<<Idiotic to think there is any significance at all to the 7 minutes needed to secure the President's route.>> You can repeat a lie as many times as you want and it's still a lie. They weren't securing his route, he stayed at the school another 25 minutes or so even after he left the classroom after those famous 7 minutes. And he even took time to address an assembly telling students and teachers that there had been an apparent terrorist attack against the U.S. (So much for the not wanting to alarm the children lie). You can read a relatively neutral account of that day here: sptimes.com About 9:30 a.m. - still in the school and still on his original schedule - Bush stood before students, teachers and others and told them the nation had been the target of an "apparent terrorist attack."

re:"Waiting for the correct course of action, idiot" Waiting, Hateman????? Isn't he supposed to lead the correct course of action...isn't he supposed to call in his troops and see that the correct course of action is being taken??? Isn't he supposed to do something instead of sit there cowering??? He didn't even go out to find a TV screen to see what was going on himself....he froze..... What did you do when you heard the news???? Turn off the radio or the TV... hold your ears closed????? His escape route from an elementary school should not have been his first concern, the SS has that responsibility.....he first responsibility was to get himself informed and start coordinating action.... We don't need a cowardly statue for a leader.....
