If we get proof alot of chems and germs are in Syria what do we do? I suggest telling syria to cough them up or we are coming for them.

[bluefish]

I haven't slept, showered, shaved or hit the head since this war started. I'm not quitting now!!

Just kidding. Actually, don't think I've logged near the hours as most here. Just thought I'd get to see some nice American tanks on the Bagcam last night. Unfortunately, I have to leave shortly, so you all should see some good stuff tonight while I'm gone.

[Cate]

oh, and the dems are not orgasm worthy :)

[nicmarlo]

now we're back to the sound effects, I see (well, I don't see, but I saw).

[cajungirl]

Glad you are proud,,I would be popping. Your family sounds all american!

[EaglesUpForever]

Oh, we'd need 12 years of inspections, first...

[Armed Civilian]

Thanks, now how did that happen? :^(

[glock rocks]

LOL!

your tagline was hacked

[Armed Civilian]

I haven't opened up that window yet. Maybe it's Achmed's moustache?

[Jackie-O]

I was laughing with my bro today about how all of interviews/appearances look just like a bad SNL cameo!!
He's really a very stupid man.

[nicmarlo]

Need to call it quits for tonight....after being on here till 4:00 this a.m., I'm pretty tired....see you all tomorrow. God bless and protect our troops. Night everybody.

[cajungirl]

My favorite dead joke...

A little boy was at Sunday School, and he asked his teacher where Lazarus was living now. The teacher responded that Lazarus was dead. The boy replied... "Again???"

Thanks for that. I just read it outloud to my husband and he thinks I actually knew a joke!

[cyberian_cartoon]

OH, family is fervently American...and republican. Except for Mom, she voted for Carter once and we still haven't forgiven her! But we love her anyway.

Oh how funny --

Just saw a report on The News Hour (Jim Lehrer), with an LA Times reporter who is in Baghdad. He said:

The target of the explosion that was so close to the Palestine Hotel was a local Police Station! I guess we didn't like that stupid Police Parade. LOL (per the LA Times reporter in Baghdad)

Asked about the discrepency in reports about who controls Baghdad Airport, he said that Baghdad Bob had promised several times to take reporters out to the Airport to prove that it was in Iraqi hands, but that has never happened. He said the LA Times has imbedded reporters who are AT the Baghdad Airport, "So I'd say the balance of truth is on the Coalition side."

Hello??? THE BALANCE of truth??? I'd say it's a little more than that.

Also asked about CentCom reports that we are inside the city vs. Baghdad Bob's claims that we are not. He said no one he has talked to has seen any of our troops, so no one believes it (I got the feeling HE didn't believe it either). But he had clearly seen RG and Fedayeen and heavy equipment coming into the city: Tanks, machine gun emplacements, manning of all the sandbag posts, etc. So "it is clear that they intend to make a strong effort to defend the city and turn this into urban combat."

MSNBC reported that Baghdad Bob is taking the reporters to a different airport, not the Saddam/Baghdad airport.
