Do you think Obama would have had a better first reaction after learning that a passenger jet had plowed into the Trade Center?
"when he later recalled his thought process upon learning of the first plane to a Florida third grader named Jordan: “I used to fly myself, and I said, "There's one terrible pilot",
I don't think it really matters what Obama thought because he wasn't President at the time. I really have an extreme dislike for Bush, really quite extreme, but I don't really fault him for his reactions on 9/11.

"when he later recalled his thought process upon learning of the first plane to a Florida third grader named Jordan: “I used to fly myself, and I said, "There's one terrible pilot", and I said, "It must have been a horrible accident. But I was whisked off there - I didn't have much time to think about it."
Please post a link to where the SS told him to just keep sitting there for several minutes. That's the first I've heard of that one.
Not sure about a link, but what I remember from that day was that someone, an aide or maybe a Secret Service guy came out and delivered the news to President Bush. Some say 7 minutes elapsed before he responded in any way, I don't know about that. Then I remember the same or similar man came out after the second plane crashed. I don't remember what happened after that. The entire nation was stunned. Is it any wonder that the leader of the nation was stunned? Kvetch all you want about Bush, but I think he did the best he could under horrendous conditions. I wish nothing like this on President Obama or our nation.
Really? Good to know! I feel the same! My comment was NOT about 9/11 being funny but about an idiotic comment Obamma could easily make. Got it???
No I don't, this is about how Obama would have reacted when told that a plane had been crashing in the tower.
If you want to make it funny, good for you, but have fun on your own.
