Man in Baghdad says there are no defenses existing North of the Airport into downtown Baghdad proper. All the defenses were on the South side of the airport.

Yeah, but the fact that Sean is waving a flag in her face is priceless.

I'd be afraid she'd charge, like a bull(dyke)...

10 Iraqi tanks stood their ground and came at our troops and dies for their effort.

Sounds similar to Patton's statement that we would grease the treads of our tanks with the enemy's guts.

MSNBC says US forces in suburbs are facing little resistance. Abrams moving at will.

Evening everybody, I just got back from choir rehearsal. Sounds like the good guys are racking up points and we have the airport.

I also heard we took out a "suicide bus". How did we know it was a suicide bus?

...this morning Baghdad time.

I think you're right. That ain't no "stand down" position our tanks are in. They're going to do it in daylight!
