Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A brief description of what the graphic is would help: To all who helped this get started, thank you! Special thanks to null and void for keeping these threads running on the weekends, Mo1 for the screamer, Ragtime Cowgirl for her Exclusive Live Transcription Service (tm), the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, and, of course,...

It's getting pretty dark in Baghdad.

I hope Baghdad Bob wasn't referring to chemical or biological attacks when he said "unconventional" (in English).

[TomGuy]

CBS webcam feed got mixed with ABC/Ted Koppel report. Koppel was showing an old aircraft Saddam purchased from the US (way back when). Koppel's trying to implicate the US in to be connected with Saddam now. [gonna go gag...breakfast is coming up....thanks Ted.]

[pitinkie]

I guess I could go to my sons room to blast!!

[Jackie-O]

Just heard a radio report that prelim test have showed that the vials of powder found are explosives...investigation ongoing, more testing..

[Solson]

I haven't. Australia has been with US since the beginning and really felt the impact of terror when that nightclub was bombed killing many Aussies respectively.

[hawkaw]

I don't know but Sky news is freaking all over it.

hawk

[chnsmok]

Ted trying to convey that the US sold Iraq the plane and a lot of "other" things.

[weatherFrEaK]

Ted was also alluding to the fact that we sold Saddam alot of "other goods" besides planes in the past. How ripe.

[Big Bad Bob]

And we all bloody know it as well. Assad's is as Red as they get.

PS: Thanks for all those who ahve sent their greetings early, ours limit is 18.

[RummyChick]

bbc talking about the pregnant lady ruse

fox talking about Monkey Boy

Is anyone showing Monkey Boy live with his threats.

[TomGuy]

FoxNews reporting: Iraq Info Minister said non-convention action may be taken.

[This is an obvious threat!!!! Could get nasty.]

[Carolina]

Sky is showing him.

[Poser]

Ha! Free Republic beats Sky News to the punch!

[attyatlaw001]

Someone should tell Ted that, in the past, we freely gave the French our lives to liberate their country; but probably wouldn't matter to Ted.

[Big Bad Bob]

SORRY!

GOTTA GO!

[RummyChick]

it was wag the dog according to fox. I was wondering why he kept talking about walking the dog..bahahahahahaha sometimes those real time streaming feed isnt very good

[Carolina]

Bye, Bob.

[Timeout]

Oh, I hope this isn't true about Michael Kelly. Some say he's "just a reporter", but Kelly is more than that. He's been on the front edge of conservative thining for the last several years, often sprinkling his columns with biting wit that leaves me laughing hysterically.

I note that this report of his death came from an FR thread where "someone" heard it on "the radio". OMG, I hope this is just a rumor!

[Poser]

Should someone tell the Fox News anchors that Ollie already identified who took out the power grid?

[two23]

can see beret boy here too (Ministry of Disinformation)
