How Blix will cover his butt: His contract runs out soon. It'll be: Hey, we weren't done. Of course we would have found them. We expressed our concern with these areas in a very early press conference.(At one press conference, he said they were suspicious about these areas.) He will simply say that it was Saddam's job to provide us with the information as to the location of any WMD.

I'd just love us to find a Swiss Bank Account with Blix's name on it. I'd say watch this guy until he's laid to rest.

I would like your views on the Conduct of the BBC during the war, see if they are the same as mine.

I told my family from the first day that the BBC is really the Baghdad Broadcasting Corporation.

I'd say trenches, too....but do we hear "booms" when they're lighting off the trenches?

A reporter on Fox --in Baghdad-- just said there are no armed emplacements visible in the city. Even the sandbagged emplacements are EMPTY today, unlike days before.

This gets wierder and wierder.

I always thought that the UN was in Saddam's and many other terrorist leaders pockets, Mr Arafat comes to mind about now! Now I think I know why!

Yeah but after Kilmeade introduced Hunt, he said "at ease" and... no wait a minute I think that was Steve cuz ED said something about "You going to take that off of Doocy?"

I suspect that the ribbing must be all in fun because I don't know about them but I'd be afraid that Hunt would cut my throat in the middle of the night. He strikes me as a tough bastard and I like that. In fact the only retired commentators I can tolerate are the hard cases. Even Ollie, he's nice but he's a hard case too.

The thing that angers me -- the Place we found the Atropine, Manuals and Vials this morning -- BLIX boys had Inspected NINE TIMES!!!!! and they found Buppkiss, diddly Squat, zip, zilch, Nada!!! That alone is an indication something was going on! Why hide this stuff it was training material - only reason is you don;t want inspectors knowing you even have a TRAINING PROGRAM!

Blix and his bunch were incompetent FOOLS!

Our local radio station (one that has on Rush & Glenn) just interviewd Staph - is - at - a - loss & questioned him re: kerry remarks. Staph basically supported him & said in the "heat of campaigns" much of this type of rhetoric is expected.. The specific question was how on earth can Kerry put Saddam & Bush in same sentence/category. Pretty typical, pretty sad, pretty disgusting isn't it?

Quatar = Kutter

Qatar. Why is it Kutter or Gutter. Why is it not 'Ka-tar' like I've been calling it toda mi vida? I heard the Emir calls it Ka-tar too. Why Gutter?

Not wanting to sound controversial but here goes. Perhaps the UN knew all along, but didn't want it to go off for their sake and now they are going to pay the price, and no bad thing that!
