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...

I usually luck into those xx00 posts. But I haven't gotten a 1000... etc yet.

Phhht! Piece o'cake! I slid in at 1,000 on The Dose (A Day in the Life of President Bush) and I am proud to say I'm the only Doser who has that distinction, which elicited no small amount of envy in Dosedom. =)

[retrokitten]

That is a great quote!

I'm out of here, boys and girls! Well, unless something big happens then I'll be back.

[Nam Vet]

Not that I know of.

Nam Vet

[Miss Marple]

Yes, Harlan Ullman. I didn't realize he was the "Shock and Awe" guy.

[GretchenEE]

Question; Has anybody read or heard anything about SH's money? Whether it can be frozen?

Someone probably already answered, but W already froze Iraq's assets in the USA. Not sure about the rest of his billions.

[maica]

Yeah! That was really graphic of Neil, wasn't it!!!

[GretchenEE]

I haven't heard anything formal, but did hear Bush was firm in keeping the UN, France, Germany and Russia at arm's length; no matter how much Tony wants otherwise.

A Coalition of the UNwilling Warriors is not able to put together a plan to aid Iraqis in installing a new self-government. This is sooooo bogus.

Second rule of management: Never reward incompetence.

[GretchenEE]

Thanks for posting D'Engle's pic.

If he'd get two inches cut from that mop of hair, he wouldn't have to fuss over it so much in the wind.

He's not that *pretty*, IMHO.

[Mjaye]

Behold, Richard Engle:<<<<<

Excellent, with his hair sticking up, heh..heh...

[Howlin]

Never, ever let Mr. Mo1 learn how to use the "Search" feature on FR and enter "Mo1"

Remember back a while ago when Jim and John thought it would be cute to put the NUMBER of posts TO you and FROM you on your MY COMMENTS page?

ARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH.

[bigjoesaddle]

Question; Has anybody read or heard anything about SH's money? Whether it can be frozen?

Why would you want to freeze Sean Hannity's money?

[crobnson]

Anybody watching cbs cam? Can you read what that says?

[GretchenEE]

Somehow I missed the TO-FROM on My Comments deal. I can see how that could be a nightmare for FReepers with bosses or family happening by the old PC.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Did you hear Trent Lott on w/ Neil Cavuto? Said NO! to the UN... and France. The DNC might have freed Trent to speak against their precious anti-American UN. Perhaps he'll continue Phil Gramm's efforts. (^:

[Howlin]

Not to belabor this on this thread, but, bvw, you cannot possibly be serious.

Pollard was not JUST sentenced for information he gave about Saddam. It was more than that, and you know it. And OTHER CHARGES were dropped to get a deal so it ALL wouldn't be exposed on national TV -- which I am SURE would have suited Pollard just fine; he'd already BETRAYED his country to another country, why not share all its secrets with the entire world.

You're making it sound like he did it for some noble reason, when, in fact, he did it FOR MONEY.

And you can whine all you want to about how long he's served; most of us believe he should have been SHOT on the spot and are fine and dandy with the government making an example out of him.

He should rot in hell. Surely you must be able to find someone besides a despicable traitor to champion.

[crobnson]

Never mind, it's gone now. But I hear sirens.

[amom]

Anybody watching cbs cam? Can you read what that says?

I see No service, Video not running, Audio OK. *sigh*

[cyncooper]

Yeah, I´m praying for his family, too. He was proud to be one of the few German embedded journalists...

Isn't is something to see these embedded journalists? A wonder to behold and what a service they are providing. And as we all are learning, though we knew it intellectually before it became a reality, at great and grave risk.

And it is thanks to such a journalist I would think, that we got to see again just now on Fox News, the British soldier give us the tour of one of the palaces, this one in Basra.

[eastforker]

A bit of an update,daughter in law has been called from battalion stating there has ben an incident at com center,nothing follows.For those of you that don't know,my son is in 3ID ,2 brigade com center,sitting on pins and needles for info.It has ben 16 hours since the attack,we are still awaiting any news.

[Sparky760]

Have to love the fact that both our trrops and the british troops are walking around inside the palaces...even broadcasting from there. If Saddam is still alive that has to burn his ass, and even if he isn't that sends one powerful message to the whole region.
