Kennedy looks like Jim Jeffords.

Greta update: DOD has info about chatter picked up regarding Hussein's fate. Coming up.

I hate the UN! The more I learn, the more I absolutely see no use for them whatever.
LOL!! I think that makes you offically a FReeper!

Thank you!

And I even found the jello shots in the freezer I forgot about....Think I will celebrate.

CNN scrolling along bottom of screen: "sense of lawlessnes in baghdad". Isn't the same statement true for LA and Detroit?

Hydrogen is the fuel of the future. ACCCCk (more frothing) I have read Popular Science and other magazines since the 70s. I could have picked up a magazine in the past thirty years with an article ''hydrogen cars just around the corner'' I tell you this is one long corner.

p.s. I hate the UN too.

Thanks for telling us about Gary Scurka's report. I watched it and it was very impressive. Good to know about another good embedded reporter who is on our side!

Tikrit may be undefended, Spy Video Shows

[Cate]

hmmm. maybe Parkinsons? I wouldn't wish that on anybody, even if he is a dork.

[lavrenti]

They may have gone underground. Tikrit is rumored to have large bunkers.

Right now I'm listening to Blue Oyster Cult Go Go Godzilla.

Tikrit has got to go. Go Go Godzilla.

Well, Lester left off the very end of the interview.

He did play up through the account of crossing the pontoon bridge with the flag flying, and left in the reporter saying he felt pride for the flag, the marines and to be an American.

What was left out was the reporter being asked if he had regrets and he said ho. Said again the pride he felt for the marines and to be an American, and said he had "done a lot of growing up" during this experience.

Still, I see the top of the hour is here, so they edited that out and left the bulk and that is good.

[ztiworoh]

Uggh, this guy is nauseating, and I wish Sean wold put up a better defense of our positions

[najida]

hhmmm. maybe Parkinsons? I wouldn't wish that on anybody, even if he is a dork.

He doesn't have the fine motor tremor of Parkinsons. I think he just has a funky voice...Like a teenager boy whose voice can't make up its mind.

Kennedy: 1 of 6 black children in NYC has asthma. I've lived here my whole life, when I was a kid in the 70s, I can remember being with my mother, having to cover our mouths with handkerchiefs while waiting on Manhattan street corners to cross. Anyone doing that now?

[Cate]

By the way, my definition of a dork is: a whale penis. My 9 year old great nephew told me I could never be a dork cuz I didn't have the correct parts. Mr. smartypants :)

[Lauratealeaf]

What about a wanker name for journalists? Have we come up with a name for that? wankeralist? Or reporter. wankerporter? Need to think.

Baier: Multiple conversations picked up regarding Hussein's death. DOD is very cautious b/c it's not hard proof, and b/c it may be disinformation, BUT one senior official says that there is more evidence suggesting he's dead than alive.

[Cate]

Has anybody heard Colme's radio talk show?

[Mo1]

He mentioned all the food that was going in to Iraq from the UN, but that it all went to Ba'ath officials.

Did he also mention all the money the UN made off the money from the fuel for oil ptogram

[The Hon. Galahad Threepwood]

They may have gone underground. Tikrit is rumored to have large bunkers.

OK. So, our guys stroll into Tikrit, and the Ba'athists are trapped in the bunkers and starve to death or come out and give themselves up.

Works for me.
