Bush lies....troops die! Clinton only lied about sex, which is a personal issue. Does the Shrub even know how to tell the truth?

Sorry, multiple investigations have put paid to that myth.
The 'Bush Lied' folks can't be taken seriously

<<It's well documented that the President remained in the classroom for 7 minutes after being told of the second plane hitting the World Trade Center.>>
And what did the intellectual and heroic Mr. Kerry do?
'Here's what he told Larry King: "...And as I came in , Barbara Boxer and Harry Reid were standing there, and we watched the second plane come in to the building. And we shortly thereafter sat down at the table and then we just realized nobody could think, and then boom, right behind us, we saw the cloud of explosion at the Pentagon..."
Kudos to Red State for finding that. And for noting: "It should be noted that the second plane hit the World Trade Center at 9:03 a.m., and the plane hit the Pentagon at 9:43 a.m. By Kerry's own words, he and his fellow senators sat there for forty minutes, realizing 'nobody could think.'"'

The fact that Kerry and some other Senator's gathered around the TV for fourty minutes has absolutely no bearing on the President and his weird non-action on 9/11. If you think it does, you're desperate for dirt.
If you read further in the Larry King transcript, there's an piece that's truly interesting. Both Kerry and Bush are pilots, and yet they had opposite gut instincts upon learning that a plane had flown into the World Trade Center. Despite having read intelligence reports warning of the possibility of terrorist hijackings in the US, President Bush's reaction was "Hey, that's one bad pilot." Here's Kerry's reaction, as told to Larry King:
"KERRY: I knew instantaneously...
KING: Clinton said he though bin Laden.
KERRY: I knew instantaneously with the first. I'm a pilot, and I looked at the weather, and it's what we call in pilot lingo CAVU, ceiling and visibility unlimited. And I knew that that plane did not fly into that building accidentally, as people were speculating. It just doesn't happen, could not, under those circumstances. So I knew it was deliberate, whether it was suicide, whether it was something -- I couldn't tell. When the second plane hit, it was obvious to the world."

truemobile brought this up this morning, and I replied to him as well:

Oh please, the point isn't that Kerry didn't have anything better to do than sit like a lump in front of a tv for 40 minutes (and if he was so extraordinarily prescient he might have considered getting in touch with capital police and finding out about their alert level and discussing evacuations since he is such a natural born leader, after all).
The point is that for 40 minutes he was dumbstruck.
