Bush Speech to Try to Assure Americans on Iraq

The stakes are enormous for Bush, presidential historian Doug Brinkley said. With his public standing "heading into a downward spiral, it is imperative that the president appeal directly to the American public. It's one of those moments historians will look at decades from now," he added.

In Monday's speech, which will be carried live by the cable networks at 8 p.m. EDT (0001 GMT), Bush will outline U.S.-backed plans to establish an interim government that would pave the way for free elections.

Bush is responding to opinion polls and public pressure from fellow Republicans, including Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Richard Lugar of Indiana, who urged the president to provide specific details and not just "generalization."

3. Bush the swan
Just be sure you're watching the right channel; with shrub's recent "bike" fall (:nopity:) and injured face, he might pass for one of the chopped-up girls on "The Swan."

5. Don't you mean
He doesn't govern without polls. Oh what the hell, he doesn't govern at all.
