Thank you...

I had not previously read/seen/heard this information.

I appreciate your bringing it to my attention.

However, I would question the state of someone who believes the

President
was told that "the country was under attack".

You have no idea what Bush was told...


But the guy who told him, Andrew Card, should know what he was told.
His recollection was (SF Chronicle, 9/11/02):

"So I was very uncomfortable about interrupting the president during one
of his events ... so I wanted to think, how can I convey to the
president the situation? And I made a conscious decision to state the
facts and to offer editorial comment. And the facts, as I knew them,
were -- since he knew about the first plane, I said, 'a second plane hit
the second tower.' Those were the facts. And the editorial comment was,
'America is under attack.'"

Obviously you don't have very young children...


What in the hell does THAT have to do with anything???


I'm sorry, I didn't realize you were so far out of the loop. I thought

it
was common knowledge that Bush was reading to some very young children

in
front of a bunch of television cameras.


So???

He'd just been told that the country was UNDER ATTACK! What is wrong

with

you?
