It was a joyous return to the PJTV studios this week, spring was in the air, bin Laden was in the ocean and the press was beside itself with praise for a president who FINALLY showed up to do his job. But I already covered that. As for the clips, I’ll begin with the one [...]

Forget the focus groups and the polls, it’s nice to see a political ad that has some cojones. Give this guy your money now. Contrast Barber’s message with the United States Attorney General who is incapable of grasping the obvious. We are engaged with a clearly defined enemy that the people in charge of our [...]

We’re going to be leaving VBC in a little over two hours to head back to Kuwait. We got back so late after a long day and night of traveling that a couple of us just decided it would be easier to stay up and try to post something. The first couple of days here [...]

Let’s just start by saying that leaving the Blackhawks behind and going back to planes and cars is going to be a HUGE letdown. I sat up by the gunner for the first flight today and had an even better view. The gunner took my camera and snapped a pic of his view for me [...]

What a day. Went to work on a Blackhawk, which was different. But A FREAKIN’ BLAST! We haven’t determined exactly whether we’re allowed to mention the names of the places we’re going now right away. We’ll clear that up tomorrow. I understood that we were allowed to tell you all about it as soon as [...]

Arrived in Baghdad yesterday (Wednesday) and have had some problems getting all the pics on the computer. We’re staying in a compound that was built by Saddam as hunting grounds and lodges. The whole area is HUGE and surrounds some artificial lakes. The show last night was phenomenal. I’m not sure whether my lack of [...]

This post isn’t going to be nearly long enough for all that went on today. I’m a little under the weather (OK-a lot) and I’d like to grab a few hours of sleep before we fly to scenic Baghdad in the morning. We headed to Camp Buehring early in the afternoon. We saw a lot [...]

First thing I learned on this trip: being met at the airport by a security detail is SO much cooler than being met by a limo. We lost most of Monday traveling over here but, hey, it’s a freakin’ Monday. The sun was already down when we landed in Kuwait City so I haven’t seen [...]

I thought it was just the Republicans and the insurance companies who were dangerous. A Nigerian man tried to ignite an explosive device aboard a trans-Atlantic Northwest Airlines flight as the plane prepared to land in Detroit on Friday, in an incident the United States believes was “an attempted act of terrorism,” according to a [...]

He’s just soooooo thoughtful. On the afternoon he held the eighth meeting of his Afghanistan review, President Obama arrived in the White House Situation Room ruminating about war. He had come from Arlington National Cemetery, where he had wandered among the chalky white tombstones of those who had fallen in the rugged mountains of Central [...]
