Eschaton Assignment Desk Part 2

Earlier, I asked the Washington Press to inquire about Jack Van Impe's claims he'd be contacted by the White House to discuss the Middle East. Reader JG contacted Jack Van Impe's office and this is what they responded:

"On July 7th or 8th we received a call from Justin Bush of the Office of Public Liaison for the White House asking Dr. Van Impe to attend a meeting with Dr. Condoleezza Rice and a few other faith-based leaders to discuss President Bush's "Roadmap to Peace in the Middle East."


"Due to a busy taping schedule for his weekly TV program, Dr. Van Impe was not able to go to Washington for this meeting, but we told Justin Bush that he would be taping a video the following Saturday that will be sent to Dr. Rice as soon as it is finished. That tape, "The Roadmap to Peace: Potholes & Road Rage" is currently in post-production and will be sent to Dr. Rice and President Bush upon completion."

I can't wait.
