Although I'm not sure what his advisor told him.

If it was just a plane hit the wtc, I wouldn't have immediately left. If it was, a second plane hit, he should've bolted.

I try to give people the benefit of the doubt.

He says he told Bush that America was under attack.

Card told this to Bush after the second plane flew into the World Trade Center towers. Bush sat in the classroom, blank-eyed for another 20 minutes, then bravely skedaddled to Air Force One and flew to Louisiana. During his time there, all planes were called out of the sky. Wild rumors persisted that a hijacked plane might be flown into the President's plane, even though all aircraft were on the ground. Bush then courageously flew to Nebraska to hide out for most of the rest of the day while people were dying in New York.

Bush gets the benefit of no doubt from me.

Then I cleaned out the fridge

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! It's OK if you're Reagan or Bush - and you'd never know Belgium is not an American state

and imagine if President Obama then just sat there in a classroom while we were under attack.

Does anyone really think the GOP and the media would have just said, "We all need to come together"?

No, there would have been an outcry for IMPEACHMENT.

THey would have lynched him
