Bush: "There's one terrible pilot" (Dec. 4, 2001, his reaction to 9/11)
Text and audio clip at dubyaspeak.com:

And I was sitting outside the classroom waiting to go in, and I saw an airplane hit the tower -- the TV was obviously on, and I use to fly myself, and I said, "There's one terrible pilot."
-- Dubya quoting himself on his first reaction to seeing an airliner piloted into the World Trade Center, Orlando, Florida, Dec. 4, 2001

1. And George W. Bush has been one terrible president....
...so on November 2nd the American voters will kick him and his whole corrupt administration out of Washington. I hope then on November 3rd, arrest warrants and indictments are handed out to these bastards.

3. Which is a LIE.
The film/video of the FIRST WTC plane did not get into the hands of the TV networks until much later that day (9/11). There is no way he could have seen it that morning. PERIOD (unless you get very tin-foil-hat and assume someone had a camera trained on the WTC and a private video link to Bush).

If he saw the live footage of the SECOND plane, there should have been no doubt - even in his small mind - that what he was watching was a coordinated terrorist attack (Aug 6 PDB anyone?).

5. There is indeed a way that FratBoy may have seen the FIRST....
...plane strike the WTC. In order:

1. I believe strongly that the NeoCons knew when and where the terrorists were going to strike, and even what time of day.

2. FratBoy was in his limo headed to the Sarasota, FL, elementary school when the first plane hit. That limo is LOADED with the latest state-of-the-art communications equipment to included a closed-circuit television system.

3. Leave had been cancelled for most of the Army officers working in the Pentagon.

4. The FAA and NORAD were practicing several scenarios involving the hijacking of a commercial airliner.

5. Halliburton had made a major transaction on the stock market the day BEFORE the attack that resulted in huge gains for the corporation. Why? What did they know, and from whom did they get the information?

6. If the NeoCons knew when and where the attack was going to take place, how difficult would it have been to have operated a camera near the WTC that sent their feed directly to the closed-circuit system in FratBoy's limo?

Remember, this is the same guy that stated at least twice that being a dictator would make his job so much easier. Look at the decisions this man has made based on nothing but lies and distortions. How hard is it to believe that the NeoCons knew in advance about 911?

7. I was listening to the radio when the second plane hit
On the way home from my night shift job, at a little past 6 am here in Phoenix. The first thing I thought was: Oh shit! We're getting hit by terrorists! Why is it that I, a lowly equipment maintenance worker, could figure that out immediately but the President could not?
