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!

Why do women pluck and then paint back their eyebrows?

Mostly because the ones that do have unibrows and then get carried away to the point that they have to paint them back on out of fear of being mistaken for Dick Gebhardt.

I don't pluck mine, since God graced me with a pair of lovely eyebrows as it is. I will cheerfully skin a deer and braintan its hide, though.

nevermind, don't answer that.

Oops. Sorry...

[Fledermaus]

Of course Colmes is wrong, but it's fun.

He just said, "Communism was destined to fail and it just happened on Reagan's watch"....of course Sean points out, "oh, evil empire, tear down this wall, military buildup, forcing missles into Europe, meant nothing?"...

Colmes says, "yes"! The bankruptcy of intelligence on the left is a story that continues and should be told...it's 150 years old and growing!

[Consort]

Arnett is back.

[Consort]

Arnett wants to look like Jack Nicholson.

[Fledermaus]

I'm supposed to believe Gorbasm woke up one day and saw the light? But wasn't that the same light the left said was shining on communism, socialism, etc?

Now they are trying to tell me that they were right all along and Saddam wasn't a threat? See? they say, he's out of power. He was never a threat. All the evidence is Hollywood fakes (oh, they turn on Hollywood when it suits their purpose, otherwise Michael Moore is their genius like L. Ron Hubbard), it's not true, we are killing gazillions of women and children...

PUKE

I will cheerfully skin a deer and braintan its hide, though.

But do you cut 'em up and package 'em for freezing?

The first year we were married, my wife thought it was cool that I got a couple of deer for the freezer (I'd already introduced her to venison).

She told me last week, though (twenty-two years after the fact) that she was utterly horrified the first time we spent three hours with them (and two others friends had killed) spread all over the kitchen, while I taught her how to strip the muscle, cut it diagonally cross-grain, and freeze-wrap it in four-serving packages for the freezer. She thought she'd married some kind of savage!

[MEG33]

Arnett..many people dead. burning down buildings..200women and children.Wants to look like Jack Nicholson..not Anthony Hopkins he laughs..He says sadly it's an ugly scene...Hospitals looted(I hear they treated Baathists ) He didn't yet give his report.Looking forward to his TRUTH.

[Fledermaus]

Of course hospitals have been looted...so the average Iraqi can get a bandage and an aspirin they were supposed to be getting under "Oil for BS".

But it was our evil sanctions, that all the liberals demanded we pursue instead of war in 1991, they say is the problem.

I'm so happy we now can post their lies in real time across the world now.

[MEG33]

Says in the only safe place in Baghdad..people being shot to steal their cars(where have I seen this happen..thinking..thinking.ah Here)Still unable to report.The criminals are in charge of the city.

[mhking]

Oh, my God! Someone please beat Arnett across the head....

[Fledermaus]

Dang it...I wrote about 10 paragraphs of amazing insightfullness...then I hit a bad key! lol

Oh well, it will come back to me.

[MEG33]

No,not worried to go to New York..Stop the burning..to tell the world so they'll stop it!(The world will stop it?)

[Fledermaus]

Is anyone else having loading problems?

[MEG33]

12 government buildings burning..Terrible day..Chaos..danger Terrible 200 women and children buried in hospital grounds.Causing chaos..worse today. Iraqis angry..negative image. This is freedom.??..we told you so..too volatile(Saddam kept order) Political chaos..He loves the word chaos..Saddam oppressive but kept order.SIGH

[MEG33]

Not now.

[piasa]

But do you cut 'em up and package 'em for freezing?

Yeah, that's the pleasant part compared to brain tanning- finest venison steaks and roasts in the world and the jerky is awesome, too. Since I try to salvage all the sinew I can for other purposes- before and after butchering so as to get the longest- there's never any gristle and no waste.

Ever stuck four deerlegs vertically in the snow outside someone's house and then called them up to tell them Rudolph had fallen off their roof?

[umbagi]

Political chaos..He loves the word chaos..Saddam oppressive but kept order.SIGH

Sound like a job for ... Super Koffee, and his UN Rangers!

These guys have stopped anarchy and implemented democracy in uh, well, uh,

Oh, hell... Never mind...

[Fledermaus]

UN IS GO!

[MEG33]

Saddam fed,clothed and educated his people..see if we can do better.Is he really approving and admiring Saddam ?

[piasa]

I guess we can start using cattle prods, power tool kneecapping, and rope torture then since that's something the America-hating leftists will approve of to restore order.
