I agree. Something is BIG. He is not messing around and he gets much more fluidly articulate when he is mad.

Hmmmm.

Sharing how program has saved lives.

Why it deserves support of Congress and American people

Perhaps he caught wind of someone leaking the proof we had secret prisons and wants to get out front and minimize the impact.

Frankly I think it's a plus that we have them and keep the most savage of the ragheads i them.

"Information gained from these detainees have helped save lives here and around the world".

Well, they don't "have" to. Networks always used to carry presidential speeches, but there are so many other options now - cable news channels, radio news, streaming audio/video on PCs - they don't have to. They decide in favor of their sponsors and revenue streams.

We will not divulge where these prisoners are being held and questioned as that would create a security threat for our people.

These are dangerous men with knowledge about new attacks. Security of our nation and people depends on abilitgy to learn what they know.

Specifics of the program and where they've been held can't be divulged. Doing so would enable terrorists to take retribution against our allies.

Info found from these terrorists have saved lives here in the US and across the world.

Examples of how program has saved lives and should be supported by the Congress:

Within months of 9/11 we captured Abu Zabata. We believe he was senior terrorist leader and trusted assoc. of OBL.
Our intel community thinks he ran terrorist camp in Afghanistan and helped smuggle terrorists out of that country after our forces arrived there. Zabata was severely wounded in firefight and he survived only because of medical care arranged by CIA.

After he recovered he was defiant. He declared his hatred of America. He disclosed nominal information then stopped cooperating. The nominal info he gave wasimportant. He gave us info on KSM - mastermind behind 9/11 attacks.

This was vital info which helped intel community find KSM. He also disclosed a terrorist attack being planned on the US whih previously we didn't know about.

Perhaps they need to be reminded who owns the broadcast bandwidth they utilize.

Don't confuse anger with resolve....

True, but sometimes one refuels the other, figuratively speaking.

Good! But if the NY Times gets the info, THEY will. Scum.

Nothing super big, it sounds like notice of and to the congress to work on detainee legislation.

I don't know what Tony actually said, it was not televised for us to judge.

It sounds like the MSM mislead us again.

Only the Boston NBC affiliate is carrying the speech here in NH.. Not one NH or Maine station is including the local Fox station.

Maybe. But to believe that you have to believe that the networks would have made the exact same choice if the Impeached Rapist were giving this speech.
