Smoke billows from U.S. headquarters at so-called "Green Zone" - CBS
Edited on Sat Apr-24-04 11:08 AM by dArKeR
Smoke billows from U.S. headquarters at so-called "Green Zone" in central Baghdad Saturday. The smoke's source was unclear.

CBS has this tucked away in a little corner picture. No other details


I didn't want to make a LBN post because it's already in here but it seems too small and might be missed.

3. Let's be honest
There always seems to be smoke billowing out of the "Green Zone" these days. I have to guess that it must be someone's full time job just explaining what each smoke source is.

Let's hope no one has been hurt.

4. Texans always
barbecue on Saturdays. And even if Bremer is not a Texan, he has to pretend like he is one, sort of like * does, come to think of it.

Texans will eventually be regarded (and I say this with sadness as I am a native Texan) as the early 21st century equivalent of Germans during the 1930s and '40s.

I would characterize Texas' "gift to the world" as a sort of reverse Nazism, as every policy is distilled through the "Christian Zionism" sermons of the state's dominant Southern Baptist preachers who hold forth to an audience of several million Texans each Sunday.

5. Did anyone save this CBS pic? They've taken it off now and I guess I
didn't save it.
