I ran out and bought a brand new Sony for my Gym when the Gulf War started just so I could watch the bombing while I worked out.

Guess I better start shopping for a new one.

I say that we have had Special Forces in Iraq for weeks now.

There will be an significant overt attack on 9-1 1pm edt

[Prodigal Son]

What constitutes attack? No need to answer. I'm sure there'll be a lot of arguing about that when it comes. I'll make my time dependent on the first announcement by a US government official who states a specific time- all other announcements after the fact will not count. So the first person- President, Sec Defense, Chaiman of the Joint Chiefs- who either states an exact time on his own or in response to a reporter's question- that's what I'm aiming to peg.

Dec 4, 2002- 23:36 Iraqi time.

The most major single attack on Iraq since the Gulf War occurred on Aug6 02 , don't know exact time. That was the Hiroshima anniversary. Sept 2 is the 57th anniv of the Japan surrender aboard a ship in Tokyo Bay.

NOT to begin during month of Ramadan which is about Nov 4 thru Dec 3.

Either will have already started before that, or will be postponed till after.

I strongly go with BEFORE, since I think we want to gore the goats of the Muslims as much as possible.

December 7 is NOT a full moon, nor is it a new moon. The new moon of December is Dec. 4; the full is at the 19th mol.

Very close. You say 1 pm on the 1st Sep EDT; I will say 8pm on the 2nd Sep EDT.

No more than 12 hours after USA Today polling shows bush's favorable approval numbers below 50% Eastern Time

You're another example of how the Clinton "administration" phocked it up for everybody following....great legacy of his, eh? You assume everybody is such a scumsucker,huh? Head back to DU

You assume everybody is such a scumsucker,huh?

Negative

I make this assumption only about politicians.

I hope you have a better tomorrow.

Well then you'd better narrow your blinders about politicians......Democraps are "politicians"; not all of their opposition are - some are actually Statesmen.....I sincerely hope you can clear the cobwebs so that you, too, may have a "nice tomorrow". I will. Now, you may "go home".....guten nacht.

[Sungirl]

I'll say....November 16th~midnight.

[Sungirl]

Why would you say that? Bush hasn't done anything because of polls.....why would you think he would be like a scummy, lying, manipulating, low life, gutter dwelling liberal?

[Momaw Nadon]

I'll say....November 16th~midnight.

Midnight in what time zone, Sungirl?

[WhiteGuy]

Well, no bold text this time, we're almost friends.

Democraps are "politicians"; not all of their opposition are - some are actually Statesmen

OK, "Democraps are politicians" I'd agree, some are much worse, almost whores I think.

"not all their opposition are" - technically true. I can think of only one who currently holds national office.

"some are actually statesmen" - hmmmmmmm, take a look at our Constitution, then compare to the "work" our politicians are doing. On this basis alone I disagree.

Thanks for the German "good night" - same to you.
