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,...

[Dawgmeister]

Deeeeply Saddened, no doubt.

[commish]

lol Sounds like a HS Marching Band in the background on the bagcam.. LOL

[Wyatt's Torch]

What an abolute moron Kerry is. He must know he won't get withing 1,000 miles of the Presidency. Might as well go out swinging. Pathetic.

[Solson]

What's with the really really wrinkled shirt??

Colin Powell: "We are still examining the proper role for the UN. The debate and the discussion has just begun. We all understand that the UN must play a role...the nature of that role is yet to be seen. We must remember that it was the coalition that came together that took on this difficult role...expenses...expense in lives as well. I think the coalition has to take the leading role."

Thank you, SOS Powell.

Ultimately...the Iraqi people will have to rebuild Iraq.

So at what point do you expect Clinton to fly to southern Iraq and give the troops an inspirational pep-talk, trying to shoe-horn in on this upcoming victory? Bet he already has a ticket to Germany to be by the side of PFC Lynch.

[AppyPappy]

I have a better role. They can get their hand out of my pocket and their ass out of NYC.

[commish]

Well I will let all of you hold down the fort... Son is having Wisdom teeth pulled this morning, time to go to the dentist.

[AppyPappy]

That old pervert is probably trying to get sponge bath duty. He's such a pig.

[hawkaw]

A US Senator(John Kerry) is calling for REGIME CHANGE for the US GOVERNMENT!......While our nation is at war....this has just bordering on treason...

Yeah I think this is not a very good thing to say especially for someone who is a Vet!

p.s. - Sky news was showing more pictures from the SH INternational Airport. I think it is Al Jarzzir (sp?) TV showing the film. They are waiting for the US troops to arrive.

[Nam Vet]

Look for a coded Freeper name in a few days when a post comes up saying

"Watch the BagCam in 3 minutes!".

Got MY VRWC decoder ring at the ready.

We pay 25% of the UN's kitty. We want to use some of that money to aid these people. It is an obligation of the UN together with the use of the oil for food funds which remain in the UN coffers.

[The Wizard]

Go Powell

[Poser]

Good Morning Campers! /uncleernie

Ah. The first cup of coffee of the day tastes great!
From the number of posts, there must have been some serious action while I was sleeping.

[Carolina]

Bet he already has a ticket to Germany to be by the side of PFC Lynch.

Ugghh!

[Dog]

Sac it is a quote from a speech Kerry gave yesterday!

''What we need now is not just a regime change in Saddam Hussein and Iraq, but we need a regime change in the United States,'' Kerry said in a speech at the Peterborough Town Library.

[Carolina]

Looks like Ketchup Boy has caught his wife's diarrhea of the mouth.

[john316]

That lecher(sp?) better not get w/ in 5 miles of PFC Lynch.

[CurlyBill]

I have a theory on all of this... I think we have a guy on the inside that is calling the shots. He will keep moving Republican Guard Divisions out into the open where we can kill them. After several days of this, much already behind us, Saddam's people have no military support to defend himself against a coup. I think Saddam is dead, and there are a few people in an oligarchic type arrangement...with at least one of them working with the US. We may even be telling him where to send the units for us to kill. That also ties into Brett Baier's report that a high ranking Pentagon official has told him that Baghdad will collapse from within.
