Far, far cry from the great President Obama, who has succeeded where Bush and the GOP have consistently failed.
And if that's the case, the Secret Service surely knew that, too, and worked their plans around it.

Now, you know damned well Bush's behavior reflected his knowing what was coming down beforehand.

He may have been a colloidal idiot, but he was an informed colloidal idiot.

He did his job as best he knew how, and was told.

And he's got people monitoring the situation who will brief him as soon as possible.

I'm just trying to inject some logic into this conversation. Sorry.
If he was the commando guy and the decider.....his words,
he should have just got up on his own....

so if the govts. story is all true....
why did W continue reading to the kids after the 1st one hit and then stand there frozen after the 2nd one?
Ok, I could see him thinking (again though, I don't know if he was told that it was a commercial jet) that the 1st plane was probably just a small private plane that crashed into it and carried on his business,
however on the 2nd one?
Well, again, if there was no shadiness going on, how do you explain his, at best, different, at worst, bizarre, behavior, in the classroom?
Trolling, would be if I just come out and said W was caught with his pants down, knew something was up and just sat there since his plan when through and he felt guilty, what a slimeball....
however, I'm trying to see, particulary what conservatives and GOPers, come up with, in their explination
Good lord. Can we let this go? FahrenHYPE 9/11 did a moment by moment breakdown suggesting Bush made eye contact with his staff and gave a head nod of acknowledgment.

We have enough conspiracy theories for one week.

Head nod of acknowledgement and still continued to read to the kids?
That even makes it seem (again seem, not is) more like he's acknowledging his plan to ignore warnings so he can invade Iraq and take this country to a police state worked.

People have been dissecting it all for years. If there's no firm answer at this point, then there's not going to be. We took the country in a new direction, ended the war in Iraq and closed the chapter on 9/11.

I just don't see much value in beating this dead monkey.

Clearly from your posts a logical answer is only one which you happen to agree with. Let me guess you're one of the group of people who think the moon landing was faked?

Instead of attacking what I want as a right, logical answer, why don't you come up with one?

What sort of answer are you looking for? People have been asking this question for 10 years. I just don't understand. Some people believe it shows he was expecting the attacks, others believe he was in control and didn't want to disturb the children.

Pick your side. There's no definitive answer.
