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...

Chemical Ali was supposed to be in the bunker with Saddam the first night, then we killed him a second time, and now a third time. I'm not buying any of it.

Chemical Ali is Saddam's cousin. The whole family is butt ugly.

On the radio this afternoon, some reporter reported that their batallion was basically out of water. Yikes! I sure hope someone is working pretty quick-like to get H2O to our heros! (How could this happen, anyway?)

They may have killed somebody on the first night, but it doesn't appear to have been Saddam or Chemical Ali. We haven't seen a credible sighting of Uday or Kusay yet, however.

I was watching the game, but, being a Marquette fan, it's too painful for me.
As someone who went to Marquette, it's even more painful... I switched back to FNC a few minutes before halftime. :(

Tip for yuppies without a hotdog steamer. The rice cooker your mother-in-law gave you will work quite well as a dog steamer.

I can't get enough of that Saddam statue crashing to the ground! They can replay that instead of the "exclusive" tape.

*sniffle*

I grew up in Milwaukee and I'm a huge fan of Marquette--but I can't get used to calling them "The Golden Eagles." They'll always be "The Warriors" to me.

And do I miss Al McGuire.

Marquette is getting as badly routed as the Iraqui Army.

I wonder, if Saddam IS still alive, where is he? Baghdad? Syria? Personally, I'd like to round up the whole family in Tikrit and nuke 'em!
