B-1 ...one of the most beautiful aircraft ever made.

Saw them at Mountain Home, ID.

[TLBSHOW]

I just heard it is to a conservative think tank group if I heard it right.

1. The Turks have agreed in principle, but not the first US Soldier has deployed there let alone their equipment.

that is not the truth....

only idiots would believe we are NOT already there...

not one eh? just WHERE are those pictures from? try this link out:

The turks pulled their people out of the embassy in Iraq today... guess what... our guys have been coming in for weeeeeks now.

If this speech is on his vision of Iraq after the liberation, it will be a "whether we're going in or not is a done deal", "finished", now here is what we want for post-Saddam Iraq. This will give time for all the whining, screaming, spinning, etc to cool down before we actually start bombing.

I agree a few more things have to get into place.

That's right, American Enterprise Institute. I learned later in the thread.

[Trust but Verify]

I think we'll attack mainly from the air for at least the first few days, so there there is no need for the 101st to be in place right away.

Not necessarily. We may plan on using them and other forces to rush in to preserve the oilfields from destruction. You can't do that from the air. Another real possibility is to secure known chem/bio facilities so their contents cannot be hauled away.

Thanks for the link. Seems there's a dinner in honor of Allan H. Meltzer at AEI tonight. I imagine Bush is speaking at that dinner. Odd venue for a speech about Iraq.

[Trust but Verify]

I heard Rush talking about this myself. He didn't say anything of the sort. He hoped Bush would show pictures of the places we were, at that very moment, destroying.

[pt17]

Dubya's reached that stage on Iraq. If it's time to shoot, shoot. But stop talking about it...

I concur. It's past time for him to stop talking the talk until he's serious and ready to have us walk the walk.

[txrangerette]

Bush speaks from AEI, not Hoover...

[RoseofTexas]

Do you know when the UN inspectors are supposed to be out of Iraq?

By sundown.

[smokeyb]

My wife told me that the 91 attack was on a Wed.

correct ! I remember it well ! I remember where I was and I know it was Wednesday !

[cookcounty]

Maybe he accepted the "debate" challenge. I know it's totally off the wall, but there might actually be some benefits to accepting it (for example, knowing exactly where Saddam is a a certain point in time---maybe we could watch him being taken out--live.)

[rwfromkansas]

Is this an address to the nation or anything big? I don't think so because it is at 7 p.m. eastern, 6 p.m. central...wouldn't a significant announcement probably be carried later in the evening?
