That might be why there was the reporting lag, so they can confirm his identity, and then whisk him out of the country for his and their safety.

I bet he was too when they told him, I'd love to see it but I know, alas, we will see a calm determined resolute Pres Bush when he comes on at noon.

Bones was on here earlier posting the original news conference, and getting translations from some of the IPGC members who were answering questions.
He done good!

I was watching that. At one point someone kept asking a question over and over and one of the people on the panel said something like "Hey, it's a free country now". I'm not sure what the exact context was but hearing that was funny.
To: tmp02
He's probably on some island, in a secured detention center. (Maybe a carrier brig, or Kuwaiti prison?)
I know the terrorists and Ba'athists can't get to him immediately.

I bet the Officers would be the right age to have seen the movie and understood the meaning about it. Those who are quite younger, would have watched it at some point to appreciate the movie.

Odierno mentions 'very disoriented' and then is cut off. I sure would like to know what he was GOING to say...
