    Come on Cello,what would you have had him do?Scream and dive under the podium?Say "Excuse me kids but our nation is under attack,I've gotta run"?He handled it well.

    As to warnings or threats,they get those everyday.Our whole country would be shut down constantly if we hid from every single one.That would weaken our nation as much as an attack.

    Guess I should expect this reaction here,though.Obviously,some folks are still carrying around the fear and mistrust that the watchtower bred in us.

    Nuff Said,

    I'm the apostate your mama...er,uh... watchtower...warned you about!

    It seems to me like every single time something newsworthy happens, conspiracy theorist come out of the woodwork. 9/11 was the most awful thing that I can remember happening. I think Bush responded the best way anyone political leader could have. This media frenzy seems like nothing more than a political soapbox for the upcoming primaries.

    The Bush haters will always hate Bush, just as the Clinton haters will always hate Clinton. Me? I hate everybody!

    This is all political in an election year. Nothing more, nothing less.

    If Bush had deported all illegal Arab aliens and Arab students as a result of his August briefings, the liberals would have gone ape shit.
    Frankly, I think any illegal alien should be deported, Arab or otherwise.

    WASHINGTON (AP) - Exactly two years before the Sept. 11 attacks, a federal report warned the executive branch that Osama bin Laden (news - web sites)'s terrorists might hijack an airliner and dive bomb it into the Pentagon (news - web sites) or other government building.
