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 Null and Void for keeping these threads running on the weekends, Mo1 for the screamer, the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, Ragtime Cowgirl for her Exclusive Live Transcription Service™, Fledermaus for his 15 minutes of fame, and, of course, Belly Girl...

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

LOL - yes it is! Mere walking distance.

Say - I have enjoyed this thread quite a bit. The first one been able to read all the way through - and am still going through it. You all have too much fun in the wee hours of the morning.....

[Nam Vet]

By all accounts it is. Confirmed by testing in the field. Samples to be sent to a lab for final confirmation.

Maybe they can bill it as touring the home of Rap Artist Run Pissin-N-Screamin

[Dog]

We have put the ghost's of Vietman/Somilia to rest forever. Those countries and terrorists out there today will from this day forward....know that America will go into their cities and towns and root out evil.....we took it downtown today..

This is the greatest generation.

The kids today will fight....:-)

[Not A Snowbird]

"It seems like there is an IQ test for Pentagon reporters with a (not very high) maximum point level cutoff!"

I'll say. I credit Rummy so much for not going over the podium and going whacko on these people.

Lunch isn't that fun anymore because the protesters have stopped hanging out across the street. We used to take turns going downstairs and walking through them at lunch... anything to brighten up our boring government lives!

[Mo1]

Got it ... Thanks

Ok ... have to go pull out the kiddies snow suits so they can play in the backyard

I just want to know .. WHERE IS THE GLOBEL WARMING??

Here is the list so far


Notlight - The stoplight in the old camera that would cycle but no one ever stopped for it
Keg Party Guys - Media types who lived near the old webcam site
Farik Sinatra - mullah who sings the prayers. Also know as the Cat Strangler.
Strangling cats - prayers sung over a loudspeaker
HagCam - Lindsay Hilsum reporting over the MSNBC cam.
BagCam - webcam in Baghdad
Pretty Boy/Mr. Chicken - Richard Engle, ABC News
Ollie Alert - Ollie North on Fox News
Baghdad Bob/BagBob - Iraqi Disinformation Minister.
Combover - the Iraqi UN spokesman
BagdadPeter - Peter Arnett
Lara Loon - Lara Logan
BagWind - that is open for interpretation
Mediots - Reporters that ask stupid questions
Achmed/Achmed Villa The-Tool-Man Taylor
Dr. Bob Alerts! - Bob Arnet from MSNBC
Major Bob - Bob Bevelacqa
Sandy - the dog that would bark constantly during raidsBomb signal - Car alarms would go off if the bomb was close enough, sometimes before the exposion was heard.
Achmed Vila and Norm Habib co-hosted "This Old Bunker" marathon last weekend.




And a Special Note to ...
Well, of course, we've got to add the cast of "This Old Mosque": Abdul Vila, Norm Habib and the new guy, Sahib Thomas...
And Enrico Palazzo (the loud Italian/Spanish guy on the NTV BagCam with the operatic voice - if you can't catch the reference, think "Naked Gun")...
And Barf the Iraqi dog...
And car alarms.

The Iraqi people have more than enough oil resources to rebuild their country without the UN. The UN just wants thier "cut" of the proceeds. Screw them. Iraq could be a land of plenty for all it's people without the french or the UN.

"And here is my torture room, where me and my homeboys torture our opponents. And here is my big pool where I entertain my pals, like Hans Blix and Scott Ritter."

[Dolphy]

So in Iraq we see the Russian defense strategies. In Afghanistan we saw their offensive strategies (as compared to ours that followed). What exactly ever made those Russians so frightening;)

[Catspaw]

I'm surprised that haven't come across Tammie Faye.

I was expecting an air-conditioned dog house, weren't you?

[glock rocks]

Amen!

[Nam Vet]

Sorry for the hiccup.

[Anomaly in Illinois]

the Dems last year when we all got out tax rebates .. telling us to mail our rebates to their org. and they will distribute the money for us.

Yes, or perhaps we might need it ourselves to pay our bills or feed our biz, so we can create more wealth....have more to give...

[melodie]

And you may find somebody kind to help and understand you
Someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand to
Guide them along

So maybe I'll see you there
We can forget all our troubles, forget all our cares
So go downtown, things'll be great when you're
Downtown - don't wait a minute for
Downtown - everything's waiting for you

Downtown, downtown, downtown, downtown ...
