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,...

That one on the far right......WHOOOO-AAAAAAAAH!

[Catspaw]

I just saw a clip of Arnot's reporting. He was feeding the family. It's amazing reporting.

[GOPyouth]

Shirelles???

[Sacajaweau]

Any finds right now would be based on intelligence and I'm sure it will go through the line of command and be broadcast under circumstances similar to last night.

The media may have a clue when we ask for air time and the clue last night was "good news". We have to be careful to protect our sources within Baghdad. We're all impatient for good news.

[Mo1]

That was It???

MSNBC BLEW IT! ... they should have aired more of the report

[Timeout]

HA HA HA!
oops!

[Robert A Cook PE]

Interesting:

Does Islam permit gambling?

(They prohibit most other vices in their own cities, then the wealthy tend to go overseas and dance, drink, and employ prostitutes.... )

(Women's clothes is usually very, very restricted as a "modesty" rule - actually it subordinates women, but lets not tell NOW that - they don't want to encourage Bush to free the region.)

Slavery in Saudia Arabia was legal, encouraged, and active until 1962. Slavery is still practiced illegally throughout the backwaters of Africa in Islamic states, but I think everybody in the Mideast has prohibited it.

But I've never heard gambling mentioned!

[LiveFreeOrDie2001]

Christy Lane? :)

[Catspaw]

I get first dibs.

Keith O. (on the Arnot footage): "If that doesn't win awards, I'm giving mine back..."

[Mrs.Liberty]

I am just getting back on..is there some new good news that the mediots are hinting at?

[juzcuz]

What caused you to speculate that they are building gallows. It seems to me that they can easily hoist a body up a flag pole that is already in existance. That area looks like a town square complete with flag poles.

[GOPyouth]

Oh dear

[SC_Republican]

yeah, KeithO is making some sense tonight, wonder what changed?

[Dog]

Do we control the Saddam Airport....and why are the lights out in BAG??

[Robert A Cook PE]

Yo Teach! Somebody mention using the Word-of-the-Day for dendrites and feduciary?

[Mo1]

Do we control the Saddam Airport....and why are the lights out in BAG??

Yes and we're not sure .. but we didn't turn out the lights

[GOPyouth]

No confirm from DOD that we have control of it. DOD isn't saying why the lights are out. They are saying we didn't do it.

[Sacajaweau]

I keep thinking of the tunnel from the airport to the river. Guess who's "holding" the light at the end of the tunnel?? :-)

Exactly, if the photographer risked his life to film all that why only show a small part. Makes no sense.
