AGENT: Excuse me, Sir.
SIR: What is it, Chip?
CHIP: Sir, we've just received word from Washington. About 12 minutes ago a plane crashed into the North Tower of the World Trade Center.
SIR: How big?
CHIP: 767, Sir.
SIR: I got a bad feeling about this one, Chip. If that tower comes down, New York is going to look all... unbalanced. Unbalance makes me queasy, Chip. I don't know if I can be President of a city that makes me queasy.
CHIP: Sir, you're President of the United States, not New York City.
A school bell rings.
BUSH: Oh! That's my cue. How's my tie?
CHIP: Fine, Sir.
BUSH: Okay. Chip? What are those four-legged blanket things that eat thistles? You know, the horn-head things?
CHIP: Uh... goats, Sir?
The Pet Goat, Part 1: Of Goats and Eating Things.

The pet goat
a girl got a pet gōat.
she liked to go running with her pet gōat.
she plāyed with her gōat in her house.
she plāyed with her gōat in her yard.

but the gōat did some things that made the girl's
dad mad. the gōat ate things. he ate cans and he ate canes.
he ate pans and he ate panes. he even ate capes and caps.

one dāy her dad said, "that gōat must go. he ēats too many things."

the girl said, "dad, if you let the gōat stay with us, I will see that he stops ēating all those things."

her dad said, "we will try it."

so the gōat stāyed and the girl made him stop ēating
cans and canes and caps and capes.

This girl is a go-getter! Goat seems like fun too.



This is getting tough. I could sure do with a holiday.

Canes and panes...
...What are these things?


...Are they goat food?





Seems like everything turned out okay for the blanket thing. I need a break.
9:05 a.m.

Bush shrug

"Dammit, Chip!"
BUSH (whispering): Chip! Hold up two for "balanced", one for "unbalanced"!
Chip holds up a closed fist.
BUSH (whispering): Dammit, Chip! Give me something to work with here!
CHIEF OF STAFF (whispering): Sir, a second plane has hit the World Trade Center. America is under attack.
Bush looks confused.
BUSH: ...uh... Chip? Where's Laura?
CHIP: According to the manifest Sir, she's performing a "closing forever" ceremony at the New Orleans Emergency Response Centre.
BUSH: Okay Chip, I want you to call her and tell her "George needs more disposable razor blades." She'll know what to do.

Bush pet goat
but one dāy a robber came to the girl's house. he saw a big red car nēar the house and said "I will stēal that car."

he ran to the car and started to ōpen the dōōr.

the girl and the gōat were plāying in the back yard. they did not see the car robber.

more to come

If you wanna steal stuff, you should only tell the folks on the Supreme Court who're gonna give it to ya.





Wait, more to come? I can't wait 'til later!
Later: our Reluctant Hero goes to spread democracy

BUSH: Laura! They're talkin' about me on the TV again!
LAURA: That's nice, honey.
BUSH: Boy, Chip. That cardboard thing sure taught me a lot about foreign policy.
CHIP: It's called a book, Sir. It was about a goat.

Gee; it's a shame that after you spent all that time typing, that you weren't able to answer the question. :palm:

And what information was available, at EXACTLY THE MOMENT he was told?

It's all in there Ma'am
 
We can certainly cut to the chase on this one. The argument seems to be that Bush wouldn't have done anything consequential even if he had known what was going on. On that, I agree.

So, even though he acted irresponsibly and deplorably as CIC, it didn't really end up making a difference.

I think we all concur on that.

Bin Laden issued a statement, basically thanking Bush for his indecisiveness and saying the extra time he gave them, created the opportunity for them to complete their missions.

But because it seemed to him that occupying himself by talking to the little girl about the goat and its butting was more important than occupying himself with the planes and their butting of the skyscrapers, we were given three times the period required to execute the operations - all praise is due to Allah.

It's becoming apparent that my question is causing some of you a problem in answering, so:
That wasn't what I asked.

And what information was available, at EXACTLY THE MOMENT he was told?

I answered you before. Pretty much all of the information about exactly what was happening that day. Because he knew nothing at EXACTLY THAT MOMENT except that we were under attack.

So, pretty much everything else. A lot of information that was available, that he didn't know.

What would you have done, Mr. Monday Morning QB?

What should he have done that would have changed the situation, at that moment.
 
Thing1 said:
There was a ton of information that he didn't know.

We are talking about the time that this occurred, not an hour later; unless you're trying to say that the minute the first plane hit the tower, EVERYONE knew that ALL the hijackers were suicidal terrorists.
 
Thing1 said:
I already said - fortunately, it turned out that there was nothing more that he could have done that would have significantly altered anything.

You don't seem to be reading my responses.

So this is not about logic; but instead is just about what you FEEL he should have done.
