Umm, not a bad read

But...

Roger Friedman is more into worshipping Streissand and whose party was best over the weekend.  Read his previous columns.  I wouldnt attribute any sort of Conservative label on him.  He's out there covering the beautiful people and telling us about the life we wish we could have if we were good enough.  His 411 is interesting if you follow the various scandals, like Michael Jackson, etc

Heh...when I read his column, I always hear that Mr Hallowell voice (Rich socialite that was in "Gilligan's Island)  :)

no it's not slanted.


"F9/11" isn't perfect, and of course, there are leaps of logic sometimes. One set piece is about African American congressmen and women voting against the war with Iraq and wondering why there are no Senators to support them. Indeed, those absent senators include .John Kerry, Hillary Clinton, and Ted Kennedy, among others, which Moore does not elaborate upon. At no point are liberals or Democrats taken to task for not speaking out against the war, and I would have liked to have seen that

On the other hand, there are more than enough moments that seemed to resonate with the huge Ziegfeld audience. The most indelible is President Bush's reaction to hearing on the morning of September 11, 2001, that the first plane has crashed into the World Trade Center. Bush was reading to a grade school class in Florida at that moment. Instead of jumping up and leaving, he instead sat in front of the class, with an unfortunate look of confusion, for nearly 11 minutes. Moore obtained the footage from a teacher at the school who videotaped the morning program. There Bush sits, with no access to his advisers, while New York is being viciously attacked. I guarantee you that no one who sees this film forgets this episode


Of all things this is one that tops the list of stuff that pisses me off.  On 9/11 we did not know we were under "attack" untill the second plane hit the tower.  Librals want to make a big deal that bush was reading to school children at the time....like that was such a hanus act.

Anyhow....I'll see the film and take it w/ a grain of salt.  Like you librals say considering the source what would you expect.

wonder what kerry was doing for 11 minutes after the attack... he probly figured out right away it was an attack and being a congresman he was calling his governor to help in any way he could to help with the fight right?  probly calling in and aranging for a transportation to the emergency meeting of congress he was organizing?  Or maybe just arranging transportation for the meeting he knew must surely come?

Conservitiles cant decide from one day to the next and one thread to the next whether Bushes poor record is a good reason to vote Kerry or not. Here we have a conservitile saying that
Bush did bad..but Kerry might have done the same thing.Like any reasonable person would have babbled on with drool dripping out of his mouth for 11 minutes while his country sustained its most severe attack in history.

reality check Anyone could have done better. Powell, Chenny, Ruhmsfeld, either Clinton, hell lazs you would have done better.
That is Bush.


We all know that Bush cant even respond to an unscripted question so why the suprise that he cant respond to an unscripted attack?  The man is an idiot. He thinks slowly and poorly and his speach reflects that disability.

Besides. it was the first novel he had read since Old Yeller and he wanted to see how it ended. Maybe chenny finished reading it to him on Air Force One.

I'm not sure he did much of anything...Here's how I break it down.


Bush:Puppet Pres

Ruhmsfeld:The party whip who didn't resign

Powell:A great man caught in the crossfire of politics

Chenny:The man who brought us all the "Pre-emptive strike" doctrine

and I suppose you were not like the rest of the world...YOU KNEW unlike EVERYONE ELSE in the first 11 minutes that it was an ATTACK....YOU did not have to wait for the second plane to hit.


And who says this guy is a conservative.....he's a columnist....not a journalist.  I thank God at least once a week that Al Gore did not win the election.....I cant even fathom his response....He'd probably appologize to the terrorists and ask them nicely to stop.

Clinton would have just lobbed a few more cruise missles and then bombed a few Iraqi anti aircraft missle sites.

Actually.
I dont know why I turned on the news that morning. I dont often. They were reporting the first hit and I called my sons to see the news.
how the hell can that happen accidentally i asked them.
I didnt get everyone to the basement..I didnt black out the windows. But I didnt go about brushing my teeth either. And Im not the president of the United States.
The man did nothing.
Dont make it seem like the danger of airliners as weapons had never been thought of before. It was well known and documented.

The man did nothing. It is pathetic. Its repulsive. Like he wasnt even curios. Defend him all you want. If it had been a liberal you would be roasting him for it. Over a slow fire and forever.

"Mr. President a plane just crashed into one of the WTC towers...we'll let you know when we have more info"

Why would he need to do anything after that.

11minutes later

"Mr. president a second plane crashed into the WTC we beleive we are under a terrorist attack"

Time for action.

Keep digging? How long do you think these 2 planes were being tracked before they impacted the WTCs?? Have you done any reading on protocal for airliners that unexpectedly divert from their normal flight path?? Notice I wrote 2, not 1.. There is a protocal and it goes very high in the chain of command.. With 2 planes diverted and essentially out of control, it could be known as fact the country was under attack after the first impact.. Infact, many high level officals were following protocal that day. Many were not.. This is just ignoring the 3rd and 4th planes..

Pongo, that whole psuedo-issue of what the President did during the first few minutes of the 9-1-1 attack never was of any significance. The Bush administration's decisive response to the terrorist attack is prima facie evidence.

