C'mon Thom you can say it. Just spit it out: Bush did the right thing. That can't be that hard to say. The minutes he took to finish the book and not alarm the kids made NO difference in what happened that day or our response to it. This imaginary choice you suggest it specious.

And Bush defenders always seem to frame it that way. There were other options to avoid scaring the kids. But you cannot turn back time and there are far worse choices he could have made and the one he did opt for is understandable.
