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 also noticed that he seemed way too "animated" (hand gestures and such) -- plus the fact that they say he can't stand to be touched -- there was all kinds of touching going on! That was NOT him (at least I don't think it was)!

Like they said yesterday in one of the briefings.... it doesn't matter if he's alive or dead, his days are numbered.

The videos do look strange. If he is infact alive and was out inspiring his serfs on the streets, why does he send his minister of disinformation instead of a live broadcast? There are plenty of journalists that would give their front row seat in hell to be in the room when he appears. Besides, many of them feel great sympathy for him too.

I still run 98 SE. I don't want to loose a bunch of programs that won't run on XP.

I had NT4.0 for several years. Very stable. I now have XP Pro since January. So far, so good. I think XP has a lot of NT in it.

"Why couldn't this reporter focus on the happy aspect of this trip, the family's anticipation of their reunion with Jessica? Her mother had just said how happy and excited she was. It's like the reporter just had to burst that bubble and drag the family back down."....Yes, and the question is retarded anyway. There is only one answer: Of course, we are Americans and feel bad for every soldier lost and their parents as well. It's as if the reporter thinks they should feel guilty because they are rejoicing since their daughter was lost and is now found. They should not feel guilty but should rejoice as we all did when she was rescued.
