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.

did the weasels have names?

Bill & Hill

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Just heard G. Gordon Liddy say PFC Jessica Lynch had been strung up by her ankles and her limbs beat with metal rods???? HAS THIS BEEN PUBLISHED ELSEWHERE???

G. Gordon saying: "We want those guys (the ones going to Syria) - especially now - we want them dead or alive)"

Yes, we do!!!

I want Jessica Lynch's story OUT IN FULL FORCE ALL OVER THIS COUNTRY!

Won't be posting much now - but God bless our troops, God bless and thank God for President Bush and our military leaders, God be with each and every American working to bring freedom - and peace to Iraq. And may God help those who have aided and abetted the Saddam regime.....

Thanks for all those on these threads. They have been delightful.

[GOPyouth]

I like your tag line.. I'll alter mine a bit.

[chantal7]

Ok. Thanks! :)

[CheneyChick]

It sounded like he was saying that as a fact - that she was hit with a club and that is how her legs were broken.

[The Hon. Galahad Threepwood]

I have no relations with that man, Mr. Hussein.

[Anamensis]

Okay, so I'm not the only one who heard that....

[Cate]

G Gordon was talking about PFC Lynch yesterday and brought this up. He then talked a moment about her certain sexual abuse. Then G Gordon went on to discuss this is a prime reason why women should not be on the front lines. He is quite adamant about women not being in harms way.

[cyncooper]

This Red Cross woman who is on LKL seemed to be spewing propaganda to me. It says she's in Kuwait, yet she purported to say what conditions are like in Iraq in hospitals and fretted about POWS. I do believe her concern was for how the coalition is treating prisonsers.

First, I'll take the accounts of Dr. Bob Arnot, who is a doctor and reporter, IN Baghdad. And while some items were taken from hospitals he said the return to normalcy is very, very fast. He praised the Marines to the heavens for doing all they can and getting supplies and such. He said patients are getting great care. Do they need more? Yes. But the implication of her statement is it won't be attended to unless THEY oversee it. Well, it will and it is already underway.

Second, we are documenting all the time that we are taking care of the prisoners we have taken. By all means, let the Red Cross check it out. I resent the implication though, that we aren't. The concern should be for our troops that are missing or taken prisoner.

[Consort]

The future lies ahead.

[OldFriend]

Didn't see it.......however, from the extent of her injuries I thought that she had been severly beaten and tortured.

The army has provided a woman 'friend' to be with her 24/7........I suspect it is for the soldier's sense of security and comfort.

We must pray for her. The physical wounds will heal, the rest will take a lifetime.

[najida]

its laughable, but you really should watch a few minutes of larry king. you would think that baghdad was a modern, western, peaceful, humanitarian city before the US liberated it. No mention of the brutality of the regime, the torture, rapes, prisons, killings, etc. Its unreal.

I actually had a client tell me on Wednesday that she couldn't understand why we attacked those poor people in Iraq who were just living their own lives and minding their own business....

I almost asked her if she had just come out of a coma this week....

[Catspaw]

This after showing the brave marines who continued to fire their weapons, one on a stretcher, and the other bleeding profusely but refusing help so he could keep firing.

I thought it was Army. Bloom was with the 3ID.

And seeing that soldier shoot on the stretcher (and get his "target") brought tears to my eyes. That's a helluva lot more than a Purple Heart.

[Jackie-O]

If he does give Saddams pic a wack, it'll be to save his own a$...Combover flying to Damascus now with layover in Paris.(yeah,figures two countries that supported Saddam and terrorists)

[Anamensis]

Liddy just said yes, he'd invade Syria next, and Iran and North Korea if necessary, yes, unilaterally. "I'm a great unilateralist." Awesome dude. I may have a hero, here.

[OldFriend]

Too many factions in Russia. He must be very afraid to join with the weasels.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Alan Colmes is wrong when he says the protestors don't effect the morale of the troops. John Gibson told the troops w/ Rick Leventhal last night that the polls showed growing American support for the war and the Marines w/ Rick said that it mattered a lot to them what Americans thought, because they heard about all of the anti-American protests and didn't know whether we were behind them... without news for weeks.

WANKER-PEACENIKS AND PRESS!

G. Gordon Liddy on Hannity & Colmes:

 

Big rally for the troops tomorrow in DC: NOON, 3rd and Constitution...by the Capitol, G. Gordon Liddy, thousands of bikers...fun for all (I said that, lol)!

 

G. Gordon's son's w/ 2nd Battalion, 23rd Marines....the Unit that found the potential bioweapons lab. Son now 'stationed' at the UN bldg. in Baghdad..G. Gordon says he wants Ollie to get ahold of Major Ray Liddy and tell him to call his mother. (^:

 

G. Gordon remembering WWII: "Once we were at war, everybody pulled together. Everybody was united."

 

WWII was wanker-free...at least in the news. Imagine that?!

[Catspaw]

I wish people could allow Pfc. Lynch her privacy. If she has been raped, it should be her choice to speak about it when she's ready.

[Cate]

The old USSR is certainly hard to keep track of these days. The new countries and governments are way over my head. I heard something about some of them wanting to be a part of NATO. Never in my lifetime could have predicted all the changes.

[Jackie-O]

Chad, that scared the crap outa me when she turned her head!!LMAO!
Hey, maybe you know how to find a pic of the Crypt Keeper from Creepshow Movie to post side by side to Consort's photo, I think she looks just like him. (and has the same irritating voice!)
