Good Morning.

That's why I'm PARTICULARLY ornery about this one!

Well I for one prefer my President's mistakes to be mispronunciations as opposed to adultery in the Oval Office.

[umbagi]

G'nite, y'all. It seems quiet, I'm going to bed early (first time this week I'll be crawling in while Mama's still there!).

Prayers for the troops -- it ain't over 'til it's over...

Anyone planning any celebratory parties? I only ask that because the anti-liberation mob ar staging yet another demo this saturday in London, England.

Anyone fancies doing a counter-demonstration?

[BagCamAddict]

Where are all the jubilant Iraqis on the BagCam? A couple hours of celebration is all they needed to get 30 years of opression out of their systems?? Where are all the people? We had more pedestrians and car traffic when we were bombing the place!

The Flower Grew in the Dark

How can it be?
From under the snow
The flowers emerge
And begin to grow

How can it be?
The seed that dies
Goes into the ground
Only to arise

How can the humble
The meek and the lost
Find redemption again?
Only at great cost

How can a people
Break the tyrant's chain?
If the strong will help them
They can rise again

Miracles happen
Every single day
If we will only work
If we will only pray

Sleeping off thier hangovers (and counting the booty!)

[BagCamAddict]

And another thing I want to see on the BagCam or in news footage:

A big public celebration EXCLUSIVELY for WOMEN AND CHILDREN. Notice how you never see women and rarely children. I know they can't be consorting with men and all... so they should have a celebration that is for women/children only.

[blondee123]

That's neat, I bet the troops enjoyed the beer even if it was warm!! LOL

[blondee123]

Sure France, Germany, and Russia can help with the rebuilding of Iraq. They can donate food, medical supplies, and other needed products. And they can all forgive Iraq's debts. That's how they can HELP."

NOoooo, they want to help themselves to the OIL deals!!

[BagCamAddict]

Wow, the BagCam doesn't like partly cloudy days, does it? When the sun comes out, it sure bleaches out. Fun to watch it transition from shade to sun and back. (Might as well... since I didn't get to see the statue come down!! booo hooo hooo)

[BagCamAddict]

Sniper shot?

[esopman]

Thank you very much for that post. Barukh ha shem Y'shua. God bless America, our troops and all who fight evil.

[blondee123]

A big public celebration EXCLUSIVELY for WOMEN AND CHILDREN.

I think the women & children (especially girls) have been so repressed that they are not familiar with being able to come out in public. I noticed it was all men & boys out on the streets even in the Kurdish areas!
