[cynatnite]

[Hubert Flottz]

1. More lies!

Oh Boy!

[Gman]

2. Heaven help us

this guy could screw up a 2-car funeral.

[marmar]

3. I'm sure it will be a deep analysis of world events...

[ellie]

15. Ha!

I just scared my cat. Hilarious!

[SammyWinstonJack]

28. 9/11 terra terra terra 9/11 Saddam Hussein 9/11 terra terra terra!

Bad georgie bad

[leftchick]

4. IRAN IRAN IRAN IRAN!

TERRORSISTS! EVIL! IRAN! 9/11! IRAN!

[shadowknows69]

8. Sources report

that Iranians and Venezuelans were seen at the North Korean nuclear test site.

[cynatnite]

11. Some say Clinton was there

[kedrys]

17. I need new contact lenses - I thought you wrote "Elvis"

[whistle]

5. Maybe Shrub plans to tell the country he is resigning...

[cynatnite]

6. Oh, don't tease me

[eShirl]

10. I remember the pleasant surprise of Nixon's live resignation

(well, surprise to me, at the time)

sweet childhood memory

[SammyWinstonJack]

29. HaHaHa!

[shadowknows69]

7. Wow George putting in an early work day

I guess I lost the office pool. I bet on no response until Tuesday or instant nuclear war. Thank God I lost.

[shadowknows69]

12. I can't believe I'm going to watch it.

Maybe its a good week for a three day bender.

[lonestarnot]

41. Yuck ... Terrible we have to rely on this bitch under these

circumstances. And there comes the beaver, chimpy following now.

[HereSince1628]

9. Bush to welcome NK to the Nuclear Nations Club.

In a magnanimous show of waiving to the reality on the ground, echoing Sen. Majority Leader Frist's comments on the Taliban, Bush is set to suggest to the world that NK has too many nuclear weapons for Coalition forces to be able to destroy them, and consequently NK should be admitted to the Nuclear Nations Club and considered for a permanent seat on the Security Council.

[shadowknows69]

14. Not that thats a hugely better scenario

but a lot less likely than the clusterfuck GW will probably get us into.

[Trouser Trout]

13. Flip a Coin. It's Either Going to be Iran or N. Korea

Military Airstrikes coming.Bush has to play the terror card, he has nothing else, and he's been told he'll be impeached after the Nov. elections. October...........SURPRISE !

[radfringe]

19. don't have to flip a coin - just follow the "logic"

we attacked Iraq because there were no targets in "afghanistan" (where Bin-Laden/al-qeada reside)

given the N. Korean nuke test - bush will be announcing he is attacking Iran

[HereSince1628]

22. The new moon isn't until the 22 of October...it's gonna be NK

He will express the need to take this to the UN Security Council for "aggressive action" and will suggest John Bolten be given rapid approval as US Ambassador to the UN.

Then he will remind us of the great gas prices and the health of the economy.

[radfringe]

33. receptionist here at work thinks

whatever bush says - we'll be going to at least an orange alert...

I think it will be at least a gingham alert...

[SammyWinstonJack]

34. On the Sesame Street scale, Ernie's up.

[HereSince1628]

36. Isn't gingham a fabric rather than a color?

[radfringe]

58. when chertoff took over

he said he would not be using the terror alert colors anymore, but he didn't say what it would replace the colors

I decided to use fabrics:

old system / new system

green / flannel
blue / terry cloth
yellow / chenille
orange / gingham
red / argyle

[tenshi816]

46. What's he going to use for an army?

At this rate, they'll eventually have to raise the enlistment age to about 55 to avoid reinstating the draft.

[Botany]

16. Maybe he will announce that he is going to have talks now w/ N Korea

Idiot!

[BootinUp]

20. These guys never change their opinion

They'll take us all down with em insisting it was our fault their plan didn't work.

[shadowknows69]

18. If we're in WWIII by 10AM this morning

its really going to ruin my fucking week. Thanks you psychotic assholes that call yourselves leaders.

[cynatnite]

21. I hope not...I haven't finished reading Woodward's book n/t

[The Backlash Cometh]

23. Wake me up only if he's announcing that he's stepping down.

[pdxmom]

24. It will be a lot of hot air, signifying nothing. N/T.

[Solly Mack]

25. Lucky us. He'll be the uniter we know him to be

and the decider....and the protector....and the problem solver

He's got a lot of labels for the bullshit he dishes

[Trouser Trout]

26. That would make him the "Bullshitter" ? Sounds about right n/t

[ProgressiveEconomist]

27. Just a coincidence the UN Security Council is meeting at the same time?

Or is Dubya fending off a potential threat to his international supremacy as The Decider?

[hatrack]

30. Will he use the word "freedom"?

Gosh, I sure hope so.

[soup]

35. 6 words

[Mendocino]

60. As in "They hate freedom"?

along with evil, 9-11, Clinton, axis, resolve, nukler, terra, 9-11, Clinton, appeasers, UN inaction, Tony Blair is my dog, blame, Clinton, 9-11, Clinton, 9-11, Cli......

[bdamomma]

31. what now is he going to say

is he going to declare war with NK? now that's a scary thought

[Nimrod2005]

32. He better apologize ot the American people....nt

[Solly Mack]

37. If we recommend, we can keep this front and center

so others can read about it if they are unable to view it. Just a thought

[spinbaby]

38. Has it started?

Cube rats want to know.

[Solly Mack]

39. any minute now...they are showing the podium...just waiting on the jerk

while waiting, lots of speculation by "reporters"

"will this spark a nuclear arms race" "will other countries now follow suit"

and asking if it's been "verified" and "how" (spy planes, seismic results)

CNN saying Bush knew in advance...but he couldn't do anything

[Solly Mack]

48. Bush speaking: "working to confirm"

"Actions by NK unacceptable" (world joins in on this)

[Solly Mack]

50. "threats will not lead to a brighter future for NK nor weaken our

resolve in America..."

"the oppressed and impoverished people of NK deserve a brighter future"

He's done.

[Jeanette in FL]

40. He is running late

I guess they are waiting for the meds to hit.

2 minute warning given

[Solly Mack]

42. CNN just said "Bush knew in advance"

[Duppers]

43. you can find it live on washingtonpost.com

on now.

[Midlodemocrat]

44. And he still can't pronounce NUCLEAR!!!!

What a fucking moran.

[malaise]

45. They haven't even confirmed the claim n/t

[chat_noir]

47. MSNBC

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/8004316/?GT1=8618

[PCIntern]

49. Think he read those books behind him? n/t

[spacelady]

51. What's a peninshoola?

[Nimrod2005]

53. French for Chien? Means dog......You know they hate the french.

[Kadie]

54. I was just wondering how to spell it the way he said it.

I think you got it!!

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

52. Looks like Bunnypants had a tough weekend...

Why can't that doofus speak English? Peninshula, Good Lord.

Same ole, same ole...

[radfringe]

55. cube rat here with a very old computer

did smirk-boy take any questions? or did he just read he statement and slinker off?

[hvn_nbr_2]

56. North Korea has the bomb! Invade Iran! nt

[habitual]

57. "unprovoked act"

trying to eliminate blame from himself right away, he knows that he has a huge responsibility in this. He has bullied them, refuses to talk with them and threatens them. But now he is completely an innocent bystandard, never provoking anything.

[boise1]

59. About time to go mountain biking n/t
