Excellent video on Fox by Greg Kelly..shows the inside of the bunker under the Iraqi government building. Quite elaborate and technically advanced in design. Fancy office furniture as well.

[Jackie-O]

I heard on the radio this AM that our troops did a little re-decorating in the Palstine hotel. Seems they removed the portrait of President Bush Sr. that was inlayed on the entryway floor and replaced it with a portrait of Saddam! I wonder how many Iraqi's have been tap-dancing over there today?

[Conan the Librarian]

You should work in the library. We have books that are 10 times better for the task...but they want Lesko or nothing. Then they steal the books anyway. Got to get that free stuff.

Sorry, Joe (the W was too close to the E)

Oh! LMAO! I thought Jow was a stupid name. (Sorry to anyone named Jow who might be offened by that)

[retrokitten]

There was a man a few days ago on Greta's show who said that the Germans helped design and build those underground bunkers.

Did anybody see Ollie's report last night? He kind of mentioned it today as well. I thought the misty-eyed moments of this war were over, but he said something that got me started again. He said that he spoke to a muslim cleric through an interpreter. The cleric told Ollie that he had instucted all the people to turn over the foreigners. Ollie asked him, "But aren't WE foreigners, too?" The cleric replied, "No. No. They're the foreigners. You're the AMERICANS." I lost it again. Wow.

[Jackie-O]

I heard Ollie report this morn. on the way out...he said the Fedayeen are armed with armour-piercing ammo now and he told of a harry moment when they were shot at in flight.
Man I hope they purge the country of these forein maniacs ASAP!

But if you can access online (or buy) today's Cleveland Plain Dealer the article in under Regina Brett's columns. There is a 2nd article on the funerals on pg B6
