Will Kerry be allowed a Democratic response to Bush tonight?

[WI_DEM]

This speech is be given for nothing more than Bush's political standing--he knows he is taking a dive in the polls because of Iraq. I think Kerry or someone should be allowed to give a Democratic response to this speech. I haven't heard if this is going to happen or not. I also hear this is the first of several speeches that Bush is planning on Iraq--are they all going to be aired in primetime national tv?

1. I got a laugh this morning because the networks aren't going to cover

the speech (unless KKKarl strong arms them and they change their mind!) because they don't think he will be saying anything new. I guess "stay the course" isn't newsworthy anymore!

His little progaganda stunt is already starting to backfire.

2. That's because it's sweeps. Networks can't air re-runs.

3. I didn't know that

Good!!

4. I nominate General Zinni to give the Dem response

man did he tear apart Bushco last night

5. No kidding

He was fantastic last night. He was everything you'd want in a general. He was scathing in his criticism of the 'civilian leadership' at the Pentagon.

Now whether the civilian leadership is all that should be questioned or not is another matter entirely.

8. Oh my!

Zinni is a lifelong rebublican. ??? He did it because it was the right
thing to do.

6. Only Fox Cable will carry it.

Its pay TV. Only the brain dead that worship IT* will bother to watch.

That the press will give him plenty of time for rebuttal.
