Good Morning.

This is the Daily Thread of Operation Iraqi Freedom - Situation Room - LIVE THREAD.

It is designed for general conversation about the events of the day.

Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A brief description of what the graphic is would help!  If you post graphics, please "size" them so that our browsers continue to load the rest of the thread!

Sorry if this was posted already....

MSNBC's Bob Arnott: Iraqi Hospitals Filled Children with Gunshots - From Saddam's Fedeyeen

I like wankerina. It has a nice combination of indicating gender, the right amount of "wankerism," and also evokes "ballerina," indicating dancing to someone else's tune.

Very good.

[jayef]

. . . and for that he must be given "mad props".

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

For the Shiites, murdering that Cleric is like murdering President Bush for us. How utterly, utterly tragic.

Yes, it is. Our guys need prayers, too. The vultures are descending from all quarters. Every step we've taken closer to freeing the Iraqi people we've met setbacks and overcome them and will again. The Iraqi people know that our guys are dying to free them.

I thought it was Spanish for "little war." Guerro meaning war, adding the 'illa' makes it diminuative. I like the visual of calling them Gorillas. Sort of the same skill at war.

Wankerina is another good one. Wanktress was also good. It kind of indicates some skankiness.

"only Muslims are allowed in Mosques"

You'd think that the-powers-that-be would have realized we needed to assign personal bodyguards to him that are Muslims in the US Military. This guy/these guys were BIG deals.

(Siren on the BagCam... first one in a couple day?)

[epluribus_2]

that would be guerrita. guerrilla is "one who wars". Funny thing about the word guerra. It derives deeper back in spanish history to gothic/germanic rule from warra (war) but spanish routinely replaced W sounds which were somewhat foreign (theirs sounds more like a b) with GW/GU.
(end of historical linguistics post)

Mornin' ! . . .

[two23]

Just saw Oliver North report on FNC--Lt Col. North shows the rough day they've had.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Thanks Spunky, but I'm looking for an actual article with details, not just a FoxNews blurb to send the press. Wonder why the press didn't rush to cover this timely human interest story? (^:

[sheikdetailfeather]

Ollie North said this has been the worst day so far. 35 marines injured. I believe one was killed. Big fight took place at presidential palace.

[retrokitten]

New Registered pic! It's hilarious!
