[rolling_stone]

I think CNN should be strung up for not reporting those things, truly dispicable..

[Conservababe]

Today I heard Coffee Annon say that while freedom is good, Iraq has paid a high price. Say, Coffee, ever heard of the American War of Indepencence? (Yea, we paid a high price for freedom, too.)

Not to mention the price that the US and our allies are currently paying for Iraq's freedom, no thanks to Kofi Annon.

"Do a search at http://google.com for "Hillary Clinton""

I'll reveal a guilty pleasure in the hopes that there are no DU lurkers here. I like to go to Metacrawler since they have a companion site called MetaSpy - this lets people know what others are searching for. I like to type in Hitlery, Hillabitch and other uncomplimentary things so people can see how much dislike there is out in cyberland for the former First Bitch. I'm sure there are also records kept by the site owners as to what are popular search terms. Childish? Yes. Fun? You bet!

Kid who caught one in the helmet is telling how it was. Amazing. Just a big ole bump on the inside...he says it felt like he got hit in the head with a baseball bat. Taking it all in stride...all in a daze work I suppose. Gotta love em.

Five surgeons are discussing who makes the best patients to operate on.

The first surgeon says, "I like to see accountants on my operating table, because when you open them up, everything inside is numbered,"
The second responds, "Yeah, but you should try electricians. Everything inside them is color-coded,"

The third surgeon says, "No, I really think librarians are the best; everything inside them is in alphabetical order."

The fourth surgeon chimes in: "You know, I like construction workers. They always understand when you have a few parts left over at the end and when the job takes longer than you said it would."

But the fifth surgeon, Dr. Morris Fishbein, shuts them all up when he observes: "The French are the easiest to operate on. There's no guts, no heart, no balls and no spine. Plus the head and ass are interchangeable."

I'm sorry, they're streaming south, toward Baghdad, not north.

Wesley Clark wonders if they're headed toward Tikrit to fight, but Sadler says they're heading away from Tikrit.

From what CNN says these guys walking have no idea what is going on. Well since they had the bad luck of meeting CNN they still must be clueless.
