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...

[mhking]

He's not only merely dead,
He's really most sincerely dead.

[GOPrincess]

Thanks very much for the update, I appreciate it.

I personally am confident we'll find WMD stuff, whether this find is "it" or not...it amazes me how badly liberals do NOT want us to find WMD's. Such a find would undermine everything they're clinging to as true. They'd rather be right than have it proven our leaders are honest and protecting us.

[Extremist]

Not Keith Oberman, I know who that tool is.

[cyberian_cartoon]

Yeah, I checked the human shield bus schedule and it just left at 6:55AM. Baghdad Bob and his magic bus.

[Cboldt]

There's a man on FOX I don't really care for...oh, can't remember his name....dark hair, glasses. He's on at like 3 a.m. EST.

Beats me. None of them are perfect, and FR is a great place to visit and discuss the facts, etc. I'm not keen on much of the network talent. The ones I can't mount criticism against are Hume, Kudlow, McLaughlin . . . that's it from memory.

[kcar]

That is bookmarked and special. Thanks! But, not intending any ingratitude, is there a BellyCam link somewhere?

[RippleFire]

MSNBC has someone worse than Olberman?

[mhking]

Please let it be true!

It's worse than that;
He's dead, Jim,
Dead, Jim!
Dead, Jim!
Dead, Jim!

[Sacajaweau]

50 -60 people at a meeting with Saddam:

Like those numbers 'cause they said at one time as that's around the number of people who guard Saddam personally.

[Dolphy]

Rita's sources say they weren't eating at the restaurant at the location...funny she would ask that:)

[Catspaw]

The tape Fox is showing was taken during the daylight. They're now saying it's 1 p.m. Baghdad time for the tip. 2nd tip shortly after that, another source & a ground source after that. It sounds like 2 p.m. Baghdad time.

[Tree of Liberty]

Fox - Rita reports that targets were not in the dining area at the time. Around 1pm Baghad time, we got a tip about the meeting. At least a dozen targets. 2nd tip from SpecOps shortly after. Overhead intel shortly after that. More sources after that. Then the B-1 got the go signal.

[Warren_Piece]

You mean Joe Scarboro (sp). Actually, he was a very good republican congressman for NW florida (God's country). He is a little annoying, though.

[Timeout]

Joe Scarborough, former congresscritter. He's a good guy, just greeen. Just got this gig....and he scores the story of the century in his 3rd week!

[azGOPgal]

MSNBC SAYING STRIKES TODAY MAY HAVE GOTTEN SADDAM & 2 SONS !!!!!!!!

Dear God, I hope so.

[Mo1]

Ok, should we start a competition on when we see a tank on Bagdad cam? I am picking Wedesday April 9th 10:17PM EDT.

What's today .. Monday??

OK .. I pick Wed. April 9th at 11:26AM EST

[Timesink]

He's ZESTFULLY dead.

[crobnson]

Saddam figured that he could get away by hiding in residential areas. No, we didn't want to bomb civilians.

[Mrs.Liberty]

Could you clarify that please? I am not quite understanding.

[hispanarepublicana]

Ok, should we start a competition on when we see a tank on Bagdad cam? I am picking Wedesday April 9th 10:17PM EDT.

I've been watching for just this.....if the Saddam statue is still standing, (I haven't checked Bag Cam lately), the tank won't appear until there are sufficient Iraqis in the street to take the statue down themselves--it's a nice PR move.
