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,...

SLick way to get an intel report (or disinfo) out to the world.

[valleygal]

I missed it this morning but anyone who asked a question about retreat hasn't been listening to the President....oh, wait, she'd probably qualify. :)

[Numbers Guy]

ABC reporter standing on tarmac of General Franks International Airport giving his report.

Reporter (on the top of the hour radio news) said that the 3rd ID is meeting very little resistance in overrunning the airport.

[Socratic]

Just checked Amazon: A. Gore, "Joined at the Heart" - rank: 84,686. S. Hannity, "Let Freedom Ring" - rank: 119

[babaloo]

Why is this not being reported on TV? I checked ABC. Please tell me this is true.

[valleygal]

I got the Trio thing, too. It was kinda weird. Dh said it's pprobably problems with the satellite.

[KSCITYBOY]

This would not surprise me & I'm sure the US has assets on the ground who will warn them of this - If this is the case we may have to starve the dumb bastards out.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Oh, sh*t! You guys hear this woman on FNC?

She's been waiting a long time to tell the world, huh. This is a just war.

[lorrainer]

WHO ARE THESE IDIOTS???????????????

Do ya ever notice that their stupid-a$$ QUESTIONS never make it into print? That's the only thing saving them. Even the sheeple would disregard them in that case.

Reporter (on the top of the hour radio news) said that the 3rd ID is meeting very little resistance in overrunning the airport.

It's almost TOO quiet...especially after reading what Linda Vester just reported on (Republican Guard in every house in Baghdad).

[Mo1]

had contact with "Auntie" in Baghdad. Auntie said, "Don't worry about me, Fedayeen are in all the houses in Baghdad protecting us."

Oh Sh*T .. that doesn't sound good

[Howlin]

To: Howlin

ABC News radio, as we speak, is reporting that people in Baghdad are waving and cheering our troops....that we entered the airport area almost unopposed...great news!

MAy be why we cut the power too.

[Jaded]

I'm sure. It's unfortunate (unfortunate is an inadquate description) that so many will die at the hands of the Fedayeen and their ilk. I can't even comprehend. Well, that's what I think will probably happen anyway. They are so evil.

[cajungirl]

I just read the Repub Guard is not allowed in Bahgdad,,just Sadams own guys,,is that correct.

[hispanarepublicana]

Did anyone hear what Rush said the Iraqis are saying to American G.I.'s? It was "something, whiskey and sexy" Anybody remember what the "something" was?

[commish]

That is what is being reported .. Fedayeen only in Baghdad .. RG persona non-grata

[epluribus_2]

same way Vinnie and Guido protected "establishments" in old Chicago.

[arkady_renko]

It is true that it was reported - I heard it twice now.

A_R

[retrokitten]

old Chicago.

Things aren't that much different in "new" Chicago. Just quieter.
