I'm sure you'r correct.

That CNN and MSNBC are covering it is strange though.

I would imagine some bombshell is going to be dropped and the networks were told something important would be in the speach. Could be some positive proof of WMD in Iraq, a viable threat to the US or any other important announcement. Votes are there for Estrada for example (I doubt this one).

My favorite wish would be a Special Opp raid in Iraq that provided proof of AlQueda in Iraq.

Or have Bush present a big Heinz pickle jar with Osama's head in it.

I agree, the fact that the cable channels are preempting their regular programs has to mean something. I will of course listen and if he does say "The liberation of Iraq has begun" I will jump for joy.

But I think we have a few more weeks if not a month. Like someone posted earlier. The 101st does not have its helicopters unpacked. There are alot of units they could go without but not those guys. Their mobility will be essential. Also I mentioned earlier about the inspectors...maybe we won't try and get them out..maybe that would be too much of a give away. Besides we will need them to actually start inspections once we get things stabilized.

I get a little frustrated we have wasted so much time in my opinion. I know those grunts over there are getting antsy...I know what the "hurry up and wait" drill feels like. It ain't pretty.....but they'll "ruck up" when the time comes. I just hope it is soon.
