And please don't come with the 9/11 BS...

A major event and the response is "BS?"

Definitely a major event. 

But in what way was 9/11 a positive accomplishment of Bush? 

US gets attack; 1,000s die... and Heckav' job Bushie???

Yes, correct. Bush isn't a good president because he said some nice words and quoted the bible after 9/11.

Ok, you knew I meant the other responses to the attacks.

Not necessarily but even so, that doesn't make it something that is worthy of approval?

The response to 9/11. You knew what I meant.

How this is better than Obama is mind boggling.  
But then again the American people re-lected this asshat.

Yes, he should have got up, ran out of the room and did...eh...did what exactly during those seven minutes? What would have happened differently?

He should have gotten up and acted like President.  You are claiming his response to 9/11 was so great.  Well there it was -- his response to an attack on this country is to just sit there.

Can you seriously tell me you dont get angry watching that video?  American are dying in a terrorist attack and our president spends his time sitting there looking like the class idiot and you just think how wonderful he is???

On the other hand, perhaps you have a point -- our current condition would have been much better if he had just continued to sit there for the next 8 years.  So maybe getting up, late as it was, was the problem.

Trivial matters?  The event of 9/11 is now to you a trivial matter.  Fascinating.

Who said it would have stopped them from dying?

So we have learned that in your world view, a  president should prioritize ready with elementary school kids over national security.  Got it.  Guess that's why I'm not a republican.

That is the weakest most pathetic excuse ever thought up.

As far as I am aware, immediately after he was briefed.

No, making an issue out of his seven minutes of reading a book is trivial. Don't bother responding if you're going to debate like a child.

I am not debating like a child.  These are the seven minutes after planes struck the world trade center and before one had struck the Pentagon.  I don't consider what the President, any President, was doing during an attack on the country to be trivial.

There was still hijacked planes in the air.  I think the President has a constitutional job to do as commander in chief and reading kids books is not it.  You seems to want to know what specific decisions he should have made.  I don't know.  Doesn't matter.  What matters is that he make decisions in a time of crisis.  He didn't.  Crisis reveals character and his was shown to be lacking.

Bullsh**t.  Its just a lame attempt to excuse his inaction.
