normalnoises Posted November 22 Report Share Posted November 22 http://whatreallyhappened.com/bushlie.htmlhttp://whatreallyhappened.com/bushbook.rmYou need real player. http://www.real.comBUSH CAUGHT IN A LIE ABOUT WTC ATTACKSAt http://www.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0112/04/se.04.html is a transcript of President Bush's comments regarding the day of the attacks on the World Trade Towers. Towards the bottom of the transcript is the following quote. (Note: Some readers are reporting that the version of the CNN transcriopt they see in some parts of the country has been edited to remove the following comment. George Orwell would be proud!) QUESTION: One thing, Mr. President, is that you have no idea how much you've done for this country, and another thing is that how did you feel when you heard about the terrorist attack? BUSH: Well... (APPLAUSE) Thank you, Jordan (ph). Well, Jordan (ph), you're not going to believe what state I was in when I heard about the terrorist attack. I was in Florida. And my chief of staff, Andy Card -- actually I was in a classroom talking about a reading program that works. And I was sitting outside the classroom waiting to go in, and I saw an airplane hit the tower -- the TV was obviously on, and I use to fly myself, and I said, "There's one terrible pilot." And I said, "It must have been a horrible accident." But I was whisked off there -- I didn't have much time to think about it, and I was sitting in the classroom, and Andy Card, my chief who was sitting over here walked in and said, "A second plane has hit the tower. America's under attack." There is a problem with the above statement. There was no live video coverage of the first plane hitting the tower. There couldn't be. Video of that first plane hitting the tower did not surface until AFTER the second plane had hit. Bush is lying through his teeth here. Even though Bush is not a very good pilot (he was taken off of flight status for failure to take a medical exam which included a drug test), it would be silly to assume that a passenger jet hitting the WTC in clear weather was pilot error. The only other known impact between an aircraft and a New York skyscraper was when a military airplane crashed into the Empire State Building in a heavy fog. Because of that incident, there are mandatory altitude minimums over the island. If Bush really did see an airplane on TV hitting the World Trade Towers, then he saw that the aircraft was under control at the time. And, it must be remembered that even after andy informed Bush of the second impact, and by his own admission Bush knew we were being attacked, he continued to read to the classroom full of children. Just think about that for a while. Confirmation of Bush's comments is also athttp://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2001/12/20011204-17.html and http://www.guardian.co.uk/september11/story/0,11209,612354,00.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nycmuzik Posted November 22 Report Share Posted November 22 This is just outrageous.....It just goes to show what complete bullshit this gov't and war on terrorism is....pfffft....Now bare with me for a minute here but could it have been possible, and I'm going out on a limb when I say this...Maybe he didnt explain himself correctly....He probably saw the first tower burning and heard the news reports that a plane hit it.....Isnt that wild.....Looks like some kind of huge gov't conspiracy to me....

While I do believe that the gov't is not telling us alot of things, I dont see how someone could get that from this article.....And like Matas said, its national security....The general public doesnt need to know everything....Lets remember that there are terrorists in this country and they see and hear the same things we do....
