President Bush cancels Minnesota visit (something else more important?)
St. Paul Pioneer Press ^ | 9/4/02 | AP

Posted on 09/04/2002 11:28:44 AM PDT by toast

WASHINGTON — President Bush canceled a planned visit to Minnesota on Friday, the White House said.

No explanation was offered, and officials did not return repeated phone calls Tuesday.

Bush had planned to come for a roundtable discussion and a speech on welfare in Minneapolis.

Bill Walsh, the chairman of the state GOP, said he had not heard of the cancellation.

"It was not a political event," he said. "We're hoping to get him back any time."

Blair is coming on Saturday to meet him at Camp David. Things seem to be moving awfully quickly all of the sudden.

Congress is meeting at Federal Hall this Friday. We were joking, on that thread, that it would be a really cool place to declare war on Iraq.

It was a joke, son.

Although if it happened, I'd have to give Bush credit for having an *incredible* flair for the dramatic.

Sorry to disaagree with you all, but I doubt this is the start of anything yet.
Everytime the President blinks, everyone jumps up and down as if it is a sign from above. Sorry to be so blunt, and please feel free to flame away.

I've got the New Moon in January in the pool (after the holidays, cool weather for better ops in MOPP suits), but I think the New Moon in September is Friday. < checking, checking> Yep, 9/6/2002 is a New Moon.

Darkness is the friend of our military. We see in the dark much better than our adversaries.

After all the hype, Dubya could just sneak up behind them and say, "BOO!" and they'll wet their collective republican guard pants.

God Bless America!

I know it is not possible....but it would be so bold to begin the first strike on Sept 11th. I cannot WAIT until the people of Iraq are free from that barbaric horror..and I cannot wait until citizens from the free world smote Saddam's factories of horror. It is time to prevent absolute horrors (genuinely evil people) from using nuclear and biological weapons to incite fear upon the entire world.

How Blessed we are, how very fortunate we are, that with our power, we have chosen to free others rather than take them over and forever hold them in bondage-the rest of the world is fortunate that we live by this rule of law, as well. When we use our power to help others who are TRULY held in slavery, I don't mind paying taxes so much.

The legal full moon of September occurs the night of Sep 6/7 aka Rosh Hashanah. Saturday evening, the 8th, will be the first time the crescent or "fingernail" moon is visible to most.

I had known that Geoff Hoon, the British defense minister, was to shortly arrive for a week's visit in USA, but I was not aware that Blair would be coming at the 9/8.

Looks like the gitgo.

You could be right. I guess we sense something is coming when people gather, and the President cancels something. But it could be anything.

I remember telling my son to come in from playing basketball when the Gulf War started. I remember saying "the planes are in the sky". My bet is that GW, in his speach to the nation on 9/11/02 PM will tell us all the same thing... The Planes are in the Sky.
