Ardolino from INDC Journal is back in Fallujah, and his first report, though tentative, is nonetheless positive:
I’m still in the middle of my Civil Affairs (CAG) embed, and the ongoing missions coupled with intermittent power and internet access in my current billet make writing difficult. Polished commentary will be a few days out. But a quick teaser: the positive change in Fallujah since my January visit is astounding.
Read the whole thing.
Because somewhere in DC, Harry Reid just soiled his boxer briefs.
Note: if you cheap bastards aren’t going to help me pay for my stupid dishwasher, the least you can do is send Bill a few dollars so that he can maintain the luster on his impressive Iraqi-style mustache.
Which, needless to say, requires plenty of product — and, if it gets any fuller, will soon require its very own body armor.
Just like Geraldo’s.

Now. Off to sell the rights to my site in exchange for 10 directions of high pressure spray, and 4 turbo nozzles to clean even the toughest baked on grease and grime.

I’ve got some old-stock Pantene Pro-V Blonde Expressions Shimmer Lock i would only share with the likes of Ardolino. But I’m afraid the sparkles would interfere with satellite transmission, and isn’t he a brunette, anyway? Some cash then…

I’d wager that Reid doesn’t wear boxer briefs on account of his, you know, religion.
Just sayin’

Oh, and this morning Laura Ingraham referred to Geraldo’s ’stache as a “scrubbing bubbles” mustache.

Is Fallujah in Baghdad? Because Baghdad is where out troops surged into.
Nonetheless, Harry’s got a number of problems on his plate for talkin’ out of his ass.

Fallujah is where Bill embedded his first time in Iraq. He’s comparing the conditions between then and now in the former terrorist stronghold.
