Operation Iraqi Freedom
This thread is dedicated to the brave men and women of the
Armed Forces of the United States of America.
"Wish You Were Here"
For all the free people that still protest.
You're welcome. We protect you and you are protected by the best.
Your voice is strong and loud,
but who will fight for you? No one standing in your crowd.
We are your fathers, brothers, and sons,
wearing the boots and carrying guns.
We are the ones that leave all we own,
to make sure your future is carved in stone.
We are the ones who fight and die,
We might not be able to save the world, Well, at least we try.
We walked the paths to where we are at
and we want no choice other than that.
so when you rally your group to complain,
take a look in the back of your brain.
In order for that flag you love to fly
wars must be fought and young men must die.
We came here to fight for the ones we hold dear.
If that's not respected, we would rather stay here.
So please stop yelling, put down your signs,
and pray for those behind enemy lines.
When the conflict is over and all is well,
be thankful that we chose to go through hell.
Corporal Joshua Miles and all the boys from 3rd Battalion 2nd Marines,
Kuwait 3/9/2003

Good Morning.
This is the Daily Thread of Operation Iraqi Freedom - Situation Room - LIVE THREAD.
It is designed for general conversation about the events of the day.

Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A brief description of what the graphic is would help! If you post graphics, please "size" them so that our browsers continue to load the rest of the thread!

(why are journalists so stupid?)
To: Lauratealeaf
While my husband was at the Pentagon the Clinton administration put a "Gag order" on the military. People had their computers searched by the political appointees to be sure that they were "loyal" to the Clinton administration. Those were really bad days.This sounds alarmingly similar to Saddam's regime. Now we know why Clinton didn't do much about Iraq. He was probably getting tips from Saddam on how to run a country.
To: Fledermaus
But somebody besides me will get 6000. I won't be the only one anymore.

Sounds like Saddam's military!
I think Clinton has more in common with Saddam than any other leader.

When he was on earlier, his phone kept ringing.
I was just dying for him to give someone his phone #. I swear I would've called it and told him what an ass he was making of himself.

Jordan shouldn't get a pass.
Their King is a total jerk. He even did a cameo on "Star Trek Voyager" once. His wife spends more money in New York shopping than half the population makes a year.
His mother or step-mother lives in NY and all her kids attend fancy American colleges.
He needs to be b-slapped around.
