GOTTA SEE THIS - DOD Has Released Large size Pictures of U.S. troops riding horseback with members of the Northern Alliance in Afghanistan.

Some of those horses look like donkeys. Kind of like the U.S. Senate.

Looks like Barbara Boxer is good for something. Our troops could ride her (no not like that... we already know that everyone has had a ride on Barbie Boxer), she is a jackass.

Stop with the self promotion already.

I've seen you web links on every thread I've read.

Are you advertising in F.R.?

[RetiredArmy]

Hope this is not a Charge of the Light Brigade!

[mercy]

From HOO AHH to YEE HAW. Hope those big guys don't hurt those poor little scrawny nags.

[Nitro]

It just has to be the John Wayne influence!!

[WIMom]

That's because the good guys are always in white! Hi-ho Silver! I saw a documentary a couple weeks ago and they showed the NA on horseback. It looked likes something out of a Ghengis (sp) Khan setting.

[b fair]

What ever happened to Hummers????????????????????????????????

Hummers run on gas.
Horses run on grass.
Guess which one is available.

Somewhere, in Valhalla, J.E.B. Stuart, "Black Jack" Pershing, and a whole bunch of others are smiling.

[Dengar01]

Well I think he is advertising on FR, his FR Screen Name gives the first clue.

I have a website but I don't think that's fair to go on Jim Robinson's Website and promote my website. That's Free advertisment and it's not fair for J.R. or FR. Oh well he's hoping someone will go to his website, but there is a thing called a search engine where one can submit their site.

I assume our guys are the ones with the white hats.
