Good Morning.

This is the Daily Thread of Operation Iraqi Freedom - LIVE THREAD.

It is designed for general conversation about the events of the day. In depth discussion of events should be left to individual threads - but links to the threads or other articles is highly encouraged. This allows us to stay abreast of the situation in general, while also providing a means of obtaining specific information.

Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A breif description of what the graphic is would help:

Special thanks to null and void for keeping these running on the weekend, to all of you for keeping these threads alive, the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, and, of course, Belly Girl...

Unfortunately, these were embedded journalists writing/talking quickly and I think their reports made it onto their online editions, but aren't there now.

Can't find them on Google because they weren't full fledged "articles". 'so okay - will scroll around in next day or so.

But Google is so great, isn't it. Brilliant.

..Youngest FReeper?

.......an article about Bill Clinton.........saying that the war in Iraq would
be easy because of all the "work" he did during his administration..........

What a disgusting individual. The corrupt conniver wants credit b/c Dumbocrats
are fading fast....... candidates are desperate. They have to do something to tie
into the war, to co-opt voters into thinking dim Dems deserve credit.

[cactusSharp]

Ollie is one special American....wow

[Peach]

Of course, now that the media is complaining we're bogged down, Clinton will release another statement somehow trying to make himself look good.

ANNOUNCING THE GERALDO HAT POOL!!!! Guess which day he will wear this Kurdish hat!

*LOL*.

I'll say Whoraldo will go native Kurd next Monday, April FOOL'S Day.

[ztiworoh]

Yeah, to me he truly is the epitome of an American soldier, corageous but also outwardly compassionate; ready to do what is nessecary for his country without thinking of his own needs; he has always really impressed me

[Miss Marple]

That will be the statement in which he will blame Bush for not going after Al Qaeda and allowing them into Iraq.

Or he will blame it on failed diplomacy.

[The Wizard]

I've been away for a couple of hours and come back to some jerk off journalists carping away.....

[Miss Marple]

An excellent guess. I think he will have one tomorrow night, since that is his big show and he gets lots of air time.

[js1138]

Good or bad idea. I can't really say. But if youu ever have an enemy, they will be able to track down your participation on this site. If you really don't care, that's OK by me.

But I've been around a while in this world, long enough to know that radical lefties suffer no career effects from puking in public streets or blocking traffic or throwing stones at policemen.

But be labeled far right and it will follow you for life.

[spectr17]

Whoraldo could go with Kurd miltiary look. Them red berets look pretty sharp.

Young man have you ever heard of identity theft???

Not a good thing.....here is a site please spend some time looking it over..

Identity Theft

The imposter may even use the victim's good name for criminal activities. Unfortunately, the incidents of identity crime are on the rise, leaving devastation in its wake. Nationally, an estimated 700,000 consumers became victims of identity theft during 2001. Identity theft has reached epidemic proportions.

I am impressed with ollie too, but I find it interesting that not too long ago (possibly before you were born) he was a condemned man for lying on the stand. I'm glad things turned around for him but its important to remember history

"Where is the NPR interview? "

Post #3019

[Dog]

Looks like B-52's leaving England...

[Not A Snowbird]

Good, glad you're all okay up there! Maybe you're getting shock waves from Baghdad.

[Miss Marple]

You know, I have just realized that I can follow several conversations at once on these threads. I wonder if I can translate that into a marketable skill.

[The Wizard]

Buff's away

[ztiworoh]

Well, I figure Im 17, if I run for office I'll be around 40 or so, and chances are that post will have been deleted in the intervening 23 years, plus Im not ashamed of my ideology, and most average voters would know what free republic is. It's no more far right than reading the national review! I don;t think I have too much to worry about.
