Oh, that is BS, John. I am surprised you got sucked in by it. All Bush knew was that a plane of some size had hit the trade towers.

Actually, you're wrong, Bill. I won't say, as usual. He sat there for 7 minutes after Andy Card told him the second plane hit the WTC and said something to the effect, we are under attack.

Two planes had struck the WTC and Bush doesn't think it might be time to get to some serious communication capabilities to make certain interceptor planes are in the air to shoot down other hijacked planes; or to ground all flights; or whatever. 7 minutes. A very long time.
