Are Bin Laden's finger nails being extracted?

I guess we'll see what Bush says tonight.

J, Bush press conference tonight at 8 Eastern.

G, real news sources say no, he's not announcing UBL capture.

yes, tonight. there is an evening press conference scheduled at 8pm EST at the white house. It is not yet known if the major three networks will interrupt prime time programming (gotta see the latest episode of survivor without interruption, I suppose).

FOXnews will carry it, but we don't have cable at work.

Don't get too excited, kids...it's probably just going to be some silly b.s. where Bush mentions the word "disarm" seven or eight times, tells us that we have to do our part if a war comes, stresses that we don't want to go to war, but will do so with or w/o a UN resolution, and it will end with "God bless America."

You're welcome.

Yep, that's what I figured, too. You know, i'm <i>so</i> tired of hearing the words "weapons of mass destruction". Jesus Christ -- is there something wrong with changing it up a little?

Why doesn't he just practice in the mirror? I mean, I don't interrupt multiple networks during prime time just to tell them that the sky is blue.

I watched part of it last night.

He still doesn't know how to pronounce 'nuclear' and he used that other word about 12 times in 3 minutes.
