I have to get me one of them!


This shouldn't be that hard for the Iraqis. Heck, most of them were probably Engineering students in the US.

If you have the stomach for it, please touch in with what idiocies they are saying.

Here's one that jumped out at me, "Jeez this is about to be a really ugly day!!"

Sky News Bag Cam 1037 EDT - U.S. flag back down off of S.H. statue; Marine attaching cable to statue's neck. Sky news talking about flag on statue as photo op; no Coalition flags flying over Iraqi gov't buildings.

That flag should NOT be there.

Maybe was put there at the request of one of the locals. Notice that a local took possession of the flag after it was draped over Saddam's face. "US over Saddam."
