OK so your saying you agree the Congress, both GOP and Dem suck worse than Bush?? Right? So why do you only pick on Bush? Start writing about the Congress and all the crap they are doing (or better not doing).
I think someone was trying to slap a Col. in the head with confusing facts again. And did a good job of it!!
Hey Dr. Guy, its actually my second time too!! I feel special!..
BAGHDAD, Iraq – Coalition forces discovered a large amount of documents and videos ranging from plans to critiques, including al-Qaida in Iraq’s strategy in Baghdad during an April 16 raid in the Yusifiyah area. The documents show how the terrorist organization lacks leadership, military capability and Iraqi support. “This information confirms what the Government of Iraq, Coalition forces and ultimately the people of Iraq already know - that al-Qaid

This opinion piece appeared in the Gainesville Sun ( www.sunone.com ) newsaper this morning, and I almost choked on my coffee and had to read it a few times to make sure I was not seeing things, or misreading it.

Chris, Short update this time, my friend. Last Friday some of our coalition partners, the Brits, were hit with a VBIED in Kabul province. The bomber waited for there convoy to pass by, and then
I have a question , what’s the big deal with a Military General ( Air Force General Michael Hayden) running the CIA? People and the media are acting like this is something new. Has everyone gotten selective brain disorder? <FONT face="Times New Roman"
Is this an indication they are running ut of experienced people and having to resort to "Joe Bomber" to try and build these things? I think that all the captures and killing of the terrorist that have gone on, (over 200 last week alone) is beginning to have an effect. But I guess we will have to wait and see. Maybe it shows in the unit that was in Germany as supposed to deploy and now is not becuase they are not needed, (according to the Commanders in Iraq, not Bush or RUmsfeld). &nbs

The kind that hasn't forgotten that freedom isn't free. And what you did for Karla was an act of love. Thanks. God Bless you. And thanks for leaving the note.

Sorry but they were in Aribic and were not included in the transcript so I "failed" to do no such thing. If they had been included, I would have printed them, thanks for your very insightful comment.
You did not hear any of this as it was with the Arab press and not the World or US press. Interesting statements on their part. Good stuff. Arab Media Roundtable with Secretary Rumsfeld and Secretary Rice from Baghdad, Iraq QUESTI
I get e-mails and photos from several freinds and former students of mine who are over in Afghanistan and Iraq and have asked for permission to post one or two fo them here. I thought you might enjoy hearing it directly from the guys that are out there on the front line and what they have to say. If any editing was doen I have noted it (for OPSEC reasons only). Sir, So, on 24May I was on a bodyguard mission, so to speak, dow

I am having a serious problem with being able to edit or delete comments to my articles. I write a comment to one of my own articles and I can not edit it (I get an error screen every time, a joeuser error screen) and there is no link to delete a comment. Anyone else having this issue??
Ever notice that everyone we capture (usually after a dip in poll numbers) is an Al Qaeda leader? If they are all leaders ... who the hell is doing their fighting? How the hell does a group name itself Al Qaeda in Iraq ... are the fricking nuts? ... the word Al Qaeda is a western nome ... that a group would simply adopt such a thing tells me two things 1) either they are the biggest bunch of idiots on Earth or 2) they a front for something else ... a
Then maybe you can explain why the US bodycount is rising every month? Actually the bodycount is not rising. Its not a steady thing, some months are worse then others. As a whole they are going down. Secondly do you realize we have had fewer casulties during three years of this conflict than in each of the following peacetime years! 1980, 1981, 1982, 1983,1984,1985,1986. I was in from 84-87. In the Vietnam War, the military was well know for includi

Hey Rombios, When the Iraqi Government establishes a working country what are you going to have to complain about?? As for the dead, thats what happens in a war, people on both sides die, just happy its more on the other side not ours. The difference is, ours are VOLUNTEERS. That means they went into the service willingly and knoew what to expect. Unlike you some people are willing to put their lives on the line asked to do so, when they believe in what they are fighting for. You need
AD DAWR, Iraq -- Donning body armor, adhering to proper military tactics and techniques, and maintaining situational awareness can help a Soldier come home in one piece, but sometimes a little something else comes into play. In March, 1st Lt. Adam Rivette, platoon leader, Troop A, 2nd Battalion, 9th Cavalry Regiment, attached to the 101st Airborne Division, and his troops were c
