MS. PERINO: Good afternoon. For all of you who have been traveling with us the past four days, we're finally on our way home, to D.C. The President gave his speech today at the American Legion. This was the first in a series of speeches he's going to be giving from now until the UNGA speech on September 19th. Again, the purpose of the speeches is to explain all that we are doing, and what the enemy is doing in the global war on terror, so that the public can clearly understand what we're fighting, how we're fighting, why we're fighting, and most importantly, why we are winning. On Tuesday -- actually, I have two scheduling announcements. Let me start with Monday. Monday is Labor Day. On September 4th, the President will participate in a tour of Paul Hall Center for Maritime Training and Education. He will make remarks about the economy on Labor Day at that event. It's in Piney Point, Maryland. And that event will take place sort of midday, leaving late morning and getting back early afternoon. Read more Comment (0), Email this.

MS. PERINO: Yes, it's just a day trip. It will be probably a chopper. But we'll give you details on that in the week ahead tomorrow. But just so that you have this for your planning purposes tonight and for your reporting purposes if you want it. And then on Tuesday, the President will be giving the second in a series of these speeches. It will be in Washington, D.C. The audience will be the Military Officers Association of America, and there will be many members of the diplomatic corps in attendance, as well. And with that, I'll take your questions. Let the record show there are no questions. Read more Comment (0), Email this.

Q Dana, I just was wondering if you could address what the President talked about today. He seemed to group together Sunni followers of al Qaeda along with Shiites in Iraq who are involved in the sectarian violence, and these groups are fighting each other. So I'm just wondering if you could elaborate on how he thinks these groups are united in one belief? ... Read more Comment (0), Email this.

MS. PERINO: Again, that's what I hope to be able to provide a little bit more detail on tomorrow, as plans are finalized. The speech today was an overall view with a longer section on Iraq, and it will go through the UNGA speech. But for the topics, I'm just going to have to ask for your patience and I'll, hopefully, be able to give you a lot more tomorrow. Read more Comment (0), Email this.

MS. PERINO: No, we have not announced all of those details yet. The one thing I can say is that the President will visit all three sites on the anniversary. Read more Comment (0), Email this.

MS. PERINO: Yes, but there could be additional travel, and I'm just not able to tell it -- to reveal that yet. Read more Comment (0), Email this.
