Those guys near the camera aren't laughing now.

Here's a website listing which embeds are with each division.

Another BIG BOOM, car alarm. DUDE TURN YOUR DAMN ALARM OFF DOG!

[Socratic]

I just took the time to visit the CNN site to tell them what losers they are having Mr. Sominex (Aaron Brown) on, while FOX is showing the ride into Baghdad, live. Go razz the alternate universe.

[Tree of Liberty]

That's what FR's for. That, and making fun of series speline erors.

[Clean_Sweep]

We should see a bunch off retreating troops first come flying down the road.

[Fledermaus]

Repeat of 72, 84 indeed. What on earth could stop it?

The usual conspiracy of left wing morons, unions, teachers, etc. that will immediately start on the economy and lie about it.

And as long as we are around 2% growth, they'll be able to get enough weenies scared (a recession is when your neighbor loses his job, a depression is when you lose yours) and thinking financial doom is just around the corner.

All while wanting to raise taxes and waste money on worthless social programs that don't work. The people never hold these bozos accountable for spending our money.

Fortunately, we have other ways to counter their lies but the average voter is economically challenged.

They will pick apart every little think in post war Iraq, will constantly play up the "rift" with Europe, etc.

It will be nothing but doom and gloom talk and they'll bring voters down with them.

And knowing the GOP as well as I do being a life long member, they'll do something to enforce that view and will back down and water down their proposals. The GOP is weakest when it's in power...they are too wimpy.

Tune in tomorrow and I'll give you my totally optimistic view that I believe in more! :-)

[FoShizzol]

I don't think Saddam Hussein is alive. I think Walter Matthau never died, and is now parading around Iraq in a cheap fake mustache and beret.

[gop212]

Betcha he has dreams of a rendezous w/ Jennifer Eccleston.

[Robert A Cook PE]

Something's downs...whoa another one...double hugh.

Was that a Hugh Downs post?

Geeesss... Am I datin' myself with that TV reference?

[MEG33]

Wow I keep hearing something like a tank Could be a generator, I guess.

[Petronski]

"I am deeply
saddened
about the very
saddening news
of Petronski's need
to go to sleep now.

Sadness."

[Texas Tea]

Goood morning Achmed!

[Tree of Liberty]

Fox - back with Rick

[commish]

That's assuming there are any troops left to retreat.

[Scott from the Left Coast]

After that last one, they've probably run to loo for some paper and a pants check.

[Fledermaus]

In the next war, we should be able to register, verify our identity, pay a fee, and watch the images from the Global Hawk live at home! he he

[SoldiersGirl]

Rick and Shep are pretty giggly tonight too


btw, Hugh Downs...bwahahaha

[bootyist-monk]

Most of the fire appears to be directed to targets on the right, but the smoke is pretty much covering the skyline. Plenty of large booms at regular intervals. Distant booms sound like artillery (if my Ft. Sill, OK memory serves me correctly).
