Good Morning.

This is the Daily Thread of Operation Iraqi Freedom - LIVE THREAD.

It is designed for general conversation about the events of the day. In depth discussion of events should be left to individual threads - but links to the threads or other articles is highly encouraged. This allows us to stay abreast of the situation in general, while also providing a means of obtaining specific information.

Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A breif description of what the graphic is would help:

To all who helped this get started and keep it running, thank you!

Special thanks to An.American.Expatriate for staring the daily threads, Mo1 for the screamer, the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, Ragtime Cowgirl for her Exclusive Live Transcription Service™, and, of course, Belly Girl...

Re Centcom briefing: shot of reporters looking gobsmacked. Last time they had their mouths open with glazed eyes was when Putin said that he found President Bush very intelligent. HA!

CENTCOM briefer is doing a "wrap up" type presentation....like the war's over.

Note his consistent use of the past tense.

CENTCOM briefer practically talking about the enemy in past tense

Last nite, Col. Hunt on FoxNews said the number of Iraqi soldiers dead was over 100,000. Another Pentagon/DOD guy (didn't catch his name) responded that they didn't want to "release numbers" but responded like, "Yeh, there aren't many of them still alive."
