Honestly, this has been the most severe point of contention in this thread - and the reality is that Bush, to my mind, did the best he could in the situation. Emergency management was on the scene, and honestly he can't go and field-general the emergency efforts. Sure, he looked like a goon sitting there struggling with the book, but I don't see that he had a choice. What would you have had him do? And how exactly would this have helped alleviate the tragedy?
Y'all know I am not one to defend Bush, as I think my 4-year old nephew is a better orator...but I agree with his decision to stay there and read. If he had left right in the beginning of the book, it would have scared the kids. The school, which had been prepared for his arrival and filled with Secret Service agents, was probably one of the safest places he could be at that moment.

Actually, not true. Every president has had, like, a made for TV movie with actors and speculation, but no other president (that I know of) has had REAL events, clipped together.

So instead of watching the lies of Michael Moore and being uneducated and ignorant and acting like it's the best thing ever, you can now watch go to http://www.fahrenhype911.com/ and order your copy of this movie.

Not defending either movie, but have you seen either one? Just curious.

I saw Farenheith 9/11 on bootleg. Not one penny went to the director. I have not seen Farenhype but I also know all the thing it could point out as wrong.

But if your intention was to try and make me seem as if I was judging something without experience it, I do encourage you to jab a knife through your hand because really you can't say you don't like it unless you try it.
