Methinks that Craig Nelson is the one who resents the US actions.

If Mr. Nelson is a US citizen I hope he is denied reentry into OUR country.

CNN will always be sympathetic to those who opposed the USA. Their ratings will continue to sink and yet, they will always wonder why.

One thing that makes this day all the better, leaving aside everything that happened in Iraq, is that somewhere that jerk is sitting around, green with envy and trying to figure out a way to get in on it. I expect a speech any day where he tells us he approves of the way George did it, and that he, too, would have done it the same way, if only he'd had the chance.

What is it with CNN anyways? They are losing ground to Fox,you would think they would smarten up.

I check out CNN daily because of the old rule "Know thine enemy"

Man, I'm glad that I'm not watching CNN.I'll bet CNN is doing its best to not cover anything positive, only the negative regarding Baghdad. Craig Nelson's Ba'athist Iraqi minder (who is now out of a job) must be the one who was interviewed.

I wish that I had FNC, but I'm stuck watching MSNBC. Not one of the NBC reporters in Baghdad reported anything but positive reactions from Iraqis.

I hope Nelson goes looking for more anti-American sentiment and stumble upon a nest of vipers, er Ba'thist thugs & Forein Jihadists. Nelson better be glad he's not Jewish or he'd wind up like Daniel Pearl. What a jerk.

". . . because we are a big western power doing something they couldn't do themselves."

It's kind of like we had to go in there and wipe their ass for them. You can understand the resentment. Ultimately, however, we had to go over there because certain of them decided to come over here and mess with us.

No regrets for terrorist bastards and those who harbor them. The game is over. We're coming to get you no matter how many countries "resent" having their asses wiped.

Yeah just like the Kuwaitis now resent us. Maybe the Iraqis won't be ungrates like the Europeans.

Liberals always have said war will only tick off more terrorists and their arrogant attitude and message is: Bush and conservatives are stupid warmongers with no education to talk nice and win hearts. Therefore, when confronted with these pictures today, liberals are forced to admit Iraqis are happy about something, but no way could they carry the logic to it's full end. That would prove them wrong.
