and a plane poised somewhere in the background.

Ahhh..thanks, W. When the Iraqi people are free of Saddam, CNN may have to move their headquarters to Paris or Havana.

Regarding Saddam using a PR firm (and I forget who posted that above), I think that the firm will be found to be French. After all, Chirac has done such a fine job with his image, that it only makes sense.

WOW! - A must Hear

[texxie]

don't forget the whine:)

[attyatlaw001]

all I can say is...wow!

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

That's good.

[Straight Vermonter]

Thank you for that. Nearly brought tears to my eyes.

[Mo1]

WOW!!!

[Carolina]

Do you know if Ipsos (who ran that stupid poll about an unnamed demonrat winning over President Bush) has a PR arm? Ipsos is French.

Granted this is from '92, but no wonder our guys wanted to get Basra and H-2. http://www.lib.utexas.edu/maps/middle_east_and_asia/iraqi_missile_dod_92.jpg

CNN: Full protestors coverage. Anti war, anti America, anti ___________ fill in the blank.

[sweetliberty]

That is awesome. These *$$holes out on the streets raving about the president should have to listen to this and the many other similar stories that are there for any who bother to pay attention.

Ping! Click on the link in post #2898.

So what did I miss while I was busy FReeping?

[The Wizard]

there were never 120,000, I know New York, I've mananged those crowds....

[Miss Marple]

Psycho-Arab debating Greg Jarett now. Hateful person. Send him to Baghdad. The Iraqi exile was reasonable. but this other guy needs to be deported.

I am convinced a large segment of the Arab world is mentally disturbed.

[Dolphy]

Is anyone listening to FNC? They have an Iraqi and an Arab fighting about the war. The man from Iraq was defending the US action. The other man was raving on and on about how the US doesn't have the support of the UN, EU or NATO. We know the truth, but that is the information on the Arab streets. It makes me sick. They worry about the terror of the bombs, not the daily terror of the tyrant.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Speaking of oily weasels, the anti-Semitic propagandist on FoxNews gets the prize. I take back any mean comments I made about Greg Jarrett.

Curious that Chinese reporters, Arab apologists, Jesse Jackson, Jimmy Carter, Fidel Castro, mainstream journalists, American university Professors all spout the same rhetoric.
