[looney tune]

Being reported on CNN - 6 POWs - found alive. No more information.

[djf]

You hit it. Now tha Saddamn is wherever, we have to take care of the Democrats.

[Bluntpoint]

Years ago, when I went through boot camp, I was voted Honor Man by my fellow recruits. Many told me that my twisted view on things made their training bearable and pleasurable. What does handwringing add to the moral of the troops?

[EternalVigilance]

I'm not handwringing. I just can't understand the bickering when such fantastic news is coming down.

Now drop it please, this is not my idea of how to start the day.

Regards

[Bluntpoint]

Direct your "stop your bickering" to those bickering.

[Happygal]

This is terrific news.

Soldier's Creed

I am an American Soldier. I am a member of the United States Army -- a protector of the greatest nation on earth. Because I am proud of the uniform I wear, I will always act in ways creditable to the military service and the nation it is sworn to guard.

I am proud of my own organization. I will do all I can to make it the finest unit in the Army. I will be loyal to those under whom I serve. I will do my full part to carry out orders and instructions given to me or my unit.

As a soldier, I realize that I am a member of a time-honored profession--that I am doing my share to keep alive the principles of freedom for which my country stands. No matter what the situation I am in, I will never do anything, for pleasure, profit, or personal safety, which will disgrace my uniform, my unit, or my country. I will use every means I have, even beyond the line of duty, to restrain my Army comrades from actions disgraceful to themselves and to the uniform.

I am proud of my country and its flag. I will try to make the people of this nation proud of the service I represent, for I am an American Soldier.

Created to help American soldiers cope with North Korean mistreatment of prisoners. Never forget.

AMEN TO THAT, djf

[S.O.L.]

There were 7 POW's. The media is reporting at least 6 are rescued and in good health.

What the media have not yet thought of (or reported) is that there is one who is observeably different than the other 6.

This is important in view of the Arabs view of women.

[Terp]

Me thinks that if a Democrat is pleased that some of our troops have been rescued maybe there is hope for some of them afterall most are just misguided [sp] in my opinion. But believe me there are those on the far left who don't share these feelings.

[429CJ]

"The release or rescue of these POWs is a well orchestrated attempt to take the focus off the inhuman treatment of celebrities in the hands of the Baseball Hall of Fame."

Good One, Bluntpoint

[djf]

TY.

It's easy to get tired of the bs.

[risk]

Bravely said, but I don't think Joan of Arc would haven't paid any attention.

[djf]

Since the beginning of humanity, there have been women of outstanding valor. But men and women are different. If you don't believe me, take a ninth grade biology class.

[Bluntpoint]

They certainly are better at balancing checkbooks. At least in my house.

[djf]

:>}

[aristeides]

they were found 95 miles from Baghdad...

Tikrit?

[not-an-ostrich]

Six missing of those sent to help 507--Burket,Chanawongse, Cline, Gifford, Hutchings, Anguiano.

[429CJ]

"Joan of Arc"

is dead

[JustPiper]

The troops who rescued were in fact on their way to Tikrit.
Where did that scientist give himself up at?

[djf]

Trouble is, everytime the French have overthrown tyrants, they came up with much better ones!
