Not to put pressure on the First Marines but dawn Monday Iraq time would be just about the time Susan Sarandon and Michael Mooore start their screeching in LA

"Baghdad by Monday". Sounds like a George Strait song title.

George W Bush is a genius.
It will be very difficult for any future leader in this century to wrest away his title:

Well if "Crosby, Stills, Nash, Young, Taylor, Pelosi, & Daschle wrote it the lyrics would be praising Saddam. If George wrote it the lyrics would be about going there to kick Saddam's Azz.

It'll be good to be in Bagdhad Monday. Dust storms are far less bothersome there. :-)

Dan Blather who was interviewing an AH-64 pilot, Lt.Col Williams of the 3rd ID said they have crossed the Euphrates river. That means they are over half way to Baghdad already. At that pace they may be on the outskirts by Saturday night out time.

Thats a big step over the river..

Why don't we drop Michael Moore on Baghdad? That would be the ultimate "kinetic weapon."
