IMHO I think that IF it goes until August, it will be before the 10th. My day is tomorrow.

I LIKE YOUR DAY CIGARMAN! lol!

Someone had commented that nothing would be done on a Friday as it is
a holy day...is there any truth to it? ...well there mustn't be, if that's what you are hearing!

and...with the prices of items already being raised completely out of reach for the average Iraqi citizen, doesn't their currency pretty much HAVE TO be revalued rather soon in order for their survival? Another whole month with things 'out of balance' seems rather un-likely to me...but what do I know?

Adam, Mike, Cigarman....your thoughts are ALWAYS welcomed and APPRECIATED!

Like Mike i will said after the meeting with Bush and Blair.
So at the begining of august the real fun will begin.I don't
see a RV in July but i can be wrong ;)

The first poster heard this and then a rebutle was made by someone else. I think they both carry merrit.

The peg announcement will not be made on July 21. It has been delayed for several weeks. I kind of warned you this might happen so please don't shoot the messenger!

TBI has contract to trade stock with countrys around the 27th of this month. I have not heard any postponement to these contracts. If that is true, URVC will happen before that date. In addition, I have not seen Maliki trip postponed either. He will be in town the 25th and 26th, what does the White House say's the trip is about?

We just know this for the 25-26:

President Bush to Welcome Prime Minister of Iraq to the White House

President Bush will host Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki at the White House on Tuesday, July 25, 2006. Under Prime Minister Maliki's leadership, Iraq is moving forward with key initiatives, including security, national reconciliation and economic revitalization. Prime Minister Maliki is working to improve the security situation across Iraq, as well as partnering with the United Nations to secure a new level of global cooperation through an international compact for Iraq. President Bush looks forward to discussing how the United States can best support the Prime Minister in these areas as well as discussing our ongoing partnership against terrorism and our mutual commitment to the principles of democracy.

WASHINGTON (AFP) -
Iraq's Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki will address a joint session of the US Congress on July 26, one day after meeting US
President George W. Bush, Representative John Boehner (news, bio, voting record) announced.


Maliki "will be here next week to speak to a joint session," said Boehner, majority leader in the House of Representatives.

The invitation for Wednesday, July 26, was slated for 11:00 am (1500 GMT).

Such invitations to address joint sessions of the US Senate and the House of Representatives are privileges reserved for the closest of US allies, such as Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, British Prime Minister
Tony Blair and Afghan President Hamid Karzai.

Former Iraqi interim prime minister Iyad Allawi spoke to a joint session of Congress in September 2004.

Bush paid a surprise visit to Maliki in Baghdad on June 13.

Let's see if I can translate the meeting for ya'll.
GWB- Thank you all for coming today, please welcome Maliki as he gives you some great news.
Maliki- Thank you Mr. President, let me first thank you all for liberating Iraq and helping us to become free from the evil Hussain. Now, for all those in this room that bought the Iraqi dinar to help us jump start our democracy, I want to thank you by saying that we revaled the dinar to the dollar at the exchange rate of $1.12.(quiet) Oh my, will someone pick Hillary Clinton up off the floor.(pause) Now, as I was saying, Tony Blair, George Bush, congress, all of you are very wealthy now as well as me (hehe, I bought some too) for helping us. Now that the reval has been done I need you to pressure big businesses to come to Iraq to jump start our economy(we offered deep tax relief). Again thank you for the help.

OK, what do you think of that meeting?

AWESOME! I love that version! It's like a skit out of Saturday Night Live!

...Now if it would only HAPPEN that way!

It will !!! You and I both know the rich use the general population to make themselves richer. Just this time some wise people let us in on it.

Hmmm..I like that cigarman!!! A dream or reality!!!! LOL

Pips, who knows, but I would think it's reality due to what's been happening the last two weeks. I think the Iraqi government is being pushed if ya know what I mean.
