"Where is Mesena? Where are these angry Iraqis?"

Sorry about the delay seamole, I dunno about "Mesena" - I've got a couple of feeds (CNN-audio and BBC-video&audio) going right now and heard BBC saying something that sounded like what I wrote but I'm not sure of spelling...

On "Where are these angry Iraqis?" good question - they didn't show any footage, and even if they did I'd wonder if they were plants or just so ignorant that they beleive Saddams propaganda.

Liberals hate Republicans. Republicans think Liberals are stupid.

Forgive me for my ignorance, but what makes a SCUD different from other Surface to Surface missiles, and what does SCUD stand for??

[MEG33]

Right I know they are getting close to outer rim of defense. I believe they coordinate with another group. We can Google a map.

Hey, ddnt that British Report a couple of months back say that Uday has an affinity for 12 year old girls

So they've got Burger King's in Iraq?

[muslims=borg]

That reminds me, gotta add beer and cope to the grocery list.

Chris, yours is an audacious analysis, very bold and forceful. When I am President, will you be my JCS Chairman?

But, do you really think our guys are that bold and audacious?

Our op plans are usually quite redundant. I keep thinking there are other forces in the mix (In Jordan, in SA, who knows?).

I wonder if we aren't going to airlift 4AD into H3 and move the armor through Israel and Jordan, or make some other move to flank the RG and help 3ID and Uncle Sam's Misguided Children.

Would we really plan to take Baghdad with only two divisions?

[Jackie-O]

FN great shots of jets taking off Constellation, maybe some action soon.

[Mo1]

I have not seen him since the first night, has anyone?

SCUD is a western designation for a particular type of ex-USSR missile. A SCUD is a type of surface to surface missile.

George Stepanopulous [sp]. Setting conditions for success in Iraq now. Ignores the Scuds and the anthrax, says no WMD have been found and WMD must be found or the mission in Iraq will have failed.

I don't give a rat's ass what that little puppet says..and never will. And I will certainly never give him any credibility.

After all-Georgie worked as a wonder kid for billy klinton-running billy's filthy errands and actually making calls to billy's ex-lays THREATENING them for ol big bill.

If ABC or CBS or NBC wants to hire him-it fits. There is not an ounce of integrity, credibility, genuine compassion or honor between those networks and that tiny little arrogant slob of a human being who acts as if success depends upon one thing.

Send georgie in to see the shredder (if it still exists) that Saddam used to torture his perceived enemies on....send georgie to the FRONT LINES...embed that cowardly mouth who sold his soul to billy boy klinton for an ounce of fame and force him to grow up.

[Dolphy]

He was speaking from notes, I don't think he released anything that wasn't approved. He's in harms way too, he has a vested interest in playing by the rules.

[Fledermaus]

We don't think they are stupid. We have imperical evidence that the ARE stupid!

[GraniteStateConservative]

They said the were different S2S missile strikes, but not Scuds.

William LaJeunesse reported that they were Scuds-- totally not true, and Rita Cosby reported about the WMD site.

I wish they'd just report things they could actually confirm. FNC is looking like Debka.

[cajungirl]

Liberals are stupid! And venal! And liars! and decadant! And bought and paid for! And treasonous! and ugly too.

[SoDak]

They are christians, but not evangelical really. They are intellectuals, though, sharing degrees in History, Political Science, Music, Literature, Physics, and Math among the two parents.

[muslims=borg]

No I didn't actually...but I nearly puked. Now I have heartburn like you wouldn't believe. Gotta drink some milk.
