I saw it too, and had the same reaction. Here was extreme tragedy happening at the moment and Jennings had to work his Red underwear into a knot over where was Bush. As former air defense, I knew where the CIC was and what he was doing. Unlike Clinton, the CIC was in the Command Post, wherever that was and doing his duty as circumstance demanded.
Let's face it, it will be a day of celebration when Jennings is off the air, for good.
Then, on NBC, Matt Lauer asked Tom Brokaw how Bush gets along with the military, and old Tom launched into a tirate about how there had "been some concerns" about Bush when he first took over, seeing as how there was some question about his military service, with people beleiving he tried to avoid the draft and wondering whether he served all his National Guard time.
Unreal.
