The U.S. today announced it has captured al-Zarqawi's top aide in Mosul.

This guy must have an unlimited supply of top aides. As noted by What Really Happened, this is the 5th one captured since May.

    Capturing who? if the boys bag the big boy that would be news, but some unknown is nothing. where is bin laden, bush? why isn't he in gitmo? or is this just a family thing with you, MR.Bush?

    The man has a supersized posse, what's the prob? Intelligence "experts" have said it's to be expected. Have you seen Tyson's entourage? And he's finished. Jeez, I wish you liberal traitors would just trust sometimes.

    Like I said, "experts" have spoken. Buy why just 10s? Why not 11's? Or even 15's

    It's like being #2 in The Prisoner... why would anybody accept that job after seeing the high turnover rate?

    Could it be that every time we capture his top aid, he promotes somebody? Let's pretend I'm my boss's top software developer. If I am captured by the U.S. military, my cubemate Steve will become my boss's top developer.

    Dadler, did you say traitors and trust? in two lines? Bush is the real traitor and trust is a joke in our land of freedom! where is bin laden? How many top aids? can we get in 3 years? Hitler had millions of top aids. so why did bush send home the Laden family without asking question one? why is it bush said "we don't want bin laden"?...hey I was in the Army and my people have lived here for 300 and more years, who and what is a liberal traitor? is it a person who can see? and is it a person who asks about what bush is doing to our nation? how long before the camps open up! will you be a camp guard? or be the guy hung on the wall like in 1944, and will you execute the little kids? bush would do you along with all the people of the world just to follow his orders, and bush like so many others are nothing but tools of others. but this is a-lot-of-fun-to-think-about. evil is evil, the real axis of evil is Laden,Bush,Fox. all need to be hanging on poles, and in fact will need to hang many chinese and U.S., And European business guys who and selling us all down the river for dollares.

    Fred, My tongue, if it weren't clear, was firmly in my cheek with that post. I'm on your side here, brother.

    et al - I have asked this before, and I ask it again. Why not just be happy that we have had something good for our side happen? Why the snide remarks? Why the cutesy wiggling and giggling? You say you suppport the troops? Why don't you show it?

    Dadler I am having fun to, come on we all know we can't do a thing about what bush and business are doing, this new top guy is only for the show, and the sad part is we will see many more top guys in our future.

    Jim, Why not just be happy that we have had something good for our side happen? Because for every one of their "top associates" we get, there are 500 US troops dead and thousands of innocent Iraqis killed And it doesn't change a thing.

    Quaker and kdog, LMAO! Since the admin got caught using color alerts for political reasons, (confirmed by Tom Ridge) they now have to have a 'top aide' captured when the MSM has a few uncomfortable comments. The previous 'terror alerts' coincided with bush drops in approval ratings. Just a coincidence I'm sure. They've proven over and over that they'll lie for any or no reason. They are definitely in 'cry wolf' territory. The real shame is they might actually be telling the truth sometime but their credibility is so low people won't believe them.

    Che - That is totally not true, and you know it. You need to be Babalu'ed. ;-) Now honestly. Isn't it because you just hate good news about the war?

    Jim, You're right. Things are worse all the time. Want the stats from today? 50 Iraqi 5 US See ya in court, Monkey Boy! And it all started in a basement conference room.

    Because some of us don't like being told transparent lies, even though it might be comforting--in the short run--to believe them.

    That sums up my feeling. Less than zero credibility. For all I know they captured mickey mouse. Lie to me once, shame on you. Lie to me twice, I no longer listen.
