Jennings and ABC news - pretty good tonight
"U.S. Prepares to Gain Upper Hand in Iraq"
Violent opposition is law of the land
U.S. says it "has a plan"
No security patrols in Falluja
US plans on "retaking the towns". Soon.
- Slow squeeze
- Intelligence gathering
- Bombing
- Restrict Movement
- Iraqi forces to back up US forces
Summary from reporter: "Nothing has worked so far"

Next, reported on Kerry statements in Ohio
- Briefly showed heckler apparently getting "taken care of" in audience
- Kerry: $200B for Iraq, can't afford after school programs here at home
- Kerry: $200B for Iraq, can't afford health care for veterans
Followed up with a repeat of Bush's speech from same location 2 years ago
- "Hussein is a homicidal dictator and he has WMDs" or something to that effect

AWOL
Didn't fullfill obligations
After WH said it had released all documents, new Pentagon documents released (FIA-induced)
No record of Bush in AL
Quoted the pledge Bush signed that he would fulfill his obligations or could be called up for active duty

Bush in Fla
Helped relief workers hand out supplies... LOL
