MSNBC, 10:38am, 9/11/01: President Bush is on his way back to Washington
"He will hold a high level cabinet meeting, perhaps at Andrews AFB since the White House has been evacuated."

Ha. Ha. Ha.

Didn't that little bit of 'reporting' stand out to me watching the rebroadcast of 9/11/01. As we now know, chickenshit landed at Andrews at 6:34pm.

3. All I remeber seeing...
was Karen Hughes. The media really ought to lay off the propaganda bull. If I am anything like my fellow human beings, it only serves to stir up the anger...they may get their patriotic fervor, but of an entirely different brand.

5. I remember good ol' Karen, too...
...it seemed remarkable at the time that the first national statement by a member of the Administration was not Cheney, not Bush, but Karen Hughes. It so foreshadowed his habit of hiding behind the skirts of the adoring women in his inner circle. Pathetic, really; but on that day, I thought it was malfeasance on Bush's part. Dereliction of duty.

I won't even say what I think nowadays.

4. He walked into that school KNOWING the WTC had been hit.
Nothing forgives that. Nothing.

But it is the best argument I know for MIHOP. He didn't have to act, because it wasn't over. Better to get his alibi well established.

Generally, I'm LIHOP. But this is stunningly abnormal behavior.

"Attacked by terrorists, attacked by terrorists" when we didnt know what was
happening at the time.................now we know it was the CIA
