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:

To all who helped this get started and keep it running, thank you!

Special thanks to An.American.Expatriate for staring the daily threads, Mo1 for the screamer, the AdminMods for their tolerance, mhking for the video links, Ragtime Cowgirl for her Exclusive Live Transcription Service™, and, of course, Belly Girl...

and he'd probably give saddam a key to the little locked box he has, with the secrets of the internet inside.

[Otta B Sleepin]

Democrats do not make their beds or change their sheets. I hope this is clear cause I don't want the hospital corners crowd to issue a fatwa on me.

ROFLOL. Crystal clear - no need to worry about a fatwa from me!

[POGIFFMOO]

...and West Wing would be number one.

[GirlShortstop]

there's the liberal way...   let em get really dirty, throw them on the floor, and whine until you get someone to clean them for you.    

Good Morning Baghdad!
Glock, you're still on?  Your stamina is something!!  ;-)

[debg]

arghh..CNN analyst trying to explain how saddam can regain the city!
regroup...step up attack

[Quilla]

Re: Saddam (or whoever) on video - CNN had the word "Live" in the corner during the daylight shot. However, at the time, it was night in Baghdad. I took it as bogus as well.

FOX News Exclusive Video (FOX caption):

3rd Infantry Storming Baghdad

It looks more like a leisurely Sunday drive without some Iraqis 'resisting' at all ! ABSOLUTELY NO resistance !!

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

You're welcome. Col. Perkins was very well-spoken, and another FoxNews exclusive...interview w/ commander of the operations going into Baghdad.

Greg Kelly just followed up re. the "resistance" - intense when in the middle of it..."They're not employing their weapons very well, they're not very well organized...the techniques and equipment they are using really doesn't amount to much more than light resistance."

I guess we armchair press critics can cut the weekend FN team some slack. (^;

[Spunky]

WOW! I am on the MSNBC cam and Achmed gets his face right in front of the camera.

I am not getting any sound though until now and it sounded like a ship horn, then quit.

[TomGuy]

It looks more like a leisurely Sunday drive without some Iraqis 'resisting' at all ! ABSOLUTELY NO resistance !!

A comparison of the "fallen" is running something like 1 to 2500.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

"I am a soldier, too."

Awesome...the whole story. Forget WMDs...this is motivation to take out Saddam's thugs, imho.

[GRRRRR]

How to make a Bed

[POGIFFMOO]

Where do youb put the 'Do not remove under penalty of law' tag?
