***Operation Iraqi Freedom - Situation Room - Day 14 - LIVE THREAD***

The Left is orchestrating it, IMO.

They used to. They're still trying. We're thwarting their will. They hate that. Sore losers.

Damn. I don't leave work for another 25-30 minutes. Let me know what he's saying.

[Wyatt's Torch]

That's because Brian Williams is a condescending, pompus @$$. Other than that he's great...

Well, I plan on majoring poli-sci, Im going to Saint Joseph's University next year, in Philadelphia, FINALLY LEAVING FLORIDA

I'm going into the honors program and the average SAT there is 1350, so Im assuming there will be a greater percentage of intelligent people there, but yes Im sure there will be some not-so-smart ones too

Thanks for the advice though

[abnegation]

Short lived. I didn't even get to hear a question. I was not paying attention. I've been up since 3:00 a.m. Anyway he was over at Capitol Hill for a briefing I believe.

[retrokitten]

If only I could find a smart, conservative, non-skanky girl around here...

Alas, it shall have to wait for college I guess...

That is a noble goal. College, especially the first couple years of college, seem to make the borderline skanky go off the skanky deep-end. There is someone for everyone, though. I have no doubt you'll find a great conservative non-skanky girl!

Duncan Hunter (R-Cal) was with Rumsfeld and said that the Congress is totally backing him.

[LauraJean]

Good afternoon all. It's so good to be back here. No one talks about Iraq and to tell you the truth it's probably all for the best.

[Lauratealeaf]

What sick bestids they are.

I like how you pronounce that word. It makes me think of my sister's mother-in-law who lives in Maine.

If you REALLY want to leave Florida for other climes, go further north. Then you'll truly know how we define "WINTER."

msnbc just showed one of those cbu105s go off.....wow! those are "awe"some.

Hunter was with Rummy yesterday after budget hearings.

As someone who has lived in sunny Florida all my 17 years, I think I should take it gradually, maybe someday later I'll move further north, but I think Philly is north enough for me now

Quilla, I don't think President Bush needs the "support" of journalists, but WE as customers need the journalists to have a sliver of a clew as to how world-class professional managers and serious men and women conduct themselves in the administration of our vital political and military affairs. They have neither the native intelligence nor the time tested character to ever "get it." Rumsfeld would NEVER operate the way his detractors paint him - meddlesome, vain and reckless. Cheney would never operate the way HE was characterized two years ago.

They mentally ill ghouls of the left are overwhelmingly talentless, cynical hacks and they cannot understand the world that men and women of real talent, true integrity and individual accomplishment habitate. They are frauds, they are liars, they are cowards .... therefore everyone is a fraudlent, lying coward.

But ... they're losing. Spectacularly. I'd have more patience if young Americans of REAL honor, real courage and great integrity weren't dying for our freedoms every day. I'm going to punch any protester if he gets even near my grill, I swear. I've got bail money, don't worry.

"Bestials" was misspelled.

Don't confuse high SAT's scores with "intelligence". Just because someone can score well on a test doesn't mean they don't need help crossing the street. Some of the "smartest" people I know are so devoid of common sense that they are worthless to society.

Hunter was with Rummy yesterday after budget hearings.

Sounds right...must have been on film.

You're still going to need a heavy winter jacket, gloves and boots, although you won't use them as often as us Cheeseheads.

[retrokitten]

Then you'll truly know how we define "WINTER."

You should come visit us in Chicago in January/February to get a feel for winter.

Oh, don't forget 1) a snow shovel 2) a chair (preferable an old, ugly dinette chair) or other large object to mark your parking space after you dig it out...
