"It's encouraging to see our newly-elected (Iraqi) officials not only endorsing our efforts, but helping us identify the areas of need where our programs can be best targeted," the colonel said.

Screaming Eagles, ping.

If you want off or on my pro-Coalition/anti-wanker ping list, just ping.

May the road rise up to meet them
May the wind always be at their back
May the sunshine warm their face
May the rains fall softly on their fields
May God hold them in the palm of his hand.

AMEN

Your efforts at exposing the toxic waste coming from the left are superb.

Great job troops. God Bless and Godspeed.

Mike trained with the 101st for two months before deploying to Iraq....he couldn't praise them enough and was so happy to learn that they took part in the demise of the sadistic twins.

Thanks for pinging me to this great story.

I detest the American press.

It's a pleasure, BOB. Our troops really do need our help spreading the word.

My subject line today:

Quandry? Nonsense. Give the troops 2 parades - one for putting up with the press.

Not pithy. It'll do.

Understood. Perhaps Saddam will turn up in your hubby's neighborhood - dressed in a burka.

I almost threw my TV out the window last June after phoning FoxNews daily re. a NY Times or Newsweek post-embed 'story'.

Decided to go on offense - to the DoD (they were trustworthy throughout the major conflict), troops, bypass the press. This perspective has been invigorating, inspirational - a joy to cover....and share.

The troops are far above their critics. The critics make their jobs much more difficult. They need us to spread the word.

When this is all over, we really do need to figure out a way to do something about the "press".

A modest proposal.
