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...

I wonder if I can translate that into a marketable skill. heh heh heh. I tell my husband I have all these little skills that no body needs or wants!

You know, I think we need to track Clinton. There are enough of us here we could do it. One freeper lives right around the corner from him. There are several New York City people here, plus there are DC people.

Now surely, we could see where he goes, especially when he leaves the country. I am absolutely certain that he is stirring the pot in Europe, particularly at those closed door meetings at which he speaks.

I think he is a national security risk, and on top of that he absolutely hates and envies the President. I still remember his smarmy attitude when Presient Bush was nominated.

He's practicing for nightling while he is "stranded here". He obviously doesn't know he's live.

Have they showed this on Fox yet?

From Jed Babbin:

While Ollie North's helo squadron was flying today, they were joined by one of the Boss Birds. The helo carrying the deputy commander of the First Marine Division was flying along with them when it came under fire from some of Saddam's Fedayeen. Which was a career decision for them. While Ollie and Griff Jenkins filmed it for Fox News, it took less than a second for their helo driver to hit the buttons on his stick, firing 2.5" flechette rockets and .50 cal machine guns at the thugs below, finishing them. (Flechettes are steel darts, which come in several sizes, and can be fired from by many weapons from shotguns to rockets. Think of them as a paper shredder designed to work on people). You can see the film on Fox tonight, probably during Hannity & Colmes.

Wasn't that article something? Turkey has a lot of gall (or whatever it is that wabbles under a turkey's neck).

[The Wizard]

Rangel's has really gone over the edge

[Dolphy]

I'll bet clinton is egging these reporters on behind the scenes with faux concern over this expectation when he was one who put the idea out there.

The man is an irresponsible danger. If Clinton thought military action would be easy then why didn't he, with the Congressional authority of the Iraq Liberation Act, after identifying Iraq as a danger to the United States, take action? For him to now claim it an easy task only exposes his failure in managing our national security since he did virtually nothing.
