#1 Sounds like a successful mission to me.

Hey, PNA! Better keep your gunnies off the roof!
[1 hour passes...]
Sarge, shall I call in coordinates?
Yeah, go ahead. Those guys in the embassy keep givin' me the finger and the guys on the roof are disturbing my delicious midday MRE with their potshots.

#2 The link to this one had me thinking something like Baghdad Bob getting polluted on Jaegermeister while delivering one of his Denial of Realityâ¢ checks.

#3 A spokesman from CENTCOM issued the following statement in response to a query by ABC's Terry Moran: "Naturally, our stated goals have been to remove Saddam Hussein's regime and to disarm that regime of its weapons of mass destruction. We shouldn't have to remind you, Mr. Moran, that this current war is very much an extension of our larger war against terrorism, further . . .Okay. I can see by the look on your face that you remain confused. Let me put into words you should be able to understand: 'If it quacks like a duck and shoots like a duck, it's a friggin' duck,' and so it is within this larger context of international duck hunting that our response to the Palestinian National Authority is, with some reservation, 'tough shit.' Thank you."

ROTFLMFAO!!!

Tell me he didn't really say this - actually, don't tell me that. Lemme' keep on laughing.

The look on the reporter's faces must've been hilarious.

Start passing out the duck hunting licenses.

#6 Ducks? Wrong cartoon!

These PA terrorist morons think that they're fooling us with a wolf-in-sheep's-clothing act. No way! This is a Roadrunner cartoon, and the roadrunner they are not! Kerrbooom! Beep, beep!

How else can you explain that so many of their people blow themselves up!

#7 Sorry, FOTSGreg. I made it up. But you don't wish that, just once, the remarkably polite men who give the press briefings could cut loose on the halfwits that comprise today's press corps?

"Oh, damn!"
"No, Achmed, JDA..."
