Any predictions on what he is going to say?
" A coalition of our allies...."

How many tomahawks have we launched so far?

I think he's going to say NATO is taking over so our part was a 'victory' and never mention we also lead NATO so aren't off the hook, that we still will be doing quite a bit on the side, and that he never had any authority to do this.

hmmm... How can he express victory without using the word like George W. did... His speech writers are going to be working extra hard this weekend...

So far he's been quite content to do what Bush did, using only slightly different wording......

How about "Mission Concluded".....

All within the week congress was out of session....

Only it isn't concluded, but that didn't stop Bush, either.

OBAMA: I telling you what to believe... what to think, what to follow, what to back... safety, protection, help, suffering ALL THE BUZZ WORDS

"The American Dream"... because you have to be asleep to believe their propaganda bullshit.

If those Libyan Rebels were here in the US in the form of state militias... every single one of them would be labeled a Terrorist and Killed.

He's going to admit he was wrong, and will pull all forces from the area, then everybody will cheer and dance in the streets.

Here's a preview:

"We''re succeeding in our mission. We''ve taken out Libya''s air defences." Gaddafi's forces are no longer advancing across Libya. In places like Benghazi, a city of some 700,000 that Qaddafi threatened to show ''no mercy'', his forces have been pushed back," Obama said in his address to the nation.

"His forces must pull back. Humanitarian assistance must be allowed to reach those in need. Those responsible for violence must be held accountable.

Placing my bets now.

Forces on the ground that are eventually admitted to will be called "humanitarian". Obama and the press will claim they are only there for security and humanitarian reasons.
