    I think he handles it about as well as you can expect someone to react.
    He was in a room full of people with cameras rolling.
    Yet he still kept his composure when given the worst news any president since Roosevelt has ever received.

    I'm not a Bush supporter.
    But at the same time, I'm not going to use a one sided film to formulate that opinion, or use it to make my points.

    did you eat paint chips as a child?
    Watch it all you want. Nothing wrong with watching it.
    But taking it as 100% historical fact is ignorant at best.

    You say that the footage of Bush's response was historical fact, and then you say it wasn't historic fact? Which is it?

    Sure that footage happened. Never deinied that particular footage.
    Can you now provide us some footage of what took place behind closed doors so we can get the entire story?


    What I did say is that the movie as a whole should not be taken as historical fact.
    Please take notice of part that is bold and in red. Apparently you have skimmed right past that point in everybone's post thus far.

    If your entire impression of Bush is based solely upon this reaction, then are the most simple minded individual I have ever had a conversation with.

    Here is my original statement that you are replying to:

    I don't think one of Bush's strengths was the whole Al Qaeda thing. I felt that well before Richard Clarke, the 9/11 commision, and the Michael Moore movie all cast doubt on how Bush handled that.

    kinda sucks when someone just completely ignores/misses the original point doesn't it?

    I'm not even participating in this discussion, yet I have this uncontrollable urge to bang my head against concrete.

    It's not that hard to think of something positive Bush did, is it?

    Right, and the original point is this:

    anybody care to point out any positive things about GW Bush's presidency that you will always remember fondly?

    Can you name anything positive that Bush did as president?
