A senior White House official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Bush is planning a sweeping campaign against terrorist groups that could last several years. The official seemed to be bracing the public for the likelihood that, although Bush may not act quickly, he will act forcefully with a series of strikes.

"Now that war has been declared, we will lead the world to victory," Bush said.

Hi CR,

I don't know if you've had a chance to see the CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald, Howard Lutnick, on TV. They apparently lost over 700 of their 1000 employees at the WTC. He made reference to the number of calls made by employees to loved ones as their plight became all too clear. Very sad.

I'll admit to being a cynic when it comes to corporate management....this man was genuinely distraught...lost his brother and many friends. As I watched, my heart ached for him and I cried.

A very sad time for the human animal.
