1. Maybe the Map Room?

From here (and a good article):

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=103x255910

“All the world is really watching,” proclaimed Bush press secretary Tony Snow, “and it’s important to get this right.” Toward that end, as The New York Times reported, “The president’s aides were contemplating having Mr. Bush deliver it from the White House Map Room, a site replete with the history and imagery of World War II—imagery that Mr. Bush has invoked as he has sought to compare the campaign against terrorism to the struggle against totalitarianism and the Nazis. But the Oval Office, a more traditional setting, was also being considered.”

10. no that's tomorrow

he's suppose to be at some military base to give a cut/paste version of the speech to drum up support outside of D.C.

lots of ooh-rahhs and "we who are about to die for your freaking stupid war salute you" photo ops
