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™, Fledermaus for his 15 minutes of fame, and, of course, Belly Girl...

With all due respect, the military - like any other endeavor - will get a certain amount of bad elements of society. It was far worse in the days of the draft - you would have to send 7 men to do a 2 man job. Perhaps this war will weed out certain element from the servive and encourage other, better elements to join. We should be thankful that this was not too easy: It's really a blessing that the nation can see the both costs of freedom and the wages of cowardice.

This was posted by Steve Seattle, and I was taken back by it,......as O'Reilly would say, where is he going wrong. Because I think this is the money. Thanks TREE!


Buchanan, Joe Sobran, and others of their ilk are motivated by several factors:

1. As old-line, traditionalist Catholics, they share the Islamic sense that the West is decadent and no longer deserves Divine protection.

2. They are anti-Israel and possibly anti-semitic, and oppose any mid-East policy which they see as even indirectly beneficial to Israel.

3. They are isolationist and share the Founding Fathers' distrust of standing armies and complex international treaties, agreements, and commitments.

4. They are staunch believers in the 9th and 10th Amendments, and feel that mainstream Republicanism has abandoned any pretense of defending the traditional concept of Federalism.

All of these factors, plus a pro-Europe bias, tend to make them oppose Bush both personally and ideologically.

CBS Bag-cam - I'm hearing a low whine. Maybe aircraft cannon fire? Don't think it's an A-10, since that sounds more like a BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURP when it fires its gatling.

Did you read "possibly"

Besides, this is very unlike them to put this important a statement without an investigation.

I smell lots of rats.

That is also possible

The only thing that I am believing at the moment is that something hit them from somewhere and that many are hurt or killed

They other infor will come out .. it always does
