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

I had a problem with my Mozilla v1.2b browser the other day which use to load the webcam links. I installed v1.3 and so far, so good. I use IE v6.0 and Netscape v4.8 with no problems.

What did the reporter tell her?
To: fellowpatriot
Gee, do you think his body guard had a double? Not sure. I'll have to consult my stand-in on that one. :-)

Does the entire world pretty much use Arabic numerals now?

I think Fox said the reporter replied "I don't know"

Whoops - see post #15 this thread. He actually said:
"They SPELL in squiggles." Pretty close, but I want to get the Shepisms accurate after all... :)

Seeing the man in the street hitting a poster of Saddam with his shoe screaming "He killed millions of us" is almost too much to bear. It's a mixture of jubilation, vindication and a stark realization of the true terror of Saddam Hussein. I can't imagine how any leftist can possibly show his or her face for at least a month. This is unbelievable. Thank God for George W Bush!

Don't know if this is accurate or not, but it appears the Hindis don't use Arabic numerals...

Fox showing people punching, kicking and slamming shoes at a poster of Saddam If the Shiites could only find his dead body... it would not be a pretty sight.
To: fellowpatriot
We need to bring in the Iraqi Opposition to act as MPs and restore civil authority.

Neil Cavuto had a great commentary yesterday. He linked these "naive or stupid, or both" people to flat earth society folks. Totally apt.

I wonder if they are doing it out of fear or jubilation.
They've been living under saddam for so long, and have been fed so much bs about us.

Ollie said that the interim authority could be brought in as early as today, when he was on H&C earlier

They don't seem to be holding themselves in check. Doesn't seem like fear to me.
