Kerry On 9/11
Anybody know a good source on Kerry on 9/11? Specifically, how do we respond to his saying he sat with other Dems in the Capitol and "nobody could think," for 40 minutes between the 2nd WTC plane and the Pentagon?

(If I could search better here I'd find it myself.)

I've already pointed out that Bush was CIC, he sat not just for 7 minutes after being told, "America is under attack," but dallied around with the press conference and photo ops afterward for much longer before hiding out on AF1 for hours.

I'd like to respond directly to the Kerry statement, not talk about Bush so as not to appear to deflect.

Thanks.

1. See last Sunday's NYT Magazine
The cover article from the NYT Magazine on Sunday told a different story -- that of Kerry as calm in the midst of panic.

3. No, not me and didn't see it.
I'd be anxious to read it if you can put me onto it.

5. Yes it's very similar....the answer is simply watch "THE CHOICE"
There have been a number of accounts from people with Kerry at this time that say he was cool, unafraid, determined, and thoughtful.

After you see THE CHOICE...you'll realize why there are no other possibilities.
