On C-span 1 at 11 AM, scheduled for one hour. and you can expect all the cable news nets to carry it...and then Rush is back today, and will explain it all for us again..and it would NOT surprise me if the Veep turns up as a special guest on Rush's show today..

"Saddam had the burden of proof on WMD; we did not."

Exactly!
It was up to Saddam to prove he had no WMD. Instead he laughed at us, and believed France and Germany when they told him they wouldn't allow the U.S. troops to overthrow him; BAD MOVE.

I can just hear Gore screeching "He's playing on our FEARS..." I'm not afraid, just mad.

EXCELLENT!! But, we should have been hearing this from the White House since April 2003!

Never cease to amaze how NOTHING can be allowed on Free Republic without the usual suspects finding SOMETHING to complain about.

The work is difficult and there is much to do. In the war on terror, we place a loose network of fanatics from many countries. The branches of this network share the same dark vision of the world.

They want to end Western influence in their region of the world and want to wage war against governments that do not meet their demands. For a time, they had a base in Afghanistan and now they hope to turn Iraq's Democratic government.

They believe that by controlling an entire country they can establish a radical Islamic empire through the world. They have made clear their ultimate ambitions. To destroy Israel, control WMD, cause mass deathsa.

Some suggest we stirred up a hornets nest by goin into Iraq. They ignore we weren't in Iraq before 9/11. And the terrorists hit us anyway.

For many years, they grew bolder. In Beruit in 1983 they killed 241 of our servicemen and we withdraw from Beruit.

Mogadishu killed 19 Americans and we withdrew.

They concluded they could strike AMerica and we would withdraw.

Lists other terrorist strikes.

What sound bites will the left wing MSM use with this speech later? That is the sad reality.

This is a VERY carefully prepared speech meant to lay out the case in GREAT detail. He's hitting all of the left's talking points and very specificially tearing them into little pieces.

Damn but he's good.

I want to know who wrote this one for him. Odds are it was mostly dictated then simply word smithed. I bet Lynne contributed, as well.

I think you're right but I'll allow as they might want to try this for now. We'll see how it goes. Already the Dems have had a pitiful response over the House vote Friday night save Cheshire Biden threatening to filibuster Alito on Fox news.

We shall see. Gives Rush time to comment on it as well.

For once, for JUST once, I would like to enjoy a speech, without people criticizing what the administration hasn't done up to this point. But alas, it will never happen.
