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,...

Greg Kelley just reported US Forces are in GREATER BAGHDAD...

[john316]

Your prayers are being echoed...

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Phew! (^:

FN - Greg Kelly: "We are in greater Baghdad right now." : brigade went down road, under fire...defended every 20 meters. He was lead tank (re. tank on fire)...made it most of the way...was responsible for most of the brigade getting through...was shot...incl. in arm...kept driving...expending all 2000 rounds of ammo...

[dogbyte12]

We are not going to go street to street. Being in Baghdad is like saying... being in Los Angeles. Our spec ops teams are directing traffic to the third I bet, and we are going to choke off some key points, but some residents aren't going to see U.S. soldiers for awhile unless they have satellite tv.

Schroeder ...ROTFL!

[Solson]

This thread would be MUCH more fun if everyone started writing their posts like a babelfish translation. :)

For example:

writing fun by Republic Freeper sewn thread to be started.

[dogbyte12]

Just heard a burst of small arms fire... sounded like ak-47 to my semi trained ears.

[mhking]

There they go choking that damn cat again....

[Dog]

Achmed Sinatra singing...on the BAGCAM..

[CurlyBill]

How about we get them to rename it "Fox News International Airport"?

Can we put a photo of Laurie Dhue at the airport? It would be much nicer to look at!!

[Dawgmeister]

It's time to pray to Allah and kiss your buns goodby!

[Jaded]

Does anyone know if there are any other Al Jazeera reporters or news orgs that are totally enamored with this filth still in Bagdad?

[AppyPappy]

Someone singing opera with their testicles in a vice on BagCam

[Carolina]

He's singing, "I did it my waaaaaaay."

[CurlyBill]

Are you sure that's not Tom Daschle singing the call to prayer?

[retrokitten]

I agree that would be really entertaining, but then people complain that we aren't newsie enough.

[mhking]

Someone singing opera with their testicles in a vice on BagCam

I hate when that happens...

[Air Force Born]

Understood. It is a large city, but it is a milestone. We are no longer coming, we are at the door.

[dogbyte12]

Can we put a photo of Laurie Dhue at the airport? It would be much nicer to look at!!

A better idea... an elevated location can be renamed Mountain Dhue.
