Day 27

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.

To all who helped this get started and keep it running, thank you!

Oh, hey, don't worry, I'm aware of that and it's all taken care of for me, I see a doctor regularly. I also don't have allergies (Dolly does, I believe). By the way, it's possible to have a healthy immune system and just "grow" into an allergy...so don't panic. ;-)

[Kip Lange]

Do a search, he has his own "Where's Greg?" thread now (and he's fine, earlier up the thread someone posted what he's up to). :-)

[Mrs.Liberty]

Thanks for this link, retro. That IS an excellent read.

Good Afternoon everyone......what is new???

About the incident in Mosul. I'm glad our Marines did what they had to do to defend themselves. This has happened before where someone in a crowd fired a gun and our Marines fired back killing the gunmen and unfortunately civilians around him.

However, I found from different reports this protest was due to the American flag being raised on a tower in Mosul. I don't understand why our soldiers continue to do this.

They are under orders NOT to fly the flag anywhere. Yet I continue to see the stars and stripes flying in the wind on almost every cable news report.

Hearing that idiot Ellis Wanker's attitude and voice is like fingernails on a chalkboard to me.

MSNBC just had one of our military people (Sapt. Shawn Basco, U.S. Marines) talking and he said Saddam had pink sheets on the bed in his palace. He was shocked. Plastic Veneer rather than gold. The sons palaces had paintings of armies crushing armies.

As a fully functioning male (who DEFINITELY can say pictures of male marine's butts do LESS than nothing for him...), I'm afraid to say I don't find "Belly Girl" that attractive. I mean, she's wearing hip-huggers and a 3/4s-shirt, so what? Not like those are in short supply. :p

Just not my type (except for her politics...then again...I usually wind up dating liberal girls...heh).

Oy ve. Let the bloodletting begain. *duck*

I will say this: I can't believe we've gotten this far into the thread without...

ALL YOUR SYRIA ARE BELONG TO US

Tori is up.....No multi-colored outfit today. She is wearing a very conserative black number with a white stripe on the collar.

The sons palaces had paintings of armies crushing armies.

Were they on crushed velvet? :p

[Sacajaweau]

Saddam had pink sheets on his bed!!!!!! Wait till his troops hear this!!

[Dog]

Some good questions today......oh no CNN clymer whining about Franklin Graham...

[Kip Lange]

Agreed. I understand the urge to hoist the flag, obviously, but I do not understand *violating direct orders*...

[sheikdetailfeather]

Yes! Wait until Letterman and Leno go something on the pink sheets. How about SNL? "O.K. Saddam. We know you are in there! Come out of the closet now!"

[abnegation]

More Wankers! Franklin Graham was invited to speak on Good Friday at the Pentagon by the chaplains....Now the Wankers are boo hooing because it will "make the Muslims upset". I say scroom!

[Consort]

...More conventional outfit today.

[Kip Lange]

This might help.

When they were getting haircuts (read: shaving their heads) for the first time in weeks w/ Rick's unit, Brian Wilson, I believe, made a comment about hoping Rick didn't cut his hair, because if he did, a "certain young lady back at the studios would be very disappointed". So sounds like he's not married but in a committed relationship.

Um, now, anybody know where Amy Kellogg went? :-(

[Consort]

The President is about to speak while the Pentagon briefing is ongoing. Somebody needs to coordinate these things.
