Here are some of the words of some of those kids who were 7 & 8 the day that Andy Card told Bush about the second of the Twin Towers being hit. They are all seemingly either more understanding than most of us give kids that age credit for or they have been brainwashed by Republicans. I am sure I know what some who may read this will say.

At any rate these kids, as high school juniors, have more real understanding of the "My Pet Goat" story than most of the haters.

I see that no haters are willing to get into this one. I wonder why that could be when just last evening I read more than one post that mentioned the way Bush reacted that day in September. It is very obvious that they either didn't want to take a chance of seeing something they didn't want to see or just didn't want to take a chance.

Good idea. Too bad it doesn't work well.

They were kids and are now teens. They still don't know better, but they will when they become adults. Plus i am sure their parents told them what to say or how to say it.

Stupid though Bush is, it's not as if any action on his part would be helpful. The military commanders should have know what to do and taken over at that point. His lack of action is excusable by the fact that he is a pretty useless person with a low IQ. I could not care less how he acted that day.

LOL, just squash all their good memories of being part of history. Let them go to a liberal college and their memories will be erased soon enough.

If Bush is stupid then what is Obama?

Since he took office he has kept open Gitmo, extended the Patriot Act, expanded the TSA, invaded Libya, continued the war in Iraq, doubled down on Afghanistan, gone into Pakistan, threatened to bomb Iran, increased number of predator drones, continued extraordinary renditions, used a flexible interpretation of the Constitution.

Every single thing Bush did, Obama has continued or expanded.

If Obama is stupid, that doesn't mean Bush is not stupid.
