Oh thought you should know... was listening to the truck radio this morning going to work and they were getting a "News" Talk feed from a CBS network and what did they cover???? The Story of our friend "RAMBO." Yes that RAMBO and they did a good job of it without any bias or spin.

He is indeed captured. Queda forums publishing rants and raves claiming otherwise, but a statement has been issued by the "Islamic State of Iraq" on the Hesbah forum confirming the capture.

Hey, Peach.

Long time no see!

Notice the newly minted phrase "the president has to certify that there has been progress".

I guess he's supposed to drag a Notary Public to the front. "Certify". I suppose that will involve what, UN inspectors? riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

What meaningless pap.

Hi, HonestConservative. It's good to see you too.

Good catch about the certify and LOL about the notary public. I hope Americans are getting as mad at this do nothing Congress as they got at the Republicans.

Bush's new strategy is paying off. Watch the DemonRATs huff and puff as more successes begin to turn the tide in Iraq.

They have a "mandate on the war " but they don't have enough votes.

Ya think? /s

I cannot. You need a user name/pass, (no biggie) but the catch is that all members are verified by phone. How's your jihadi-speak?

Time for the next Hydra head to grow.

Since big catches are so 'yesterday' in your view, I'd like to ask how many terrorist leaders have you caught?

Or are you just another pisspot who can't take any good news without offering a snarky sarcastic comment, because it makes you feel "cool" and "smart".

You're pathetic... grow up.
