Updated again.
The speech is now over. Let the slicing and dicing continue!
(Sorry, I had to pop out for awhile).
Looks to me like the Preznit repeated a portion of what he said on the radio yesterday and that's it. Same old, same old. Presenting a slighltly humbler(fake) image with more candor(calculated), yet the same lack of substance we have come to know and not enjoy, desperately seeking to get his abysmal numbers up. How sad. Now MSM is fawning all over him making this event even sadder.
We can take encouragement that any bump Bush may get will likely not last.
What do you think?)
(Thank you for recommendending this diary).

WASHINGTON - The White House unexpectedly announced Monday morning that President Bush will hold a news conference at 10:30 a.m. ET.
Details were not immediately available, though the question and answer session will be held at the White House.
The president has traditionally made an opening statement at news conferences, but it was not clear if he would do so at this one.
Sunday night, Bush addressed the nation on his Iraq policy, asking that Americans "not give up on this fight for freedom."
MSNBC.com will update this report as information becomes available. The entire news conference can be viewed live on the website.

I have word something bad is coming down in January. I speculate on it on my blog and scare away readers. It's Christmas time and we want to enjoy the high, right? So I won't bring you down here.
Freedom requires vigilance.
Peace.
