New Photos Show Bush Administration Reaction to 9/11 Attacks
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/government-elections-politics/new-photos-show-bush-administration-reaction-to-911-attacks/ ^

In never-before-released photographs taken on Sept. 11, 2001, the shock, horror and gravity of the terrorist attacks can be read on the faces of President George Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, their wives Laura and Lynne, National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice, CIA Director George Tenet and other senior Bush and Cheney staffers.

The photos were released in response to a Freedom of Information Act request filed by Colette Neirouz Hanna, coordinating producer for the Kirk Documentary Group, which covered the Bush administration in many films for FRONTLINE, including Bush’s War, Cheney’s Law and The Dark Side.

The photographs, which were taken by the vice president’s staff photographer, show Cheney watching footage of the World Trade Center attack in his office. Other photos show Cheney and other senior staffers meeting in the President’s Emergency Operations Center, or the secure bunker deep underneath the White House.

If it had been Obama sitting there, he would have put his feet up on the desk and smiled.

Those in the room that day say the attacks had a profound effect on Cheney and shaped his entire time in office.

Has Cheney said anything recently about the Iran Nuke Deal? I imagine his words would be choice.

Can’t believe that since Obama took office we have lost EVERYTHING of what Bush and Cheney did to protect us when they were in office.

What? You mean Bush didn’t wipe away “tears” like Clinton did at Ron Brown’s funeral?

Fine. But for what purpose? Seems sinister to me.

Either they wanted to ‘prove’ the Bush people were horrified, or they wanted to show the world they couldn’t care less.

How about some pictures the night Benghazi died?

We still have the Patriot Act, the TSA, the Department of Homeland Security...

So thank them for those wonderful never ever going to go away non-invasive splendors of the US Federal government...

According to Rosy O’Donnell and other loons, Bush and Cheney planned these attacks.

In that case, they’re doing some pretty good acting to look so concerned about what’s happening.

In Saudi Arabia there is a meteorite stuck in one corner of a little building. Every year Muslims come there from all over the world to circle around that meteorite and try to get close enough to kiss it.

When the day comes that that meteorite has been ground to dust, and the little building it is attached to has been ground to dust, and the city where that building is found is ground to dust — then I might begin to consider the about possibly of thinking about maybe forgiving the Muslims for 9/11.

Wherever he was on that day, I can’t imagine him spending it without a smile on his face.

“What? You mean Bush didn’t wipe away “tears” like Clinton did at Ron Brown’s funeral?”

Remember that? He was actually joking with his companion until he saw the camera, and then he wiped away that phony tear. What a reprobate.

Vice President Cheney watches as the first reports of terrorist attacks appear on television. Within minutes he would be frog-marched by Secret Service agents to the basement elevator of the White House.

Panhandler Broadcasting Service, they can't help themselves...

I’m not going to click on an NPR website. They do some fine programming but I suspect this particular exercise is another Bush’s Fault smear. Screw em

Then-”Tenet and FBI Director Robert Mueller watch as President Bush promised the nation that the government would go after “the terrorists who committed these acts and those who harbor them.”

Now- Josh Earnest watches as zero promises the nation that the government would provide money and leeway to Iran to pursue nuclear weapons so they may use wmf against Israel and the United States.....
