Time for "Shock and awe"


According to CNN, here it comes!

A-Day....shock and awe...bombs away...bye bye Baghdad...

Maybe even the MOAB! (Mother Of All Bombs)

Most anti-aircraft firing in three days, air raid sirens going off in Baghdad...

Maybe I am just an idiot, but does aanyone else think it is hilarious the Iraqis fire all that anti-aircraft at cruise missles? What are the odds of them even hitting anything? Same could be said of our aircraft but at least there they may have a shot.

I was wondering what all the talk about shock and awe was about. I just figured it meant our troops were in shock at the lack of resistance and in awe and how quickly they moved towards Baghdad.

Just heard that we're about to cross the Euphrates river, that means we could be in Baghdad tomorrow!

This war could be over within a few days.

Seems that CNN is much too friendly to President Bush for some:

Get to see CNN all day


Yep, Got the live Internet feed here at work with our T1. Everybody gets it. Very cool. Then, just hook up to the projector and get the big screen going on the wall.
