    Every time I watch these videos and relive 9/11 I find myself getting so pissed off and mad. It feels like it was just yesterday and the range of emotions I feel watching these videos never changes no matter how many years go by.

    I liked it, but there were so many more items I would have loved for him to go in depth about, but it would probably take 12 hours worth of air time to really get into a lot of detail.

    extremely underwhelming. I was expecting at least an apology to the American people for the horrible job he did as president. Oh well.

    guess i really didnt expect much.

    i just wasnt that surprised to learn that he was sad, angry and determined. also that while he flew around to a bunch of spots, he wanted to get back to washington.

    all it basically ended up to be was him giving a narrative of his day.

    for those who didnt catch it there is a link. Im watching it right now even tho Im having trouble keeping my dinner down.

    looks like hes about to bust out laughing the whole time. and doesnt an interview usually involve somebody asking questions? Because Id like to start with 1. How much money did your family make resulting from the events of 911?

    I guess Ill keep watching these lies

    There is not one thing you ever post that I agree with. Just wanted you to know that. On a side note the giants were a fluke and they suck

    Exactly 1.6 Trillion actually. The bush family had bought credit defualt swaps against profit made made for daily rent on the WTC in the month of september. The SEC also stated they they had 4 billons shares of the famous double ultra short in air conditioning futures in the south tower, bought far out of the money in may 2006 for the dates of 9-11 to 9-26 2011 at the WTC. pure profit.

    loved it. I could sit and listen to any Potus talk about their thought process and the details of their day during an event for hours and hours.

    i really wonder how many presidents would have gone back to the white house on the night of 9/11 just to give the american people the feeling that he was in charge...no matter what you say about him he was a great leader immediately following 9/11

    I'm a hardcore liberal and I started to warm up to Bush late in his term. Bush got a lot of unjust crap. It's a lot like Clinton and Obama have gotten. Politics is nasty business in this country.

    In the documentary, Bush talks about how he landed in Barksdale Air Force Base hours after the planes hit the WTC. He says, "We landed in Barskdale and it was surreal... And we got in a vehicle, and the kid driving the thing is going, it felt like 100 miles an hour. I mean, we're bouncing along, charging along. Finally, I told the guys, I said, "Slow down, Al-Qaeda's not here."

    Did Bush really have information that Al-Qaeda was behind the attacks this fast?

    think the idea of al-qaeda attacking tall buildings with planes was around before 9/11 iirc.

    It was only hours after the shit started the media was assuming Al-qaeda and Osama Bin Laden were behind it. I remember thinking "who the fuck is this Osama guy they keep talking about?"

    Safe to assume the president had full knowledge of a major terrorist organization prior to 9/11.

    And why we are on the subject...I fucking HATE the fact it was on 9/11. If it was on 9/12/01, people wouldn't refer to it as 9-12. Pearl harbor isn't referred to as 12/7. Go ask someone "remember 12/7?" They are going to be like "wtf is 12/7?". Ask the same person "Remember 9/11?" and they are like "Duh...how can I forget?" It's not like terrorists really put thought into the date...like it had any significance at all. They weren't sitting around going "Lets do it on 9-11, so people can associate it with the emergency call number". Its so tilting. I especially hated when they made Tshirts with a 9 in front of the WTC towers so it looked like 9-11. And the way they heighten security around the "anniversary date" of the attack...like terrorists give a shit about dates. If anything they might want to retaliate on the date of Bin Ladens death or something. Fuck I hate people

    bush even makes reference to this as its the last thing he says : "Eventually September the 11th will be, ya know, a date on the calendar, it'll be like Pearl Harbor Day...For those of us who lived through it, it will be a day we will never forget"
