At least a bridge

Food for thought:

If all these journalists can be completely brainwashed in less than 3 weeks, everyone should be able to understand why the Iraqi people are brainwashed after 34 years of this Regime. ala Patty Hearst, Elizabeth Smart... if your captor is the only one feeding you information, you have no data to refute what they tell you. If these reporters NEVER see the Americans because they are kept in their rooms by armed guards, and if no one in town has seen the Americans, then it's understandable that they would be less-than-convinced. Also, the tank field trip yesterday was in an INDUSTRIAL AREA on a Sunday! So of course no one in town had seen the Americans! (But you know those journalists only asked 3 people if they had seen us... "no one I spoke with had seen the Americans"... because they have to rush back to the roof to practice their lines for 20 minutes. LOL)

It's kinda' sorta like watchin' a whole comedy take-off....like the cell phone ad where the guy orders 2000 OXEN and gets DACHSUNDS instead.... "Stampede!"

Seriously, you bet this whole thing is really, REALLY making Daschle sad?

Hopefully by morning we can have a smooth video of that statue getting blown to hell.

He was on top of the hotel that the press stays in!

On CNN, right before his press conference, CNN's camera swung around and you could see them outside, high up, on some kind of terrace.

[GOPrincess]

A Pulitzer would be great but I believe they're for print only... A news Emmy, maybe?

Me too, hubby got up for a bathroom run & I'm over here talking a mile a minute, not that he'll remember in the morning!!!

Welcome to FR.

[this_ol_patriot]

Ah jeez, this guy on Sky News has the Bob disease. Maybe he has a minder. Real show of bravura by BBob, the Pentagon must answer if this is a raid or are they going to stay. Iraq is still in control on this side of the river. Holy crap this guy is as nuts as Bob.

[Timeout]

We use the F-word here.

You know..."French".

As in, "Yeah, you and the frenchin' horse you rode in on!"

[Otta B Sleepin]

The idiot on the CBS cam is saying there is a state of confusion???

I believe he said he hoped this wasn't merely a probe and the troops would be pulling back - that would be confusing to everyone.
