Fire it up!
Fire it up!

On a related note, CNN's Rym Brahimi is hot. We need to see more of her.

Rumsfeld says 3 to 4 oil fields on fire.

NOOOOOOOO! Not the OIL! Damnit, now we have to fight for, uh, the moral high ground! Or something...

Naah, I think I´ll stick with Weapons of masturbation. Now THAT's a way to do war.

Way to get the support of all the environmentalists Saddam. I wonder how many human shields just unpacked their bags and went back to work.

It's tin hat day in here I see. So you really think that we set those drills on fire?

How about 'Operation Stop... Hammertime'

Iraq sets its oil fields on fire: France and Russia surrender.

What a fabulous day!! Boobies and War!!!! Could this get any better?

SuburbanCowboy Pravda.ru is reporting numerous alien spacecraft visible above Iraq and Kuwait
Hey, at least FoxNews is better than these guys :)

Yup SpaceCase.
"Imagine you are sitting in the room with a woman, who has slit her wrists several times..."

I DON'T GIVE A FLYING FARK ABOUT THIS, GET WITH THE WAR MONGERING!
I have to be a good american and look at this like a big arse 4th of July ya know.

I've been listening to NPR all morning, and it's keeping up with Fark with the news flashes. Knowing how fast FArk is, I'd say that's pretty good.

haven't heard about the alien spacecraft yet though. Ssshh...gotta listen to Rummy. He'll know. He knows everything.

The field, the field, the field is on fi-yah!

Of course Saddam's wearing glasses. You don't want a contact to pop out while you're on the run...

What happenes to the ol fields that are on fire? Do they burn for seven and eight years like what happened in Kuwait?

My fellow Americans.

If the pictures of explosions over Baghdad are reminding you of the horrible images of Sept. 11th, please ignore the wrenching feeling in your gut.

As we speak, Saddam Hussein is burning my oil. Pay attention to that instead.

yeah, we all new this was going to happen. I just expected it to happen sooner. like, 47 hours ago.

Rym Brahimi sounds like a great name for a stripper

I'm underage and undereducated...

oh well, life goes on.

The oil is lit, especially in the trenches around baghdad, to cause immense ammounts of thick black smoke, which make things difficult for the enemy and help to cover troop movements.

Well, this has already taken longer than the first gulf war, and has there been a formal declaration of war yet? or is congress giving a simian the exectuive powers again?

MONKEY HATE CLEAN

Just FYI, people, setting oil FIELDS on fire is a rather difficult thing to do, as these lie hundreds or thousands of meters below the ground. I won't be concerned until I start hearing reports of WELLHEADS being blown up to set oil WELLS ablaze.

Haliburton execs must be creaming their pants. (haliburton has exclusive rights to do oil field cleanup for USG)

Fox news > cnn

Well according to to http://money.cnn.com/markets/commodities.html crude light is 29.35 right now. Who wants to guess how high it goes before the end of the day.

I just went to pravda.ru to check on the space aliens, and I didn't know this, but there's a fark.ru.

A Russian Fark.

Imagine that.

I bet the mossad did this. In fact, when we eventually send in the ground troops, I bet the mossad will defend Baghdad to the very last man.

At least you're not insulting...

I suppose my stupidity is unforgivable since I'll be voting for whatever jackass the Dems nominate next election.

KellogsYou can vote for whomever you want, but you're in Florida, and that means Dubya wins, regardless of the vote count.

Wow...two of the things I look for in women. :)

Smegma: I wish Rym Brahimi were a stripper. If you know of any pictures I'm missing let me know. CNN would be smart to start a new, around the clock, CNNrym channel.

I pose the question of what makes people think this is about the oil, but all I get is more utterly, painfully, stupid remarks about Bush and oil. I get no explaination because most of you are just repeating what the majority says here. Well I hope you get accepted into whatever click you're hoping for, I'll stick to facts and intelligent debate rather than misguided name calling or blithering idiocy.

O5iiawah, declarations to declare war are a formality at this point. The US Congress hasn't declared war since WWII.

Daniel_x ...good stuff man, good stuff.

"Why not just drop a nuclear bomb on him?"

At long last you finally have posted a coherent, reasonable thought. Well done.

Press conference is over.

Rummy sounded good. The regime is leaving the building.

Re: oil fields

it seems that if it makes it difficult for the attacker, it makes it difficult for the defense, too

Is it possible to burn up most or all the oil reserve in iraq?

Wow, now we're gonna have to spend even more money to clean up the mess they made before we can start selling the Iraqi people's natural heritage to pay for the cost of the invasion.

Sure hope the dollar doesn't tank any time soon!

Make that three things, she doesn't CARE that she's young and dumb either.

If someone broke into my house to kill me, I don't think I would light my wallet on fire to get back at them.

"Take that! How do you like it now!?"

Man o man, pravda.ru is just full of information about the Bush terrorist acts and so on and so forth.

On a side note, try this link..

Apparently, Saddam's son has had a cerebral hemmorhage.

Bass:
That's assuming that Saddam means to defend. I think he knows he's farked, and he's trying to go out like Slim Pickens in Dr. Strangelove.

Harmonia,
you have any idea of the amount of pollution burning oil gives off? it's also thought to be one of the causes of Gulf War syndrom.

CBS reports that officals in the Gov. think they got Saddam last night.

Biff- good point.. I guess I'm screwed either way I look at it. I have George Bush as president and Jeb Bush as governor.
Long Live the FCAT!

Ponch- guess I'm just lucky?
