It was great, he pissed the republicans off so bad that they left the room as we chanted the "na na na na goodbye" song. I dont think I've ever seen someone who get a crowd pumped like he did

Michael Moore is a pansy.
What he should have showed in Fahrenheit 911 is the actual death toll rising while Bush was reading to the kids.

Yeah because what Bush should have done was fly around the Earth backwards, causing time to reverse. He could then fly to New York and stop the planes from hitting the towers.

I love this book. I especially love the fact that it's sitting on the shelf at work and nobody is buying it, while Moore continues to have six books and two DVDs actually selling in our store, including two books still on the bestseller list at the same time... :thumbs:

You know, here is the timeline (http://www.unansweredquestions.org/timeline/timeline_bush.html) of the President's activities on the morning of 9/11. You be the judge.
On a personal level, I think he showed remarkable restraint in an environment that could have turned into chaos if he said anything. The small 2nd grade classroom was filled with 16 students, 150 reporters and dozens of school and White House officials. If he had abruptly got up to leave, the room would have descended into a media circus.
That said, there were NUMEROUS failures on the part of the Administration that morning. These failures range from frequent communication outages to confusion over who was in charge in Washington. The FAA was completely oblivious to the threat posed by Flight 93. The audio tapes of the teleconferences that morning between the FAA, air traffic control and NORAD made it seem like the FAA people were like deers caught in the headlights. They were in complete disbelief that after they thought all planes were grounded there was still 4 planes not accounted for (one of which was making a beeline for the White House.)
Worst of all Dick Cheney attempted a cheap and dirty power grab by arguing with the President over returning to DC. He eventually convinced Bush and the Secret Service to take AF1 to Offutt AFB, HQ for NORAD. Colin Powell was stuck on a 10-hour flight back from Peru. With the #1 and the #3 men in the adminstration up in the air, Cheney orders fighters to shoot down Flight 93 if necessary, a power legally reserved only to the President.

That's because he was basically out of touch with his National Security and military advisors most of the time, and his VP was busy doing a power grab.
He did the best thing he could do.....keep his mouth shut until one of his puppeteers could tell him what to say.

Yeah, it WAS a major screw up. But, we are talking about 18 minutes here. What, exactly, could have been done in 18 minutes that would have changed anything? Even if, as you say, the NSA, etc, was NOT "out of order"?

Actually, if you check the timeline (http://www.unansweredquestions.org/timeline/timeline_bush.html) it was about 10 minutes to be exact.
What can happen in 10 minutes?
“An F-15 departing from Otis can reach New York City in 10 to 12 minutes, according to an Otis spokeswoman."
F-16s could have also reached DC within 10 minutes, but that never happened:
"NORAD orders three F-16 fighters scrambled from Langley Air Force Base in Virginia to intercept Flight 77. Langley is 129 miles from Washington. Ready aircraft at Andrews Air Force Base, 15 miles away, are not scrambled."
Why did this not happen? Because there was a constant 30-45 minute delay in the information being relay from the FAA to NORAD.
However, the President was getting information in real time via CNN (http://www.cooperativeresearch.org/timeline/images/bush_crash_tv.jpg). There are fighter squadrons at the ready throughout the country that he could have scrambled on a moment's notice.

There are varying degrees of "ready" when dealing with launching fighter aircraft. You could be talking about a ready alert that starts planes moving the second the order is given as the pilots are already waiting in the aircraft or any other combination of strip alerts ranging from 5 to 30 minutes. I don't know the alert status of aircraft stationed at bases capable of defending our major cities and capitol, but I doubt a plane could have got off the ground within 15 minutes of the scramble order. The situation is likely different now.
You overestimate the readiness of NORAD air defense squadrons in the post-Cold War world. On September 10, 2001, who would those squadrons have been guarding against?
