Good Morning.

This is the Daily Thread of Operation Iraqi Freedom - 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.

Please have mercy on us dial up limited FReepers! Limit the big graphics, post links instead. A breif description of what the graphic is would help!

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

[Poser]

We're almost an hour into the show with 2 mildly funny moments. On routing ridiculing GWB and another ridiculing people who boycott French goods. So far, not good.

[Poser]

routing=routine

[SoldiersGirl]

I'm easily amused, I've pretty much laughed at the whole show

SNL is pretty pro American in my opinion, they make fun of the celebrity idiots that protest us, they salute the troops, they poke fun at GWB and Rummy, but it's in fun...not like the bashings that Clinton got.
If SNL is good enough for GWB to go on and laugh at himself, then it doesn't bug me when they tease. I thought the tango and cash thing was pretty funny.

[hoosiermama]

Maybe it's just the quiet before the storm?

[Lauratealeaf]

Glad you are reporting. The first routine turned me off so I turned them off.

[Howlin]

Operation Iraqi Freedom Live Thread Ping!

[Timesink]

This SNL has been *very* poor so far.

Yes, truly cringeworthy. When even the opening political sketch blows (it didn't even seem so much poorly written as it did flat-out unfinished), you know you're in for a bad one.

[Cate]

Tommy Franks hasn't disappointed us yet, there is probably something in the works that will make us thank God for the leadership we have.

[Keith]

I gotta say I miss Beavis and Butthead...they would have fun with Saddam...

"he's a dumbath...hhuhuhuhuhhhuhuh"

[GOPyouth]

Beavith, that show ruled. heh heh

[Tree of Liberty]

Fox - Rick Levanthal feeding video of Marines crossing the Tigris and doing security detail

[GOPyouth]

Fox looks pretty live to me. At least on the left coast. I could be wrong.

[AlextheWise1]

those were some good three stooges impersonations

[meanie monster]

would someone post the pic of ronald mcdonald in the place of the saddam statue. thx in advance

[BagCamAddict]

I sure wish CentCom had let us know there was going to be a Pause today. There is NOTHING happening on the Bag Cam. Where is all the action?????

On another subject: Yesterday, on the Bag Cam that faces towards the burning oil refinery, there was a female reporter (remember the bitchy one?). She was trying to get someone else to place some phone calls for her so she could phone in her reports. She said the phone numbers out loud. Anyone want to call them and see (a) who they are, and (b) what inside scoop can be learned? They might know what's happening.

The phone numbers were:
65-625-11224
65-625-33723

[Rightwing Conspiratr1]

Two questions:

Where's Ollie?!!
Is it Vietnam yet?
;-)

[Unknown Freeper]

I hope they have a serious delay on these feeds going out from the embeds.

[Timesink]

I guess the war must be over. Nothing but reruns on the news channels.

Fox is live. MSNBC gave up trying last night and went back to their usual let's-shut-down-at-11pm-and-pretend-nobody-notices routine.

I haven't seen anything interesting enough on CNN tonight to stay tuned in long enough to notice if they're live or not.

[Rightwing Conspiratr1]

I noticed that. Does the war stop on the weekend?

[Unknown Freeper]

Jerry Rivers reporting in from nowhere near downtown Baghdad. lol
