[Support Free Republic]

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

Here's what Powell didn't say. We know where he moved the stuff.

Be Seeing You,

Evidence of house cleaning at more than 30 sites.

AND isn't he supposed to talk for an *hour and a half*??? He's just getting started!

Colin Powell and his family lived across the street from my parents in the late 70's. He and my dad used to chat while doing yardwork. I doubt if he still cuts his own grass now :)

[John H K]

Gee what will the Hollywood Moroons said about the inspections now??

You're awfully naive if you think a single person on the planet who opposes the war will have their mind changed by this presentation.

Nothing short of intercepts where people literally say "WMD" or "Nuclear" or "Biological weapon" or "Chemical Weapon" or satellite photos with "Nerve Gas Plant" signs on the roof of a building, or a photo of a guy holding a bomb with a nuclear symbol on it and "Atomic Bomb" in Arabic inscribed on it, would even have a chance of doing so.

Re: U-2 -- to be "fair" -- the Iraqis claimed that was to keep our planes from danger

Thank God we have adults in the whitehouse again!!

[GraniteStateConservative]

Good point, Chris.

[HairOfTheDog]

maybe we can get him to run for Senate against Hildebeast in 2006.

Maybe, I doubt it. Being a Senator would be kindof anti-climactic after the things he has done and seen.

Who cares what France's response is. I can't believe that Tony Blair didn't brief Chirac on this yesterday and Chirac still came out in opposition.

But then, maybe Blair didn't brief him...too untrustworthy. Hmmmmm.

DJIA and Nasdaq were slightly in the red at 10:20 EST, just before Powell began his speech. As of 10:55 EST, DJIA was +64 (+0.79%), and Nasdaq was +18 (+1.39%).

"Anyone cooperating with UN inspectors was committing treason"

Here's what Powell didn't say. We know where he moved the stuff.

BINGO!!

[Howlin]

Lord, there is so much here, in another 90 minutes, who could deny this?

I cannot keep up!

Scientist had to sign documents saying giving information would be reason for death!

[GraniteStateConservative]

That doesn't make sense. War is bad for the DOW.

[Jewels1091]

Would anyone like to see Saddam's face as he is watching this?????

[concerned about politics]

"Talking to inspectors punishable by death" -- Saddam

[Howlin]

And faced with DEATH!

Thank God we have adults in the whitehouse again!!

Praise the Lord!
