Rows of US Army M1 Abrams tanks are parked outside a hangar at Baghdad's international airport 05 April 2003, after US Army troops from the 3rd Infantry Division battled Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein (news - web sites)'s Republican Guards close to the Iraqi capital. US military officials said they have taken over and secured the airport and a key highway intersection in the outskirts of Baghdad. AFP PHOTO/Romeo GACAD(AFP/ROMEO GACAD)

She should be in all commercials.

.... if all of a sudden the statue of Saddam just disintegrates as it falls into a thud...

I would personally like to see this one statue in the middle of the traffic circle left standing -- for the liberated Iraqi people to take down themselves. Like when the Berlin Wall came down. We didn't do it, THE PEOPLE did it. It would really empower them.

JUST A LITTLE BAGHDA BOOB HUMOR.

From MY perspective and with MY attitude towards women:

Absolutely, going after a female POW would jazz me up more, as would defending my wife and children from intruders would be more important than defending my co-workers.

However, I happen to be more honest than many, and definitely have chivalry coursing through my veins.

I thought I recognized those places.....they all look the same don't they?

Baghdad Bob's comment on that photo-"Just another excellent Photoshop effort from Registered."

[cajungirl]

Yall forgot ALI BABA. and it took me an hour to catch up. and my husband thinks I am obsessed with the war. and I despise Eleanor Clift who is a relative of the devil and thus an inlaw of that screeching Estrich woman.

Other than the Feyadeen then, we can say we've won I guess, since that's the end of their military force

Halls makes these strawberry vitamin c drops that are really good. I think they make orange flavor, too.

Personally, I like the Celestial Seasonings honey, lemon and chamomille. I think that's what they are. They're in a yellow bag with the Sleepy Time Tea bear on the front.
