I remember libs bashing him because he was calm in front of the kids.

The high water mark of his administration followed within the next few weeks. It was downhill from there.

It was a shinning example of the religion of peace.

One might say George continues to capitalize off of this tragedy. He shows up every year in a new documentary or news special, paints pictures of veterans from the wars he started and I’m sure generates outrageous speaking fees talking about his “leadership” experiences on 9/11. Maybe 20 years on, one of these documentaries could take him to task as to why this happened on his watch?

Hey GWB, don’t you and Hunter have to be in art class somewhere?

Ahead of the 20-year anniversary of 9/11

A Sad anniversary thanks to Biden's botched w/d. I suppose we can all be reminded that the Islamic terrorists are still gunning for us and always will. Oh, and maybe it's not a good idea to provide them with 85 billion in technology and weaponry.

I thought it was calm under fire at the time, now I think it was deer in the headlights.

I voted for this guy twice (and Poppy twice, as well), and 43 did some good things on taxes. But the proof of the pudding is in the eating, and he was a foreign and domestic policy disaster who set the stage for Obama-Biden and the national suicide that the left would ultimately implement. Stay out of the Bushes.

Bush did a lot right in the immediate aftermath off the attacks. Once his team had time to settle down and do some planning, things went in a different direction.

I used to think highly of GWB. No more.

He is a deep state operative, a bald faced lying actor, able to keep a straight face lying. He knew about 911 beforehand. The twin towers were a decoy... the target was building 7. Donald Rumsfeld announced on 9/10 $2.3T was missing. In the basement of building 7 were untold stores of physical gold. I bet it had NONE on 9/12.

Sound nutz? I challenge you to view the video of the 2nd grade classroom lesson being taught while he sat there. It was a reading lesson, sounding out words.

“His reaction was famously captured on camera during a previously scheduled school trip.”

I was unimpressed. He could have simply said to the kids, “Excuse me.” and got up and quietly left to deal with the nation’s security.

Instead he put the nation’s security behind the precious feelings of a room full of grade school kids and reporters (pardon the redundancy).

Granted, it was a moment’s hesitation on his part but all the same if you’re CiC you don’t get the privilege of hesitation.

[4yearlurker]

I absolutely remember this. Bush said he didn't want to scare the school kids at the time. Why is this a big deal?

[The Truth Will Make You Free]

Bush’s biggest unforgivable lie “Islam is religion of peace.” Right there we should have recognized him as DS.

[Wilderness Conservative]

After seeing his buddy Dick with his feet on the desk watching the smoking towers on TV I wonder if Ws look of aghast was rehearsed.

[GOP Poet]

I remember as well. Always difficult to watch this footage and people talking about it. Still many tears.

[TiGuy22]

Q’s think he was in on it….

[Vinnie]

National Geographic Channel is running a multi-hour documentary on 9/11 seen through the eyes of people that lived through it.
Videos I’ve never seen before.
Should be ‘must see’ for everyone younger than 25.

[DouglasKC]

Exactly. The left mercilessly mocked him. Now that he no longer has to get votes we’re seeing Bush true ideology and of course the left loves him. He was a punching bag for the left and never refuted their arguments against anything conservative. All he needed were votes.
