I'm shocked! Shocked I tell you!

[mvpel]

The hits just keep on coming for the Democrats, don't they?

[RobbyS]

It will take forecer to collect all the stuff in that country. God knows what is there.

[Born Conservative]

Butttt, Iraq has no connections to Al-Queda. How can this be???????

[randog]

The Al Qaeda videos and literature must have been planted by the US. Everyone knows there isn't a single shred of credible evidence linking Iraq to Al Qaeda. (/sarcasm)

[ladyinred]

If my friend in Georgia is lurking, here is the thread I told you about today!

[rdb3]

U.S. forces operating in the so-called Sunni Triangle -- the region of Iraq most loyal to captured former dictator Saddam Hussein -- found a significant weapons cache that included al Qaeda literature and videotapes, the U.S. military said Tuesday.

If this is verified beyond all reasonable doubt, the critics of this war (both Left and Right) need to admit their mistake.

I won't hold my breath, however.

[RoseofTexas]

NO YOU DON'T SAY!! I hope CNN=Chicken Noodle Network goes down in flame soon!! I guess that stupid boot kicking cowboy was right after all! BASTARDS!

[ladyinred]

BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- U.S. forces operating in the so-called Sunni Triangle -- the region of Iraq most loyal to captured former dictator Saddam Hussein -- found a significant weapons cache that included al Qaeda literature and videotapes, the U.S. military said Tuesday.

That can't be!!! Iraq has nothing to do with al Qaeda! Bush lied!!! </sarcasm

[Faraday]

U.S. forces operating in the so-called Sunni Triangle -- the region of Iraq most loyal to captured former dictator Saddam Hussein....

Hasn't CNN got the BBC memo? It's suppose to be the "former President Saddam Hussein."

General Hawley's Speech  This is a must read. Good for him!
 
 
In case you haven't read this....( I had not), I wanted to share it with you. I  don't think that this guy is a liberal Democrat.
 
 
For those who don't know General Hawley, he's a newly retired USAF 4-star general. He commanded the USAF Air Combat Command [our front-line fighters and bombers].

The Command headquarters is at Langley AFB, VA.

General Hawley is now retired and no longer required to be politically correct. His short speech is very much to the point. The following are excerpts:
 
"Since the attack [9-11], I have seen, heard, and read thoughts of such surpassing stupidity that they must be addressed.

You've heard them too. Here they are:
 
1) "We're not good, they're not evil, everything is relative." Listen carefully: We're good, they're evil, nothing is relative. Say it with me now and free yourselves. You see, folks, saying "We're good" doesn't mean, "We're perfect." Okay? The only perfect being is the bearded guy on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. The plain fact is that our country has, with all our mistakes and blunders, always been and always will be the greatest beacon of freedom, charity, opportunity, and affection in history. If you need proof, open all the borders on Earth and see what happens.
 
2) "Violence only leads to more violence." This one is so stupid you usually have to be the president of an Ivy League university to say it. Here's the truth, which you know in your heads and hearts already: Ineffective, unfocused violence leads to more violence. Limp, panicky, half-measures lead to more violence. However, complete, fully thought-through, professional, well-executed violence never leads to more violence because, you see, afterwards, the other guys are all dead. That's right, dead. Not "on trial," not "reeducated," not "nurtured back into the bosom of love." Dead. D-E --Well, you get the idea.
 
3) "The CIA and the rest of our intelligence community have failed us." For 25 years we have chained our spies like dogs to a stake in the ground, and now that the house has been robbed, we yell at them for not protecting us. Starting in the late seventies, under Carter appointee Stansfield Turner, the giant brains who get these giant ideas decided that the best way to gather international intelligence was to use spy satellites. "After all, (they reasoned,) you can see a license plate from 200 miles away." This is very helpful if you've been attacked by a license plate. Unfortunately, we were attacked by humans. Finding humans is not possible with satellites. You have to use other humans. When we bought all our satellites, we fired all our humans, and here's the really stupid part. It takes years, decades to infiltrate new humans into the worst places of the world. You can't just have a guy who looks like Gary Busey in a Spring Break '93 sweatshirt plop himself down in a coffee shop in Kabul and say "Hiya, boys. Gee, I sure would like to meet that bin Laden fella. "Well, you can, but all you'd be doing is giving the bad guys a story they'll be telling for years.
 
4) "These people are poor and helpless, and that's why they're angry at us." Uh-huh, and Jeffrey Dahmer's frozen head collection is just a desperate cry for help. The terrorists and their backers are richer than Elton John and, ironically, a good deal less annoying. The poor helpless people, you see, are the villagers they tortured and murdered to stay in power. Mohammed Atta, one of the evil scumbags who steered those planes into the killing grounds is the son of a Cairo surgeon. But you knew this, too. In the sixties and seventies, all the pinheads marching against the war were upper-middle-class college kids who grabbed any cause they could think of to get out of their final papers and spend more time drinking. It's the same today.
 
5) "Any profiling is racial profiling." Who's killing us here, the Norwegians? Just days after the attack, the New York Times had an article saying dozens of extended members of the gazillionaire bin Laden family living in America were afraid of reprisals and left in a huff, never to return to studying at Harvard and using too much Drakkar. I'm crushed. Please come back. Let's all stop singing "We Are the World" for a minute and think practically. I don't want to be sitting on the floor in the back of a plane four seconds away from hitting Mt. Rushmore and turn, grinning, to the guy next to me to say, "Well, at least we didn't offend them."
 
SO HERE'S what I resolve for the New Year:

Never to forget our murdered brothers and sisters.

Never to let the relativists get away with their immoral thinking.

After all, no matter what your daughter's political science professor says, we didn't start this.

Have you seen that bumper sticker that says, "No More Hiroshimas"? I wish I had one that says, "No More Pearl Harbors."

What in the heck is this .. The Dems swore there were no ties

I guess this is more proof the Dems don't have a clue of what they are talking about huh?

[jmstein7]

BUMP!!!

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

Great job! Keep rolling them up, boys!

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

[Dr. Iyad Allawi, who is heading security issues at the Iraqi council, told two Arabic newspapers Monday that Saddam is giving the "names of people who know the location of hidden arsenals used in terrorist attacks."]

Saddam giving it up? But Dean(D) said that we were not...that there was a quagmire...oh well...never mind.

[Brad’s Gramma]

Anyone with HALF a brain KNOWS that President Bush planted this stuff when he flew to Iraq for Thanksgiving. Sheesh, people, THINK for once.

[Air Assault]

Tip of the iceberg I do believe.

[Rutles4Ever]

Not possible. They can't even SPELL Al Qaeda. Saddam faints at the mere utterance of that name.

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

B-b-b-but...There is no al-Qaeda in Iraq, CNN said so.
