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...

Too Funny! E-mailed to family.

[Miss Marple]

I have never figured out if the democrats attract ugly pepople, or if being democrats for too long makes them that way.

I am inclined to think the latter is the correct choice, given how Ted Kennedy has aged.

I think I am going to start looking for young democrat pictures of our current group of leaders, to see how they looked before they became corrupt.

[Cboldt]

anything new in the last 2 hours?

Nope.

[Consort]

That's where they found Tony Orlando.

[retrokitten]

I have it on the tv in the other room and had to run in and see what the guy looked like when I read your post. You were right. Creep eyes. They were super dark and super crazy.

[TrexDogs]

Love the Brit buns pic. My favorite is the guy 3rd from right ... hope he's careful in his aim. :)

[TomGuy]

speaking of crack, look at this

That's bad....funny...but bad....it cracked me up....[sorry, couldn't resist that one].

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Guy on Fox now - who worked for NPR running a radio show about his type of music - came out and supported President Bush and the war - and to go to FOX if a person wanted news about the war - and this guy was FIRED by NPR station. He said he voiced an opinion on a controversial issue. (This must be in Detroit area). He had voiced an opinion on other issues - but he was FIRED because he supported President Bush - and the troops. (PERSON WHO WAS ON BEFORE HIM CRIED TEARS ABOUT THE WAR - AGAINST IT - BUT WAS NOT FIRED). Here is more proof that NPR is the voice of the American Communist Party. No doubt Hillary gave the get rid of the guy order.

[CincinnatiKid]

Anybody catch Colonel Hunt calling Info Ministry Idiot "Baghdad Bob"?

Think the good Colonel is a Freeper?

[null and void]

The "inside information" from Hunt about the Saddam strike is baffling. The CIA "burns" their mole on the decapitation strike, yet we don't conduct a secondary strike on the target to attack the "rescue" personnel as they pulled the people from the bunker, one of whom is supposedly a wounded Saddam? When a few more cruise missiles a couple of hours after the attack could have cinched it? Doesn't pass the smell test to me.

"Soviet Stratgy for Nuclear War" by Douglass and Hoeber said that they deliberately planned on avoiding taking out POTUS as they felt it was important to have him alive to surrender. In addition to satisfying their need to a "legal" end to hostilities, they felt that way the Amercian people would be more inclined to accept the "inevitable".

[Miss Marple]

David Corn has always looked creepy to me. I first saw him on C-SPAN's Washington Journal, before it was totally taken over by the seminar callers and the leftist announcers.

He used to be up against someone on the right, and I could never pay attention to what he said because I always thought he looked creepy.

Once in a while he is on Fox as a commentator for the left, and I don't like him any better now that I did 10 years ago. In fact less, because I have been through the entire Clinton era and he is associated in my mind with that.

And his eyes are scary, indeed.

[Cboldt]

I think there is more to the story. I don't know the facts, but just not gonna' draw a conclusion from a one-sided presentation. He may be guilty of insubordination, if he was told to "play the NPR news from 1300 to 1305, then that's part of his gig.

[retrokitten]

I missed Col. Hunt? :-(

He is the coolest guy.

[najida]

I wrote NPR a nasty letter about their biased programing. They sent me a canned response 'about only 1% of our money comes from the government, the rest from contributions"....

Well, there crappy programing cost them two friends of mine this week who also got fed up with the bias....

[cebadams]

I also heard Lou Dobbs on CNN refer to him as Bagdad Bob. If not a freeper than certainly a lurker.

[IFly4Him]

Yes, I noticed. I was going to ask if we knew the source of the nickname...

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Yes, 2 sides to every story. No doubt we will hear NPR's side - tune in to O'Reilly tomorrow night. He will probably have it. NPR, however, IS NOT America's friend.

[null and void]

All guys? Why can't they be co-ed like a real military...

[GOPyouth]

Ahmed and his buddy are having a nice conversation...

Buddy: Look Ahmed! Big Ben....Parliament.

[Republic of Texas]

Those crazy Soviets thought of everything!

Except of course how to develop an political and economic system that would take advantage of human nature and provide the most prosperity for the most citizens, thereby generating the tax dollars neccessary to defeat the US so they could implement their diabolical "let the POTUS live so we can conquer the US more easily" strategy.
