Bush Speech Proxy Coverage

I had insufficient time to give the President's "New Way Forward" speech due attention tonight, but Mary Katherine, blogsitting for Michelle, threw the pre-game party, Allah hosted an open thread, and John Hawkins and Jay Stephenson went liveblogging for the speech itself as well as Dick Durbin's asinine response.

Postgame:   Hugh Hewitt critiques the President's performance and Mary Katherine rounds up the fors and againsts among GOP Presidential hopefuls.

Other Stuff:

• Text of the speech
• White House fact sheet
• Mistakes and remedies

Update:  From FNC's Hannity and Colmes":

Rudy Giuliani:  If this works, George Bush doesn't win.  America wins.
Hannity:  And the world wins.
Rudy:  Yeah, the world wins.

And later in the broadcast...

Tom Vilsack:  We've been [in Iraq] for 5 and a half years.

We have?
