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...

4000 wouldn't have been legal tonight. It didn't happen within 24 hours. I suspect you will get a chance at 4000 and 5000 maybe 6000 on this thread.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

I don't think the Iraqi Army and liberals have seen anything yet. They should get ready for shock and awesome.

[TomGuy]

Things are moving so fast in this "quagmire" that a web page would be outdated by tomorrow! LOL

We need that 30-day pause Reuters said we were in just so we can have the quagmire.

[SoldiersGirl]

you forgot to include Ahmeds last name *g*

[Green]

OMG! mouth falling open over here..I can't believe he said that. LOL Did you see Shep just ignore it and go on talking. Shep seemed like he was a little taken back.

[Tree of Liberty]

Hey, SG. Been a few days.

The guy on Fox is a retired Gunnery Sargent. Still haven't caught his name.

[crobnson]

Do you know what this picture is? Who or where?

[Fledermaus]

I saw some idiot comedian on Conan last night. He was doing a bad joke and using Fox News as his set up.

He said it was the best coverage but obvious propaganda.

Talk about left wing stupidity. I forsee the Dems getting so far to the left, anything that isn't slanted towards their worthless point of view is gov't propaganda and right wing conspiracy.

Funny, most of us call it ojective and true mainstream.

I pray 2004 is another 1972 or 1984!

[SamAdams76]

FoxNews has been rocking tonight. I was hoping to get a good night sleep but I guess not. At least I can sleep in late tomorrow.

As an East Coaster, I've always wondered about the West Coast being three hours behind us. Right now, it is 9:15PM on the West Coast and Hannity & Colmes is evidently on FoxNews right now out there (even though we East Coasters saw it three hours ago).

It must drive the West Coasters crazy to be reading all the breaking news on this thread about what FoxNews is currently showing on the East Coast, knowing that they have to wait another three hours to see it themselves.

[Clean_Sweep]

Getting real close, hear them laughing?

[GOPyouth]

We've got Shep live right now in Cali.

[Petronski]

Multiple reports and then open-mouthed laughter?

[Mrs.Liberty]

It was posted earlier today, or yesterday. The guy is a Navy Corpsman, the baby is a new born, helped into this world by one of the "infidels".

[Scott from the Left Coast]

Wow...I heard machine guns of some type and what definitely sounded like mortars.

[nicmarlo]

I think Shep also politely chastise him for calling the Iraqis idiots....he told a story of 2 16-year-old boys who had to take up arms under threat of death if retreat or surrender. Shep is all class.

[Grenada]

Hello SG. Thank you so much for the "Elite athlete" story, it gave me chills.

[GOPyouth]

What you see on Fox is what we get. :)

[Tree of Liberty]

Fox - Greg Kelly is back. RG troops surrender. Hands up, afraid. Lost signal. No U.S. casualties. One disabled Abrams.

[Clean_Sweep]

Does anyone understand what they are saying on the web cam?

[crobnson]

That's what I was hoping. Beautiful!!
