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.

(S)He sounds French. Our men are busy fighting to defend his right to have a stupid opinion. The Iraqis fought to deny all of their people that right. Or the right to freely form corporations to fight for. Or the right to have an open and free press. They even threatened children, denying their fathers the God given right to LIFE, forcing them to charge our guns to certain death. Each of our men and women has their own motivation to join and to fight. If this person chooses not to fight for a corporate entity, fine. We don't need them.

Sean was trying to get McCain to make denigrating comments about the democrats, citing Nancy Pelosi's stupid statue comment. McCain wanted to talk about POW's and military tactics and the performance of the troops. It was like listening to two different converstations.

Sean isn't a very good interviewer, in my opinion.

John Loftus on B&A - if it is really weapons grade plutonium, it could not have been made in iraq. thinks it came from north korea, who also supplies libya. the site is perfect for this material, since its "hot" anyway from the previous nuclear program.

HELP liberal friend on

Well uh, hmmmm.... I personally can't talk to people like that, liberals, I'm not mentally stable enough. Just rational enough to want to stay out of prison. ;^)

My wife is concerned about this too, and she's no liberal not even slightly. I don't see it so much though. Frankly the War on some Drugs has trashed our rights and Constitution far more starting over 25 years ago. Then there's the 17th Amendment which changed the way Senators are elected. That happened in the early 20th Century. (forot the year) FDR practically institutionalized politicizing the courts. Affirmative Action doesn't help.

Tell your friend that there really wasn't much left of the Constitution when the Patriot Act was signed so it's academic. See how that goes over.

Actually, the best book on that type of subject Ive read is "Letters to a Young Conservative" by Dinesh D'Souza, it's targeted at highschool/college aged peoples on how to counter liberalism on the campuses of America, but it can apply to all situations, an amazing book that lays out why we're right and they're wrong and how to prove it

Oh...I thought you meant that you had to hold the alt key and just hit one number.

A computer whiz I am not.

Found an article for you:

Force Majeure What lies behind the military's victory in Iraq.

Three major changes have taken hold within the military since then—a new war-fighting doctrine, advanced digital technology, and a less parochial culture.
Don't you love the talking point today about how the quickness of the campaign vindicates Rummy?

What was the word again? Quagmire?

loftus - Tikrit has an enormous underground city, enough to hold large numbers of people. He is worried about dirty bombs in Tikrit.

Probably more in the sense of fallout than meltdown, and
the stuff the UN already knew was there would have been
sufficient for major fallout.

Check here. Use the "Number" column and add the 0. The Number Lock must be "on" on your keyboard, as well.

MOAB must be because so much is underground. I heard on MSNBC that a big battle could take place here and also that they may try the chemical weapons here.
