    Bush on the morning of 9-11

    Someone please tell my why after nearly three fucking years people are suddenly all in a fuss about George Bush continuing to read to schoolkinds for seven minutes after finding out about the second plane hitting the WTC? You all act like this is new information. We already knew this on 9-11. The reason given for this was that he did not want to alarm the children and was waiting for the appropriate moment to excuse himself. I found this explanation to be perfectly acceptable at the time and nothing has changed.

    To suggest that he was more interested in a photo-op than in handling the situation is assinine. It was SEVEN FUCKING MUNITES, for christ's sake. Say what you want to about about Bush, but you cannot deny that he did a hell of a job in rallying the country in the dark days after 9-11. Even liberal asswipe Gerraldo Rivera said 'I'm glad he is my president' on his MSNBC talk show.

          Did you even watch the taped footage? Did you look into his eyes? Did you see the guilt? The fear?
          Beat it. Nothing to see here.

            If Geraldo said he was a "good guy" then it must be 100% true.

              Guilt? Why would he be feeling guilt?

                Planes were crashing into the country's tallest buildings, I think the reading could have been finished by the teacher.

                      I will agree that part of the movie was a bit too biased.. IMO it could have been done with out. I don't think there is anything Bush could have done at that point to stop anything already in progress. But overall the facts in that movie were nothing new to me..

                      I haven't seen enough information to be able to blame Bush for not acting pre 9-11. But it is a fact the guy was sleeping at the job before 9-11 and then just went full force into his personal agenda afterwords. Instead of uniting a great country, bush instead drove it father apart and down the wrong road.
                      In November, you can vote for America's next president or its first dictator.

                        So why didn't people get all bent out of shape three fucking years ago? Maybe because election time is approaching??

                                      You fucking idiot. It was a national crisis and the fucking PRESIDENT has no business being any fucking where reading books. Not to mention he should have been removed immediately for his own safety.

                                                That's right, he must have been in on it. Hehe! I bet you also believe that the tooth ferry assinated JFK.

                                                        Rick is one of the Globe and Mail's movie critics. The full review is here

                                                        A damming exerpt of dubya reads:

                                                        " Then, as the credits finally roll, George W. and his major players ? Rumsfeld, Rice, Cheney ? are seen in silent close-up before the TV cameras, their make-up being applied, their façades polished. Suddenly, the screen goes black and the silence is broken by the sounds of 9/11 ? no picture, just the screams, the tragic din. Now comes the kicker. A quick return back to Bush himself on that fateful morning, at a photo-op in an elementary school, sitting on a small chair at the head of the class. An aide arrives to inform him of the strike on the first tower, then on the second, and he simply continues to sit, his face the same blank stare.

                                                        The camera watches as the minutes tick by ? seven long minutes and still no reaction. The point is made with savage brilliance: Briefly left unattended, with no one to pull his strings, the dummy is inert and vacuous."

                                                              Have you noticed how much Bush has aged in 3 years??? The sad thing is that eventhough he has aged he hasnt gotten any wiser.

Maybe he should have gone on live TV and asked the remaining terrorists nicely to stop crashing planes into buildings. Do you think that would have worked?

Maybe he should have gone on live TV and asked the remaining terrorists nicely to stop crashing planes into buildings. Do you think that would have worked?
