Marines yesterday created an airstrip from a modern highway outside Baghdad. They "shaved" a 3,500-ft strip of highway of all signs, concrete barriers and other obstacles. Then a fuel-laden C-130 cargo plane landed, providing a huge forward fuel base for U.S. troops. Did they use duct tape? ;)

CBS web-cam aimed right at that round-a-bout with the Big Clymer statue in the middle. Too bad we can't drop one of those "concrete" bombs on its head.

"Creating" the "airbase" took less than 24 hours. Amazing! Was this in Gen. Franks' silly plan or did the press corps give this idea to our "incompetent" military professionals? (^;
Morning, all!

Mornin', RC. Yeah, they got bogged down. It should have taken them 6 hours at the most to do it.

Rats they just changed the view.I've been eyeing that statue and hoping to see it tumbled.
