This is a thread to collect all the breaking stories regarding the Libration of Iraq

"FN: Col. Hunt: Campaign so far...Shows "the amazing trust this President has in the military" to give a command like the one last night....and our work so far proves we're flexible."


If Clinton was running this show(heaven forbid)he would still be on the phone with the lawyers(and probably with a little side action if you get my drift)

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

My mind zipped to Clinton and vanity-salmonella scare after the anthrax post 9-11. Mybad

FN: "General Franks' most important focus is making sure that troops in the field have what they need to win."

Keeping the lid on info.

[Fledermaus]

I'm sure Monica would be in his circle of advisors.

Anyone notice who Fox Military analyst Col David Hunt sounds like? Close your eyes and listen.....

[killjoy]

Oh don't worry, they will just blame it on the U. S. terrorist.

A coworker has already blamed it on the US. I don't get along with him very well....

I don't want to hear another person say the French deserved this.......people the leaders don't use those railways.....it people like us.

It's interesting to contemplate who and why, though. Stuff like this seems geared toward dragging the French into the fray -- sounds like a reasonably good strategy for somebody who wants to set up an "Islam vs. the World" scenario.

The timing wouldn't be accidental.

[Timeout]

OK. Closed my eyes and listened. He sounds just like Trent Lott!

[null and void]

Chelsea too, for all we know...

[SouthParkRepublican]

"What would Marcel Marceau not say about this?"

LMAO!

[ChadGore]

Re: Close your eyes and listen.....

omg, it's fez from 'that 70s show' ;)

[Fledermaus]

Has anyone checked to see if the DU'ers are still alive? I'm sure they are over there posting scenarios where our military gets whipped somewhere.

Or hooting and hollering when a helicopter goes down!

[ninenot]

Both GHWB and GWB learned something from Vietnam: Presidents make REALLY lousy military commanders.

[Bonaparte]

"They´re masters of hiding."

Although today, Saddam failed to "hide" his scud missiles -- the ones he claimed not to have and yet launched at us.

There have been reports that Saddam has tunnel complexes under his various "palaces" and bunkers -- built for him by Yugoslavs, who are quite good at this.

Is he the one who sounds like Mills Lane? I'm at work so I can't see him. He reminds me of Hank Hill's dad on King of the Hill.

I dunno -- does he sound like his brother Mike?

[Peach]

I read that - two vials is a lot more than a trace. Something here doesn't add up.

[TexKat]

Would that be one of those american anti-americans?

[colette_g]

The timing of the announcement is oddddddd to say the least

[GraniteStateConservative]

In my language, that says 'I want to sex your monkey!'

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Col. Hunt's great. All the FoxNews military analysts are pumped up, well-spoken and very encouraged by this war effort so far, aren't they.

Can you imagine what it was like sitting in the pilot's seat during the Clinton years, having Bin Laden in your sights and a CIC too busy schmoozing at a golf course to get back to his Generals? Drive safely. (^:
