I wonder if the inspectors have already been evacuated from Iraq. Maybe the excuse of Blitz going back to Iraq is a cover story to allow the inspectors to get out to 'meet' with Blitz. Don't think that our President would ever intentionally leave them hanging in the wind. UNLIKE OUR FORMER PREZ WHO LEFT SOLDIERS IN SOMALIA.

"My Fellow Americans, I Have just Outlawed Saddam Hussein, and Iraq, the bombing begins in 5 minutes...

Say your Prayers,and May God Bless America"

[TrappedInLiberalHell]

we are still in a diplomatic mode on Iraq.

Perhaps President Bush has tired of saying 'nice doggy', and has found a bigger stick?

[Wait4Truth]

Start composing the e-mail now.

LOL! I think you're probably right. You know, I just cannot control my utter hatred for the clintons...I have even prayed about it but nothing works. I will not watch the show...I'll read about it on FR. I refuse to give him any ratings and I also would like to keep my blood pressure under control.

The Bush speechwriters are trying to figure out words that rhyme with "weasels".

[Howlin]

Over here.

And of course, it was the inspiration for the 2002 movie by that name (We Were Soldiers).

Ari had her [Helen Thomas] all flustered today when he asked her for sources....lol

Oh..i forgot about that. First she bashed Ari about Iraq being all about oil. Then Ari beat her (unfortunately not literally) with the fact if it was about oil US would simply buy from Iraq.

Helen later said Bush Administration had plans to take over oil fields and make new contracts with Britian, Germany, France etc. Ari asked her what her sources were and she backed down.

Measles?

[Wait4Truth]

Does that mean you are going to do a seperate thread when the President speaks? Count me in, girlfriend.

[hchutch]

I suppose.

[Puddleglum]

Maybe it's about the weasel scum Defacrats trying to filibuster Estrada.

[katnip]

Diesal the weasel?

[oyez]

Saddam: Somebody set us the bomb!

Assistant: Main screen turn on.

Pres Bush: Good evening gentlmen.

Saddam: Its you?

Pres Bush: All you base are belong to us.

[Delbert]

You forgoy forecast for next Friday ...10,000 degrees!

[Wait4Truth]

LOL!

[Fred Mertz]

Why did Bush wait until the markets closed for his announcement/statement?

[livius]

Pep rally to heap praise upon Powell.

That's what I think. Not that Powell doesn't deserve it! But I don't think this is going to be much of anything important, except perhaps one last call to the Froggies and the Krauts.

For one thing, the Muslims are all gathering in Mecca for their pilgrimage (the Haj) this weekend, and I don't think we'd want to attack with millions of spare Muslims out there floating around, and unable to get back to where they came from.
