Holy Cow!! I had goose bumps watching all this on TV this morning!! They (the Iraqis) are happy, and are pouring into the streets to greet our troops, saying "Thank you America" in Arabic, and much more. I know the war is far from over, and that there will be a lot of crime and looting in that city...but damn I'm proud of our troops. Susan Sarandon,Tim Robbins and the others do not need to worry. Freeing the Iraqi people from that tyrant was not done in their name. WE are WINNING oh yeah!!!!

Yeah, that was great. I was hoping to be able to stay to see Saddam's statue fall, but I had to go to work. I saw it on the news when I got home and it made me feel good to see it happen and to see the Iraqi people thanking our troops.
