Former Sarasota, Florida, second grade student Krystal Davis remembers a wave of confusion washing over her and her classmates on the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, after a suited man whispered into the ear of the president of the United States, who was seated just in front of the students.
Then-President George W. Bush was visiting Emma E. Booker Elementary School and had been listening intently to the children in Mrs. Sandra Daniels' second-grade class flexing their reading skills, when the look of admiration on his face suddenly gave way to an expression of concern.
Chief of Staff Andrew Card had just relayed to Bush that a second plane had crashed into the World Trade Center in New York City. "America is under attack," he later recalled whispering to the president.

Interesting that ABC would run a story sympathetic to a Republican president.
Oh, wait. The president is that piece of trash George W. Bush. Bush of course completely botched our response to 9/11. Islam is now stronger than it was before the attack.
But Bush is good pals with the slimy Obamas. So I guess ABC is okay with him.
Yeah. The media is fine with Traitor Bush now. Just like they were with John McCain.
(Bush of course completely botched our response to 9/11)
Yep
The day will come when the Leftwing media will praise Trump as one of the great presidents. It will take a few decades, but they will love Trump and contrast him with whatever Republican is in ascendance in 2050 — that guy is a Nazi!! What happened to the old Republican Party? Remember when the GOP was led by a statesman like Trump and not some Nazi like that 2050 guy?
They did it with Reagan and Bush.
