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,...

Bob Arnot saying that in EVERY town they have been to, people lined the streets yelling, "George Bush, George Bush."

LOVE IT!!!

[null and void]

We're bringing aid, and we're bringing something more, we're bringing hope. Awesome.

Indeed!

[rumrunner]

Walter Rodgers embedded with the third id, 7th cav, reporting that almost all the soldiers they are coming across have gas masks.

[Right_in_Virginia]

The color green REALLY shows the expression on Clinton's face and what he was feeling...and it wasn't good. LOL!

[Wphile]

Bob Arnot saying that in EVERY town they have been to, people lined the streets yelling, "George Bush, George Bush."

WOW. That's incredible. The embeds are a blessing.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Best SOD in history and a poet, too. We are soooo fortunate.

[Carolina]

Okay, who's cackling on the Bag Cam?

[valleygal]

I know it's their "authoritative voice"! LOL. I still had to yell, though, because they are dimbulbs, as you said. The lights are out in both Baghdad and these people's brains. That goes for liberals, of course, too. :)

[Mo1]

LOL .. same at my house

[Catspaw]

I'm ready--but I have to leave in about 10 minutes. As my Dad said, "let's get this show on the road."

[SoldiersGirl]

whats going on
friend just called, said 2 army bases in japan were bombed?
also, why is Baghdad dark??

[Enemy Of The State]

Thanks for the ping!

[null and void]

We've blown the pipeline to Syria already (several days ago). Say goodbye to 250,000 barrels of oil per day Syria. heh heh

I thought it was two pipelines one supplying syria, the other direct to the port to ultimtely supply france, germany and russia. Am I mistaken???

Centcom says blackout not from US forces.according to FOX.

[mhking]

CENTCOM (unconfirmed)/FNC: Blackout NOT from Coalition action...

[Mo1]

I wonder if these reporter at the Penetgon Briefing know that WE CAN HEAR THEM TALKING

[GOPyouth]

Fox: unconfirmed spokesman said the blackout was not from us.

[crazycat]

Re people greeting the Allies.

It is interesting that the further North the troops go they seem to be getting a better greeting than down in the South.

Perhaps this is due to the fact that they did not rebel, so were not let down, crushed and then persecuted as heavily. Thus making them less weary of being let down yet again.

[Maringa]

Our soldiers or Iraqui soldiers are wearing gas masks?