I think you got out all the juice to be had in the first week it hit the internet, and that was months ago. Isn't it about time to pull that wad of of used gum out of your mouth and stick it on the bedpost?  Or are you trying to make it last until November??

Pongo. I have to agr... agre.... agree with the republiclowns on this one. The 11 minute lag time is pretty much a non-issue AFAIC. Confusion reigned, and I think anyone would have had to take a "wait and see" stance for a short time anyway.

Well, now that you mentioned it....

If only Slick hadn't bombed those baby food and aspirin factories the babies wouldn't have cried and the parents might not have been so grumpy without the headaches.

Answer my question, plowhead.  Here, let me repeat it for you.


How exactly did Bush leave the U.S so wide open to attack?

I have seen this video clip 3 times now...the most recent just this past week when our CBC TV network aired a show called the 5th Estate (repeated by request). I also saw it once on US TV.

here is one link...referring to CNN etc (read for yourself)

Source (http://www.ringnebula.com/Oil/bush_911am.htm)

It is about half the way down this long page under the column heading: BUSH
(9:01 a.m.)


Exceprt:

Bush later makes the following statement: "And I was sitting outside the classroom waiting to go in, and I saw an airplane hit the tower - the TV was obviously on, and I use 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."

I didnt get everyone to the basement..I didnt black out the windows. But I didnt go about brushing my teeth either. And Im not the president of the United States.
The man did nothing.
Dont make it seem like the danger of airliners as weapons had never been thought of before. It was well known and documented.

The man did nothing. It is pathetic. Its repulsive. Like he wasnt even curios. Defend him all you want. If it had been a liberal you would be roasting him for it. Over a slow fire and forever.


ya jump up and scare the hell out of the 8 year-olds he was sitting with.
He has a military staff whom were monitoring the situation. Beside correct me if I'm wrong but how long does it take to scramble an intercepter? to take down the second plane, He had only 11 minitues to get it up and to the plane that he didn't know exsisted or were it was going?

August 6, 2001 Presidential Daily Brief:  Bin Ladin determined to strike the US

What actions were taken by Bush in response?  Apparently, not very much.

hmmmm, let me put it another way.

Of course he's stupid, but the 11 minute lag isn't evidence of that stupidity.

Seawater is undrinkable, but the fact that it shimmers at sunset don't make it poison.

thought the paraniod left said it was the CIA that flew the planes into the WTC so bush could occupy iraq and we could pay record prices for gas so he and his oil buds could get richer faster

wonder what he'll get the CIA to do in the last weeks in Oct to insure an election victory in Nov ... :rolleyes:

some of you are overdue for your meds..

Nevermind...

I thought he was reading to the kids when the 1st plane hit. The timeline indicates that he knew about the first plane when the aid whispers in his ear about the second plane.

You're right Pongo... he waited way too long.

at which point he knew for certain it was a terrorist act

before the second one, 99.9% of the pop was not thinking terrorism

if you want a real 9/11 time line - Look HERE (http://www.billstclair.com/911timeline/main/timelinecomplete1.html)

of course this rolls back into the previous admin so the left will not bother with the facts

Exactly.. so why wait 11 minutes after he was "certain" we were under attack?

from the mouths of babes..

"There is one terrible pilot." lol

What he had to do was show a pulse guys..

Its connecting the dots. Airliner. WTC. Massive potential loss of life.  One of the most prominent landmarks in America or the world. How the hell could he walk away from the TV for a readalong.
Easy..Hes a mental midget and his handlers hadnt pulled his strings the right way yet.

if you cant respond effectively in a crisis because of the presence of some 8 year olds what does that say about you as a leader?

The second I saw it I imediatly stopped packing for work etc. How could he not respond the same way? Thats why people are so fasinated with this issue. Its says so much about Bush.
Its why he keeps well out of the public eye except in very very controlled instances. Cause he is stupid and it becomes self evident if hes observed directly for very long.
All hail the chief.

because it was handled? do you think they all stood around in DC playing pocket pool because he wasn't in town or on the phone with giving instructions? Somethings are automatic...

and I guess the same group wonders why he didnt fly straight back to DC, right?

I can't fault the guy for his immediate actions on this.

WTF is he gonna do?  Jump up, pull out his executive pen and immediately go into action writing up new legislation that outlaws terrible accidents forever?

He has people that were on this and nobody really knew what was going on at that time.  So he waited, confused like everyone else, for his people to do thier jobs.

If I were pres when it happened I woulda said.. "keep me informed" and finished reading to the kids, pretended all was well and excused myself early..... If I were liberal and the pres I might have broke out into hysterical screaming sobs and shouted to the kids "you are all going to die!"

Bush has kids of his own.. he reacted like an adult IMO.

I think this "october surprise" is gonna be a real dissappointment to the lefties... I think they have about shot their wad.  I was wondering what the last minute lies would be but I don't think they really have anything compelling.

I don't care, your little personal attacks weren't directed at me at me anyway.  I just want to know the rules.
