As Lloyd Bridges said in Airplane, "Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit smoking."

[Dysart]

The fog of war?

[The Wizard]

yeah, I was watching and didn't hear anything

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

I got the heads up from a source in the news biz. We are juggling programming for the Presidential Speech.

It will be during the WEST WING!!! ha ha ha ha

Take that.. Martin Sheen you COMMIE RAT BASTARD!

President George W Bush will be speaking to the nation at 9pm this evening.

The link says no such thing. I'm not doubting you, but has there been any confirmation of this?

Hey saddam I told you 48 hours ago to be somewhere else!! you refused so now I will send you to hell!!

Saddam: "Heh-heh. I fooled you, cowboy. We didn't turn the clocks back from Daylight Savings Time last fall, so we did it today. I have one more hour!"

[RightWhale]

Any chance we don't begin the attack under cover of darkness?

Broad daylight and a full moon, too. A simple demonstration of overwhelming military superiority. Only a fool would stand against that. There's no point. Resistance is futile, etc.

Thanks for the ping. bttt

[TomB]

I repeat. Can you confirm this? There is NOTHING on ANY networks about a speech.

Disinformation is key at this point in time. I figured, the bombs would start dropping and Bush would get airtime in about 20 seconds from these media outlets and would not have to ask hours or even minutes in advance.

God Speed to all the troops, and may God Bless The United States of America, all the coalition countries, and their troops heading into Harm's way.

12 years is enough. We tried.

Let's Roll.

Please don't forget to pray for our troops.

Regards,
Joe

I linked the article. I don't know if it was on Fox. I got this directly from a news network source.

[Argus]

In an 11th-hour effort to avoid war, the Persian Gulf state of Bahrain offered Saddam a haven Wednesday. Arab officials said six non-Arab countries have also offered to take in the dictator.

Invitations were also issued by Guantanamo, Leavenworth, Pelican Bay, and Hell.

[ALS]

the link says this:

According to sources in Washington, D.C., President George W. Bush is tentatively scheduled to address the nation at 9 p.m. EST on March 19 (0200 GMT March 20).

[Mister Magoo]

My guess is the war will have already started at 8 PM Eastern. The announcement usually comes after hostilities have started. I don't think the US really cares about surprise here -- there's really no respect for the Iraqi forces.

[GiveEmDubya]

Haven't really read the comments on the thread or any articles on the thread, but do we know where the speech will be given from? If it's the Oval Office, 'tis the big one.

[Joe Hadenuf]

The first American to drag Sadam's dead body out of a hole gets a national standing ovation!
