2. Those students were with Bush when he realized his ineptness had
allowed terrorists to commit the worst attack ever on American soil.

Or they were with him when the first stage of his evil plan to become Dictator of America was put into effect.

5. The first stage was when five Supreme Court justices put in
Edited on Tue Sep-05-06 10:44 AM by petgoat
their seats by Bush's daddy and Bush's daddy's boss voted to stop
the counting of votes and declared him the President-elect.

When a complicit media let them get away with that, they knew
they could do anything.

B*sh the First.

12. Right. Reagan appointed Scalia, O'Connor, and Kennedy,
and elevated Rehnquist to Chief Justice.

Reagan was Bush's daddy's boss.

Of the six, only Souter broke ranks and stood up for the
principle of counting votes.

6. Even if 9/11 was a complete suprise to this administration (which I doubt)
I don't think Bush ever had that little moment of reflection, where he realized that he fucked up and it was his fault.

He is incapable of that level of self-analysis.

3. When my son was in diapers and his face turned red
It meant that he was in the act of a BM.

7. Propaganda or fluff?
Is this piece propaganda or just fluff news?

Timing is suspicious

15. Propaganda for 6&11 news to dispel Moore. Link is blank now.
This popped on the 6pm news in Detroit and made Bush look good with kids who were saying that they wanted to go visit the WTC memorial site. Kids for Bush, better for Bush, THOSE kids for Bush, even though none talked about Bush.

NOW, when I talk to some Repub voter about what happened, they'll remember kids for Bush in their minds while I speak.

8. I wonder if any of them thought...
..."wow, every second he stays here is another second I'm a target."

9. Just sat there while the world burned.
I hope that one day someone can investigate 9/11 as a criminal act. I'm sure one of the prime suspects is Little Lord Pissypants.

13. I have always said that Bush could have slipped out of the room
Edited on Tue Sep-05-06 04:08 PM by Lisa
... by saying he had to use the lavatory! Ideal excuse for a quick exit, and the kids would have loved it. Probably never even crossed his mind. He had some elaborate song-and-dance about how he couldn't have left the kids without panicking them. And then he sat there and sat there. Nonsense! (The way he struts, it looks as if he has to go anyway.)

What really gets me is how he had the kids in that room when he was making the statement to the press -- not only could they have been at risk, if he was a potential target -- but I'm sure it was scary for them. So much for not frightening the children.

16. Didn't want to panic the kids? He held a fuckin news conference in
the classroom with the kids behind him!

He could have easily got up and said, "Excuse me kids. Something has come up which needs my attention." and left the room.
