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...

I saw that on NTV 45 minutes ago.

[TigersEye]

LOL I plan to make or get a bumper sticker like that and rub the noses of all these VT Dim's in all summer long.

[MeekOneGOP]

. . . Notice the burning tanks and trucks he's passing?

Yes, I saw those after my post. I tuned in to FOX AFTER the 'resistance' I'm sure. (My Dad stayed overnight, so my attention to the war was diverted to domestic stuff. He left about 1.5 hours ago for my aunts house). But as they roll in now, there is very little resistance. I did see a truck vehicle with about 4-6 enemy soldiers our guys were shooting at and a car pull in front of a tank that we shot at too !

Thanks for filling in the gaps that I missed ! :O)

[Spunky]

An american was just talking on the cam. Said something took quite a beating this morning etc;

[cajungirl]

My word! English voice on cbs cam telling someone how to get out of crossfire,,am I hallucinatiing? Maybe English voice newscast,,yall hear it?

[Socratic]

Please forgive my conceit, but this always bugs me. A steep learning curve means something is easily learned. Time is conventionally graphed on the horizontal axis. If a great amount is learned in a short time, the line goes up steeply. If not much is learned over time, the slope is gradual. Please don't perpetuate (except by quoting the uninformed), this common misconception.

[Carolina]

I saw that on NTV 45 minutes ago.

Comments, please. I'm still seething that they showed the name.

[POGIFFMOO]

Could be pedestrian injuries, you know how those Iraqis drive.

[A. Morgan]

Diaz

[Petronski]

Here comes that surreal parade again!

[pitinkie]

About that reporter..she is Joe Lockhart's wife..used to work for ABC..if that wasn't posted already!

[cajungirl]

american is talking to arab on cbx bagcam,,sirens going,,any minute I expect our tanks to roll in,,yelling people,,this is incredible

[Timeout]

Isn't that against the "embed" rules? I mean, our reporters don't show any kind of identifiable shots of enemy KIA or EPWs. I'm pretty sure SKY is prohibited from showing ID info. Take 'em out...literally!

Is Ahmed shooting at something? Sirens....Poleeeeez Parade!

[Carolina]

Did you see the little rally roll past BagCam?

[AppyPappy]

People driving by the webcam yelling about Saddam. Probably trying to get people to fight.

[glock rocks]

ya know... i thought about what you said about being sensitive to the leftists who must be feeling pretty bad about now...

all i could come up with is the sound that a flat bladed shovel makes, sort of a dull gong, when you bounce it off someone's forehead. paul begala came to mind.

oh well, i tried.

[Spunky]

Lots of horn honking and shouting in the streets. Are men must be there.

[heckler]

The guys on the ground can lazer dezignate a target, the jet jockey locks on and can drop from 30,000 feet and put a missile into a toilet bowl, day or night, as long as theres not to much smoke or cloud cover.

[pitinkie]

I guess I am wrong..did a search and thought this was the same Laura Logan reporter that married Lockhart..thats what happens when I get no sleep..ignore me!
