maybe Secret Service didn't know what they were doing doesn't particularly sound like anybody else knew what they were doing, I'm sure you love hearing that, but in the real world things don't always work out so perfect like I said. Guess we'll just have to wait for GWB's book to come out when someone writes it for him too. I think riding a horse to NY would have been way cool, that way he could have met Guiliani who I don't think hung out for 7 minutes waiting to be told what to do. Anyway this is getting a bit old, you can have the last word. I wouldn't mind a cowboy for president, long as he knew how to gamble properly and how to shoot straight.

Agree with that mike. All one has to do is review the actual, on the spot, films broadcast of that terrible day. The entire nation didn't know for hours, even with all the stations and cables on the story, what was happening.

7 minutes were most probably recommended by the Secret Service, while their plans were put together to get him out of there and on board AF One, where the communications are top of the line.

Just think, he couldn't even rush out of the room, and grab the nearest TV set....No one knew what had hit us.....and what would try to decapitate our Government.
