What was bush reading to the kids?
What story was bush reading to the school kids during the 9/11 attacks. I thought I heard something about a goat.

Did anyone think that maybe he didn't want to break away because he was so engrossed in it?

2. If memory serves, it was Bush's fave-rave book....

... "The Very Hungry Caterpillar."



Not sure if this is the 9/11 book, but it's a favorite of his.

Chimpy McFlightSuit has been quoted as saying it's his favorite book from childhood. Too bad it came out long after he'd graduated from Yale. }(

3. I'm not flaming or anything, but that isn't very funny.

That moment (if you count 15 minutes as a moment) is the single greatest embarrassment to the office of the Presidency. He could have soiled himself (hmm...maybe he did) and would have been no less appalling.

When I sat through the whole video of the classroom photo-op, I was physically angry. ____________________. He didn't even react. It was clear to me at that point that this "man" was not, is not a President. No amount of war-grooming will make him anything but a fortunate son.

edit: for my safety

5. Thanks.
The original messages are probably all saved, so it doesn't really matter much, right?
