The terrorists must be running TNN, I miss Dukes Of Hazzard.
"Making Saddaaaaam watch these--uh--uh--uh videos---uh-- these images would be tantamount to, uh, putting him in a caaaar and going under uh waaaahhhduh."
There have been a few incidents, I believe both involving suicide bombers. In one case an Iraqi cop was killed along with others, the bomber didn't get in the polling place. In another case the bomber was in line. Rita "my sources are telling me" Cosby is now talking about a third suicide bomber.
The rest of the news has been good, lots of joy and jubilation.
Three suicide bombers took out a few in poll lines, one blew up a car bomb and killed an Iraq officer at a checkpoint. Scattered explosions but all in all not the level of violence-yet-predicted. Big turnout so far. With perspective I'd say it's going very well, and those few that have lost their lives are heros.
I knew I was in trouble with that one. Any other call letters?
ROFLOL! Don't you know Saddam is soooo angry. He is in prison and the Iraqi people are VOTING. lol!
retired General Wayne Downing, is live on MSNBC reporting from Baghddad. He says the insurgents would like to atttack the voters who might be coming in to vote by bus. So far he says, he hasn't heard that anything like that has happened. I'm impressed that Downing is there, reporting live, and without body armor. It's a beautiful day there!
MSNBC also has a geek guy, giving blogger viewpoints, first hand info on the voting. His name is Will Femia, msnbc.com contributor.
depends on who you watch...CNN...bombings, no Sunnis voting...
Fox...great day, big lines...
Oh Goody...I was HOPING there was a live thread. Now I've just got to catch up on 1900 or so replies!
CNN is a blocked channel in my house.
What a total asshole this snooty British CNN anchor is, lecturing the Iraqi official.
Thank you
Denny Crane: "I want two things. First God and then Fox News."
yea...the Brit anchor on CNN is acting like he's still pissed about OUR election. prolly is...
Yeah, FOX has been saying Sunni's have been coming out in droves to vote. I made the comment earlier knowing that the Sunni's are voting in huge numbers, the Sunni's aren't listening to Zarqawi
