Might as well start up the live thread. Speech starts at 10:30 EST (scheduled), which is within the hour.

Powell coming close to calling the inspectors dupes.
The question I hope he answers is are they WILLING dupes?

[HairOfTheDog]

I met Powell at a dinner/speaker forum in Seattle a few years back. He is a very imposing presence in person.

[The Vast Right Wing]

The financial markets seem to think that Saddam is toast, They went up 80 points as soon as Powell started talking.

[BADROTOFINGER]

Ok, be back in a few...JFK

[mhking]

BTW, Screw the French.

[Howlin]

Well, we got it: our Stevenson moment!

[Mo1]

Dang those are pretty good pictures

[Molly Pitcher]

Agree with you....seems like Fox News should be rewarded with Condi's interview, but maybe she'll be there too:-))

[eyespysomething]

Argghh CSPAN site is too slow, and my internet radio WENT TO COMMERCIAL11111

[Tennessee_Bob]

I'm at work and television deprived - could y'all keep us updated?

No matter what is said by Powell here, the peaceniks at all cost will not be satisfied.

Of course not. By this afternoon the talking point will be "why shouldn't Iraq have these weapons, we have them, should we go to war on ourselves?"

I hate peaceniks.

[headsonpikes]

LOLOL!!! Must be close to the last circle of the Inferno.

Great pic!

[baseballmom]

The Hollywood Maroons will STILL say, that Bush is the illegimate president, selected not elected dontcha know, he is a cowboy too quick on the trigger, he is going to war to steal the Iraqi oil, and avenge his father's honor, and leading us down a path straight to hell. Do ya think that about sums it up???

[Quilla]

"The four in red squares are active [chemical] munition bunkers."

[freebilly]

Ping

[Wphile]

LOL!

[TrappedInLiberalHell]

Colin Powell is awesome!!!!

Can you imagine Madeline Albright doing this presentation?

[section9]

Powell was never a warfighter. But, at times, it pays to have a good staff officer like Powell who knows how to give a briefing. This is like falling off a log.

Now he's showing the UN vehicles approaching the sanitized bunkers.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

"Telling that some is from human sources is dangerous. "

Well, yes, but that should be obvious with some of this stuff.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Might have been scrambled in a way we were able to reverse.

True. Thanks. Clinton's "digital divide" program to provide the third world with high speed technology was not wise.
