I know a lot of PW readers are not the "Watch the President's Speech" types, being too sensitive in the stomach or repelled by reptillian energy. However, this one is probably going to be worth it, given the timing, i.e., based on what's going on. Here, from CNN.com:

Bush plans 'major speech' on Iraq, terrorism
Democrats say they want to hear more than 'stay the course'

[um...but Repubs just want to hear more 'stay the course'?]

Thursday, October 6, 2005 Posted: 0239 GMT (1039 HKT) Programming Note: Watch President Bush's speech on U.S. efforts against terrorism, Thursday at 10 a.m. ET

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- President Bush will deliver a "major speech" speech Thursday on the progress of the war in Iraq and the broader conflict against terrorism, the White House said Wednesday.

Bush will deliver his remarks at 10:10 a.m. at a National Endowment for Democracy event in Washington.

Bush met with top military advisers Wednesday at the White House, telling reporters afterward that U.S. and Iraqi troops are on the offensive against insurgents who want to disrupt Iraq's October 15 vote on a new constitution.
