Tell me about it! After awhile you could tell they even got tired of saying it. It went from "Shock and Awe" to "Shockenawe". It REALLY got on my nerves :furious:
Oh well, I am better now :D

I know. Everyday I want them to bring in a sports announcer to do the news.
"There at the Fifty. They could go ALL. THE. WAY!!" :)

I wanna see collums of Marines and 3rd ID go charging into Baghdad. Then a few moments later come running out and say "We killed everyone in sight but... Saddam isn't here."

LOL

:D

shlock and ahhhh!


I mean, you land a 2k lb JDAM within a mile of me, chances are good it'll be far beyond shock and awe.

more like

"Wolfe ...I've shit my pants....film at 11"

I think that the most annoying thing I have heard so far is how the media refer to the enemy as "terrorists" The USA has invaded another country for gods sake! They are enemy combatants, Iraqi patriots, and generally dumb fucks but "Terrorists" they most certainly are not. Even if they have a lit stick of dynamite up thier ass as they grab a bottle of evaian water off the back of a duece and a half it still, at the most, makes them suicide bombers. They are defending thier homeland!.... they are not Terrorists. Terrorists is a media buzz word to rile up the american people. IMHO

I hate when reporters (and Bush) say:

"coilition forces"
and
"the iraqi regime"

I'm not sure on the spelling though.

I just hate the reference to the iraqi people as "terrorists"... Or other countrys as well... Who deside who is a terrorist??? There has been dictators helped by US goverment, to figth of such "terrorists" which in fact was freedom figthers... And then theres the support to "terrorists" who migth also have been freedom figthers...

Ohhh and then theres the expectence to the iraqi people just giving up their homeland and embrace the invaders as saviors...

And how the iraqis are mean and cruel when they kill americans to defend there country.
