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...

What's all the noise on the bagcam? Wind or Fire? Did they get electricity back?

Wind, you can see the sand blowing in from the right.

Power in parts, still working on it.

My God, My God, why did they ask her dad that question? Did they want to destroy him? B*ASTARDS.

The media show astounding insensitivity, don't they? That poor man collapsed the other day right after Jessica was rescued, and was late coming out to his first press conference. The media are moronic.

Has Ollie checked in today? I see Greg Kelly is in the thick of it. These men are doing an outstanding job. When I arrived home I turned on Fox and there was a sound byte being played, sounded like a military man. All I heard was " We're not softening the Guard, we are killing them". Anyone by chance catch who that was?

I use ME and the BAGCam works great on my systems, even the 150mhz laptop(80meg). I even have the BagCam on my active desktop so its there all the time. Try adding virtual memory. Or Real memory. HMMMmmmm...try something!

>Every freepin time I turn the Bag-cam on my computer freezes after about one minute! AAARGH!!
>Mine, too; but I thought it was just because I have a stupid OS (Windows ME).

MSNBC ran a story with video from Chip Reid. It was shortened from his previous report (I can add Egypt to the list). He said they didn't know if they'd find more foreign fighters ahead, but if they did, they thought that the foreign fighters would be the fiercest. I believe he said they were on the outskirts of Baghdad (I only caught about half of the story).

Now that they have the story with video, they'll probably run it again. Unfortunately, I'll have to watch Alex Witt.

XP has worked great for me

So I changed it
WinXP looking like MacOS X
