His Imminence In his "Meet the Press" interview with Tim Russert, Bush said: "I believe it is essential that when we see a threat, we deal with those threats before they become imminent.  It's too late if they become imminent." No doubt Bush will go down in history as the pre-imminent American president of the 21st century. 1:53:21 PM

The Italian Stallion The retirement of Lennox Lewis as heavyweight champion came not a moment too soon.  In his final fight, with Vitaly Klitschko, he was en route to being roundly defeated when the bout was stopped because of a gash on Klitschko's face.  Lewis looked slow and out of shape, more Lummox than Lennox. Klitschko now seems the heir apparent to the heavyweight crown.  Despite being Ukranian, he continues to garner much of his support from Italians.  "Hey," said one fan, "His first name rhymes with Italy, his last name ends with a vowel, he's Italian." 1:22:06 PM
