1. He's doing damage control.
Going to say everything is all right, and to go back to ignoring everything or the terrorists win.

24. Is this all networks, or just cable?
And why 4:40 p.m.? Oh, that's right -- it doesn't give the news shows time to put together an analysis of his remarks. By tomorrow whatever he says will be old news, so he'll have gotten his message out without any criticism or analysis.

Just the way Karen Hughes/Karl Rove want it.

4. 4:40 he can't wait and hour or until the evening news?
Oh that's right they have to give the networks time to edit and package it like they tell them to.

6. He has to wait till the stock market closes
Or they will show those embarrassing superimposed pictures of the market tanking more with each inanity he utters.

9. Why do they give him airtime?? That was reserved always for
important national crisis, etc. like declaring war or talking after a tragedy, blah blah. I'm sick of them giving this goddamn 200 million dollar War Chest in Chief FREE time. What could that sack of shit have to say: 9/11 was so important that will will testify (you mean after you tried every goddamn thing possible to not even have a commission). We are up against the impossible.

Al Sharpton's worst case scenario is true.

17. Announcing the date of the Victory Parade through the streets of
New York City.

"We got him!" Osama's head on a pike, with Saddam trussed up naked (except for a loincloth - don't want another Janet moment) underneath the post.

Just don't mention the freezer burn on Osama's head . . .

20. Got any links?
Also, is it just remarks or a bona fide press conference? He always does press conferences without much notice. Stinkin' boy prince/coward.

26. Democracy Now just reported or repeated the information coming out
of the Iranian newspaper that was talked about last week about the U.S. unloading WMD stuff/supplies(?) at the port in Iraq. Heard from a friend of a friend of a friend coming back from Iraq that they found and are sitting on 'things' and that one of our corporations is
'handling' the storage and the set-up.

Will this come out soon if not this summer? So, how will this be validated or ripped apart? How long does it take to have Blix, Ritter, Kay types verify authenticity or will there be an opportunity to do it? How does this villify the Senators and the Congresspeople who voted for the war/killings.

If you were the cabal/PNACers, WHEN would you bring things out relative to the elections?
