Patricia, You are correct...from Reuters:

Sunday September 16 11:15 PM ET
Cheney Recalls 'Horrendous' Choice on Attack Day

By Randall Mikkelsen

A 'HORRENDOUS DECISION'
****
But Cheney said the hardest choice was the evidently unprecedented decision to shoot down, if necessary, a commercial aircraft within the United States -- a decision he said Bush made on Cheney's recommendation. All four hijacked planes crashed before the order could be executed.

Also, the fact that Bush did not quickly return to Washington was excused by a lie that the Air Force One was targeted.

What reason in the world would the President have for rushing back to Washington with planes dropping out of the sky and ground security unsure of where the next attack was coming from? Doesn't Air force One have state of the art communication equipment to keep in contact with the capital? Secondly, how do you know what was targeted and what wasn't because the media sure doesn't, I don't think anyone does except the terrorists.

NM Just curious.

You disgust me as much as your other nitwit bleeding hearts. The fact that you have such a pompous, condescending, and patronizing attitude toward your immigrant friends surprises me that you have any.

First of all, my wife is Chinese, from China, educated, she came here 8 years ago. She had no reason to "FLEE" as you put it, her communist regime. Nor has anyone who came here 7 years ago. I've visited the much of China, and my in-laws have visited here, as well as my brother in law and his wife.

Second of all, you have absolutely no knowledge AT ALL of what was unfolding in the capitol that morning, with respect to the white house, and you shouldn't shoot your mouth off about what you portend to know.

And WELL,,, since you have so much experience with Iranian and Saudi men, then clearly you must understand the mind of the terrorist. I volunteer you for the FBI. What a value you will be! You should call them right away!!!!
