Bush is trying to explain to the world what the definition of "is" is....Clinton never could.

The cool thing is, if B52s are going in, air superiority is already established. As if that was ever in doubt. Uhhh . . . buh bye Saddam!

Heard on MSNBC that the Stealth F-117 was used in the strikes a short time ago in Iraq along with a lot of other Navy/AF planes. Took out six targets might endanger ground troops or planes. They are after radar site and fiber optics sites and surface to air site in Basra! Just released!

Hmmmm. We don't have air permission over Turkey approved yet. Possibly they could go over Israel and Jordan, or a Saudi approach.DG while I have no clue about where the B52's are, the two aircraft carriers in the eastern Med will in fact send their planes over Israel and Jordan unless the %&$%(*# turks do something ASAP.
Bring those 3 cases of beer you owe me over here tonight and we can watch this play out.

Are you accessing those sights online? If so, where?

BTW, they changed the acronym "MOAB" to "BFB". That stands for Big F**king Bomb.

Those old maps are all when can get! LOL!!!
Lester Holt, MSNBC, just announced Stormin Norman will be on his show at 6:00 est -- speaks volumes if you ask me.
Sand storm has ended and nice day forecast for tomorrow on the ground!
2:57:18 and counting
Cameras trained on the night skies in Baghdad on MSNBC.

What in the h--ll could the slimey frogs do to stop us from overflying their cesspool ?
To: scubadan
I live in the UK, so I'm watching them on digital satellite, but I was watching BBC News 24 on-line earlier at http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsa/n5ctrl/live/now3.ram
Sky News just went live there, and the B52s still appear to be there, with the suggestion that they may be leaving soon.
To: theriotcat
Back when we bombed Libya, they would have met our F-111's with their Mirages so rather then take on the French, we flew around France. It was dangerous for out pilots as they had to be in the air for so long!

The late Sam Kinison had a great bit on it too.
He said something like "maybe our aim would have been better if we'd had a little more SLEEP!"

I still wouldn't be shocked that a few took off earlier, with the rest just sitting and waiting. Of course the first report could have been from someone who didn't know a B-52 from an AB300.
To: Constitution Day
I had forgotten about that statement! All I could remember thinking was OOPS!
