The Big Three intros at 9pm:
> Katie Couric on CBS: “President Bush is about to deliver what is arguably his most important speech ever. He’ll lay out a new strategy for the par in Iraq, a war he admits we are not winning but insists we still can and must win.”
> Brian Williams on NBC: “For the 20th time in his presidency and for about the next 20 minutes from the White House, President Bush will address the nation. Tonight’s message has to do with a tough topic at a tough time. Moments from now, the president will announce he’s sending over 20,000 more troops into the fight in Iraq.”
> Charles Gibson on ABC: “In just a moment the president will address the nation outlining a new strategy in Iraq. This speech has been two months in the making as the president has held wide ranging consultations in Iraq.”
