This was a new interview, and it was different because the only person talking was Bush....no media....he did all of the commentary himself for 1 hour, along with some pictures that we have never seen, talking about everything that was going through his mind from moment to moment.

It gives you a different perspective of what the President goes through, the decisions that have to be made....and in this case, right or wrong, without hesitation.

You could tell he was quite emotional from time to time and he was very honest, citing some moments when he admitted that he didn't know what to do...but was determined not to panic and to convey a sense of calm amidst the confusion.

Whether you're a Dem or a Pub, if you get a chance, check it out. I'm sure they'll air it again.


I remember 9/11 very well. Durring the time right after 9/11 it was 4 days before any official comment was made by the president. A lot of people were questioning where is the president?

Cheney has revield he was in a bunker after the attacks for several days. Bush was under protection as well.

When we had a near neuclear meltdown at Three Mile Island, Jimmy Carter went inside the reactor durring the crisis to get a first hand view and assessment of the condition of the reactor.

George Bush does not get any kudos from me for his actions from 9/11 to 9/15. He took strong action afterwards but I still think he should have at least made a speech to the country.

Sorry to bring this up but this is what happened on 9/11 and at Three Mile Island.
