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. 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 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!

AAAHHHH!!
RUN AWAYYYY, FASTTTT!!!

[Miss Marple]

Ollie alert!

[Fledermaus]

My last comment on this:

Why is it people come in here to complain? They obviously have internet access. Why don't they go to Drudge or NRO or FoxNews or any of hundreds if not thousands of sources for the news they desparately need?

[arkady_renko]

Col. Hunt!

[Miss Marple]

Colonel Hunt up first!

[SoldiersGirl]

woohoo
a double header

I could sit here link articles all day long.

So could I.....but they wouldn't have anything to do with the 'word of the day'. You guys had a great site until you started playing games....

I've linked at least two people here and neither one has tried to join. One of them read along today and didn't understand the nonsense. If you don't come in at the beginning of a joke there's no point in being on this thread

Yes, I could post more articles for you to ignore...perhaps I'll try that tomorrow. :-)

[Jackie-O]

Wankers

[POGIFFMOO]

So you got to post your opinion.....which had nothing to do with the war.
Here's my opinion. If people only posted 'series' posts of only relevant information (according to whom), there would be a lot less posts, and I would probably not read it because a slow moving thread (read: not a lot of posts) is boring to me. In a free republic you have a diversity of opinions, despite self appointed individuals attempting to impose their will based on how they think things shall be. This is the frustrating thing about freedom, people will think about whatever they want, and even sometimes express an opinion. This is marketplace of ideas, and if I want lockstep thinking I can surely get my cyberlobotomy over at DU.
It never seems to fail that when you have freewheeling discourse somebody wants to shape it because it's freewheeling.
My suggestion: Start your own thread. List your rules at the beginning and kick off anybody that breaks your rules, after all, it's a free country!

If we liberate Cuba, we also liberate Venezula and it's oil. Not to mention heading off the post-Castro Che brigades all mustered together.

[Fledermaus]

This thread has nothing to do with the overall Freeper site and in no way defines it.

Geez.

Who tinkled in your Cheerios today?

Okay, the "word of the day"....We've taken Baghdad and are holding it.

At this exact momemnt we are still fighting and moving on Mosul, Tirkit, etc.

We are finding WMD.

Happy now?

[LauraJean]

Very cool, a couple of years I made an A-line dress out of camo, I call it my ''battle dress''

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

ANWR now, or ANWR in 2004. Free the American resources for the American people. Just say NO to dependence on Jihadists and Watermelon appeasement!

Sorry, slow news day. (^:

[Fledermaus]

Yeah, that's a mess of a situation.

[Fledermaus]

ROFL...

Col. Hunt about Ollie - "he's probably captured a few guys over there"!

[Jackie-O]

Well said brother/sister!

[SoldiersGirl]

ahem
blushing
I have a cammo bikini, cracks my husband up, I bought it as a joke
I also have red sox panties...lol...he's a devoted fan, I figured I needed a way to turn him from the games on tv...

a fantastic article to be ignored. It's about rewarding our troops when they come home..I for one love the idea..and would benefit directly from it..lol

[LauraJean]

We should do it for the caribou children
