<<He ran to Airforce One and flew around for hours in "unsafe" skies..>> He "fled" is more appropriate. The country didn't see him till about 8 PM. He didn't showup in DC for about 36 hours. Some BRAVE and RESOLUTE President he has been and is! About 10 AM on September 11 was the time to show REAL leadership - not 4 days later with the bullhorn in the ruins of WTC. - not 9 days later with a prepared speech read on the teleprompter in joint session of the Congress. - not 7 weeks later by bombing Afganistan Even Clinton would have showed up in DC immediately! That is what I call being resolute.

Unprotected skies? What freakin planet you from? Air force one is protected by the greatest Air force in the world, bar none. Another plane would not have gotten within miles of AF One. Your expectations of what a President should have done when we were being attacked is ridiculous. Should he have flown right up to NYC and done......what? What could he have done? You tell me, what could he have done right away, 7 minutes earlier that would have made one iota of difference in the way things turned out. Some of the points you people think are significant are worthless. I get so tired of hearing pure BS criticism with not one offer of a solution, just complaints. You really should shut your mouth until you have a solution or an alternate idea for something you are complaining about. Otherwise you are just a noisy clanging bell.
