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...

How does Byrd continue to be reelected? The people of W. Virginia don;t seem to mesh with his views

[Green]

Thanks Priairie. I forgot about that news. Hard to remember it all sometimes, it seems to be very slow or all of the sudden happen all at once.

[knak]

Hi Prairie! Do any of the cams have audio today?

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Just back...Krauthammer was great. US and UK must lead rebuilding. Comments worth saving (and me in need of a nap...did you know it was Springtime? {^;).

[brydic1]

He has bought himself his office with our money for 30 years or more. He is the biggest spender in the history of the Congress and that says a lot.

[melodie]

MSNBC top of the hour headlines.....Now for the latest info of what is going on inside baghdad lets toon into FNC...LMAO

[GeorgiaYankee]

"Baghdad Bob = Iraqi Info Ministry guy...otherwise known as Beret Boy "

A co-worker and I have grown rather fond of the disInfo Minister, we're hoping that he's really on our side!

Anybody who likes "Wag the Dog" can't be all bad!

[MEG33]

LOL!

[ztiworoh]

Ahh yes, I have heard him called the "King of Pork"

But still, tell the people of W. Virginia to wake up and get him out

[StriperSniper]

I think it is the "Emeril Syndrome", Pork Fat Rules!

[debg]

beats me but when i was in wheeling wva at wheeling jesuit u, his hand was on quite a few things (ie., buildings with his and wife Erma's name on them!)

[prairiebreeze]

msnbc doesn't seem to have sound for me

cbs cam has pix of the jet that Jessica's family is taking to Ramstein ( I think that's it anyway, I just got back here myself)

Prairie

[JLS]

Did you guys notice that when Tony Snow was trying to refer to al Qaida said Al-Jazeera. Quite the slip.

[don-o]

you mean kerry? i sure hope not

Yes, But his name is Ketchup Boy

[Green]

oh those freudian slips....lol

[knak]

thanks, I wish that cbs would put baghdad back on. Atleast till they're ready for their press conference.

[meanie monster]

are the lights back on in bagland

[Dolphy]

That is incredible. While I have never doubted that Saddam had these weapons it is still staggering to me when they find the clues. I am sure there will be Russian fingerprints on many of the discoveries, I don't think they lost their Cold War mentality when it comes to fermenting trouble and chaos in the region.

Green, I am really sorry I missed the embed reports from last night. I should be in a hotel in a few hours so I hope to see some replays.

[John H K]

How does Byrd continue to be reelected? The people of W. Virginia don;t seem to mesh with his views

Simple.

Pork, Pork, Pork, Pork, Pork, Pork.

He's the ultimate Porkmeister of the Senate. Gets an unbelievable, mind-boggling amount of Federal money to build stuff in WV or move stuff to WV.

[cebadams]

Here is the CNN webcam (same area as the CBS one).

Lights are on. Sounds of artillery fire. Some flashes.
