OK - Does that imply some order in terms of priority?
Or is your list ordered in terms of elevation of their "foxholes"?
Army = digs the deepest holes
Marines = can't dig as deep (because the sand falls in the hole)
Navy = fights at sea level
Air Force = fights up in the air
Coast Guard = only fights in Washington 'cause they have no budget to buy a shovel 8<)
NORAD = fights over Canada from a "foxhole" in Cheyenne Mountain
Space Command = what's a foxhole?

How come they don't post pics of the female correspondents showering? The female correspondents were too busy taking pictures of the Brit soldiers showering...

here's part of the email my brother sent me:
"To the perspective of the tanks, a studio camera looks like a missile or a RPG pointed right at them. Especially if it is hanging off of the edge of a terrace. The tankers saw this and did not want to take any chances.
As an ex-army tanker myself (24th Mechanized Infantry Division now known as the 3rd Mechanized Infantry Division out of Fort Stewart, Georgia), I can understand the tankers not wanting to take any chances. Going into a well developed city is the most dangerous part of being a tanker. The armor on the top of the tank is not very thick and can be penetrated with anything over 50 caliber. Most of the armor of a tank is in the front or sides of a tank. Anyone with a RPG in a skyscraper can take out a tank. Why take a chance at dying?"

Why does my cat's breath smell of tuna and salmon?
Now, my dogs' breath smells of whatever they have eaten, and who knows what that is.

The problem with Shep's argument is that in Iraq, the U.S. Constitution has no bearing. There are no first amendment rights when you have a minder standing behind you holding a gun up to your head.
These people were duly warned. They made the choice to go and now they must accept responsibility for their decision. They are in the middle of a war - not a hollywood production - they need to wisen up and stop believing everything that comes out of Baghdad Bob's mouth!

We were watching it LIVE here last night.
Not repeated, nor editted, but live as it happened.

So we're supposed to ignore their possible shading the truth just because they have a minder? Sorry, that doesn't wash with me.Is it worth having your brains blown out? Of course some of them have no brains to begin with.

But Pipes, who IS an expert on " THE ARAB STREET ", has been saying the same sort of good things, for more than a year ! I am NOT " off base ", at all. The writer, of that article, is NOT an ARAB, and is just grousing.
