April 8, 2003 -- YESTERDAY, our Marines crossed the waters of Babylon, swimming their combat vehicles through river currents to press deeper into Baghdad - and taking the Iraqis utterly by surprise. The Army's 3rd ID has established an armored presence in the heart of Saddam's capital. The Screaming Eagles of the 101st scoured Najaf and Karbala clean of regime hardliners. Our forces have demonstrated an innovative mastery of urban warfare, embarrassing critics who predicted disaster in the streets.

Forget the French and Germans, to whom honesty is an incomprehensible concept

What more is there to say?

But a person has to wonder: As they see Iraqi children running out to welcome our troops, don't any of America's critics, foreign or domestic, suspect they might have been wrong about Saddam's innocence? Guess not. They've moved on. Not one film star is making an effort to go to Iraq to actually do something for the millions who suffered under Saddam. The antiwar movement was a fad for moral lightweights eager to portray themselves as heroes.

We all know where the heroes are today. They're in Iraq, making history.

Bravo, Mr. Peters!

"Forget the French and Germans..."

NEVER forget the Friggin' Frogs and Sour Krauts! The are not our friends, nor will they be for the forseeable future!

And when we have sorted through the archived documentation of the evil connections between the Saddam regime and these selfserving Saddam allies we need to publicly denounce them (along with all the others we find connected).
