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,...

"I kill You" "Just kidding" - I'm telling you...it is one of the best...

[EllaMinnow]

Precisely. And he's saying that purification does not destroy it.

[Poser]

Rick just reported. Showed his MRE. Chicken strips with salsa and M&Ms. When asked what food he would most like when he returns, he replied, "a long hot shower".

[mhking]

Oh, joy. "Petah" Arnett is talking about unconventional weapons on the NTV BagCam...

[Carolina]

Giving the Iraqi numbers on the death toll and reporting it as if it was real.

Thanks. See, I also noticed how he gives the Iraqi line as if it's real. Remember when he was rushed down to the Tigris river reporting as if an eyewitness to the capturing of the pilots. It was bizarre. He creeps me out, just like Arnett.

OMG this is HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Euphrates river poisoned with cyanide and mustard agents, not necessarily deadly but of concern

[hawkaw]

Sky News reporting that the Iraqi Minister of Information is reporting from the hotel that the reporters are staying in!!!!

Grrrrr......

hawk

[Sacajaweau]

That's the problem when you don't get the daily newspaper except the Iraqi News, edited and sworn to by Saddams Press Agents.

Why do I think that they went back to their trenches and said "Holy Camel Sh**". I thought it was our guys!! It's the Texas Rangers!!"

(aka the US Marines).

[CPL BAUM]

I have a feeling the news are going to come fast and furious for the next few days.

You are correct. I'm gonna need 7 weeks of news detox when this is all over.

[glock rocks]

relax. achmed has things under control.

[Catspaw]

I heard one report that bodies in mass grave (the 11 - 9 of which are americans) were mutilated & partially burned - believed to be to cover up atrocities)

It's got to be hell on the families, the hell of not knowing, the hell of wondering, "is my son or daughter in that grave?" And after the bodies are IDed, it's the hell of knowing your child is dead and you could do nothing to save him or her.

These families need all the support and prayers we can give them.

[Petronski]

Check out Dr. Phil today, he's going to read the riot act to a 'peace protester,' plus other good stuff.

MSNBC Breaking: Cyanide & Mustard Agents found in Euphrates River.

[Carolina]

Ha! Got a stream just as Kay Burley was quoting Beret Boy, "Surrender now!"

[two23]

I tried to record it...(no go) that was soooooo funny!
"you say bad word"...LOL LOL...

[turbocat]

This is "hugh". Very good report. Can seep thru the purification membranes.... poisoning attempt or dumping?

[mhking]

We all know where the NTV BagCam is. You don't need to keep posting the address like we're morons.

I wonder if this has anything to do with the underground tunnel network discovered that goes from the airport to the rivers and other places as well....
