A little OT good news.

There weren't enough Americans killed for the networks, or Harry, to
discuss this. So, I'll post it.

The world needs more like you JohnH. You'll still be looking for victory
while the last US helicopter evacuates from the Baghdad Hilton's rooftop.

Subject: A little OT good news.
From: JohnH


The following contraband was confiscated during the operation: three
cell phones, three compact disks, $2,500 dollars, three AK-47s, one
bolt-action rifle, one 9mm pistol and 18 vials of atropine. Four
caches were discovered that included detonation cord, two 60mm mortar
systems, six 60mm rockets, one rocket propelled grenade launcher and
eight RPG rounds.


So what's the big deal? I have friends with the same stuff in their hall
closets.

The only reason that you think we're doing poorly over there is
because that's what your news services want you to see. Those of us
who have alternative sources know a little better.

Great, when can we expect GWB to have another "Mission Accomplished"

Ooooh......that was embarrassing when he did it. It's even more so now.

PS. You snipped this:

I find it interesting that you and others actually seem to get angry
when you hear of a good thing happening. Perhaps you could explain why
a report by Harry of lots of dead people seems to put a smile on your
face, but a report of a school being built causes anger and smart
assed comments.

You could address it.

John H


Reports of death do not put a smile on my face. My sense of power is not
connected with another man's war, in the same way it's not connected with
watching gay men in helmets jump on one another in football games, and
yelling at a TV as if I was somehow a part of their activity. I'm glad to
hear of soldiers putting schools back together in foreign countries. But,
that doesn't mean that the plan, as a whole, is correct. You know that.
