You're at a photo op, reading a book with schoolchildren and an aide suddenly whispers that a second plane has hit the World Trade Center. "America is under attack."
You're the president of the United States. What do you do? The staff of the 9/11 Commission this week released a report that summarizes Bush's closed-door testimony about his thoughts as he sat there.
"The President felt he should project strength and calm until he could better understand what was happening." - Washington Post (06/19/04)

I am new to your site. I find it quite ineresting. One thought, it is easy to judge sitting on this side of 9/11. We have no idea what was really told to the President at that time nor how we would have reacted had we been president. It is easy to say I would have done so and so but to be in that position 24/7 is a whole other story. Just my thoughts.
All right kids you've earned it: time for another recess!!!
{the Commander in Chief easily exits the school, and leads the United States of America in its time of need}
Buy some guns and ammo, for the TERRORISTS are running America! Between Cheney and Bush I don't know who is the stupider puppet. Keep spreading the TRUTH!
