MOSUL, Iraq

[RightWhale]

they need to string their bodies up and parade them through the streets. Of course, we are more civilized than that

Dharma requires their heads be placed on pikes in front of the city gate for one month so the populace receives comfort from the certain knowledge. The alternative, playing polo with their skulls, is not so effective in getting the news to as many citizens as possible.

[PhiKapMom]

That's what I thought too when the Fox reporter in Baghdad reported Al Jazerra was reporting that news being picked up by satellite owners in Baghdad.

[Poohbah]

BTW, this news just breaks my (expletive deleted) heart.

[Dead Dog]

Nothing warms my heart more than the thought of his sons killed by our son's at the point of an American rifle. Now, time for Daddy.

[steveegg]

Speaking of Elvis, where's that cartoon of him, Bin Laden and Saddam bickering over the conditions?

[PhiKapMom]

You will be lighting it up -- WH now reporting that DoD will make the announcement.

Fox expects a statement then to follow from the President!

Somebody is 30 million richer today. Uday and Qusay's scalps were worth 15 million per.

But what is nicer is that if Iraqi's are dropping dimes on the "feared ones", things aren't as bleak in Iraq as the lamestream meida would have one believe.

Big time salute to the troops and thanks for protecting my grandkids.

[Squantos]

So your opnion is driven by what others may do ,percieve, or "say" versus getting the job done and collecting possible intelligence available. .....How nice.

Stay safe !

[Grampa Dave]

This whole thing is being handled a lot different from all of the Reuters and CNN bs stories.

Fox has the exclusive, and the rest of the lying mediots are not there.

Also, the apparent quick comments by the White House are very different than previous "Wait and See" comments re past events.

[PhiKapMom]

Make my day which means the RATs are scrambling.

Olympia Snowe was on Fox News this morning about this and did a wonderful job of supporting the President, our military, and our intelligence community.

Was really impressed with her on Fox and that says volumes since I am usually 180 the other way.

Olympia Snowe knows the Intelligence and was all pro-Administration on the fact we went into Iraq and removed this brutal regime.

[Some hope remaining.]

Thanks for the pics. Looks like this house is a little more solidly built than mine. I was wondering why it would take the whole 101st and a four hour gunbattle. :)

Call your bump and raise you an Iranian mula

How about a little Toby Keith? It just seems appropriate given the recent events. :)

Well, a man come on the 6 o'clock news,
Said somebody's been shot, somebody's been abused.
Somebody blew up a building, somebody stole a car.
Somebody got away. somebody didn't get too far, yeah.
They didn't get too far.
Grandpappy told my pappy: "Back in my day, son,
"A man had to answer for the wicked that he done.
"Take all the rope in Texas, find a tall oak tree,
"Round up all of them bad boys, hang them high in the street,
"For all the people to see that:

"Justice is the one thing you should always find.
"You got to saddle up your boys,
"You got to draw a hard line.
"When the gunsmoke settles, we'll sing a victory tune.
"We'll all meet back at the local saloon,
"We'll raise up our glasses against evil forces,
"Singing: 'Whiskey for my men, beer for my horses.'"

We got too many gangsters doing dirty deeds,
Too much corruption, too much crime in the streets.
It's time the long arm of the law put a few more in the ground.
Send 'em all to their maker and he'll settle 'em down:
You can bet he'll settle 'em down 'cause,

Justice is the one thing you should always find.
You got to saddle up your boys,
You got to draw a hard line.
When the gunsmoke settles, we'll sing a victory tune.
We'll all meet back at the local saloon,
We'll raise up our glasses against evil forces,
Singing: "Whiskey for my men, beer for my horses."
"Whiskey for my men, beer for my horses."

You know that justice is the one thing you should always find.
You got to saddle up your boys,
You got to draw a hard line.
When the gunsmoke settles, we'll sing a victory tune.
We'll all meet back at the local saloon,
We'll raise up our glasses against evil forces,
Singin': "Whiskey for my men, beer for my horses."
Singin': "Whiskey for my men, beer for my horses."

Is Bush going to speak???

[mathluv]

The dims certainly don't want an economic recovery of any kind. Any attacks on W that will damage him or the economy are what they want.

[gov_bean_ counter]

It is possible that someone resembling Saddam has been in a DOD freezer for a long time. Unable to confirm a DNA match, getting these two could complete the loop.

Any pronouncements yet from the mainstream media about how this is such a horrible setback for us, because all we succeeded in doing was enraging the dreaded "Arab Street"?

[My2Cents]

Olympia Snowe knows the Intelligence and was all pro-Administration on the fact we went into Iraq and removed this brutal regime.

Good report on Olympia Snowe. She may be a RINO, but she's OUR RINO....

What's disgusting is that the Democrats know the intelligence too, and yet they persist to spin lies about what we knew going into Iraq.

[PhiKapMom]

This is great to have Fox News as the only media broadcast group on the ground there. Don't know who the print media is there.

Al Jazerra reporting his two sons and grandson killed I think carries a lot of weight this time. None of the Americans are wrong about this.

Scott McClellan ignored the old hag Thomas when she wanted to ask a question during the WH press briefing. Scott saying news will come from the Pentagon.
