't find his butt with both hands and map...

'sok. I'm *sure* Saddam had no trouble finding it...

The good Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Meyers is still recovering from his magnificent smackdown of the press yesterday afternoon.

[Poser]

Can we get a chorus of Time to Bomb Saddam?
