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...

No, within a hour pMSNBC will be lamenting how the Rep. Guard really just used their superior tactical ability to disperse and that they will soon reassemble to pose dangerous threats to our overextended and ever so fragile supply lines....hahaha

Yes, Baghdad Bob said we're surrounded at the airport....they killed us all; but that everything they were seeing from America media is Hollywood propaganda...it's not real. And that on Saturday, they would take Iraqis over to the airport to show that they've killed us all. All juxtaposed, like that. : )

MSNBC is dying over Bush's good polls. They keep saying he took a "big gamble" like it was a shoot of the dice. This war has been prosecuted brilliantly,,incredible. And they just want to keep changing the bar to make Bush a failure. I hate the news anchors who do this.

"Politically speaking, I can't see how she won't get the Congressional Medal of Honor......."

No way. Probably if she saved most of her comrades with these wounds. Or gave up her life saving them. You DON'T get that medal for surviving!
