GWB ran away and hid? I guess I missed that part. May I now shout "Bullshit!"?

"GWB ran away and hid?"

Oh, crap. I sure remember Dan Rather initially reporting something like that. He speculated on the reasons Bush might not have headed straight back to Washington when he learned of the attacks. I don't recall exactly what he said, but it was dripping with his suspicion of the President's motives and an insinuation of cowardice. Gee, Dan and cLOONEY, maybe someone felt it was important to protect the life of our President in a time of national crisis. I guess it didn't occur to this pair of dungwads that things would have been even more chaotic (duh) if Bush had been harmed. Not that they would have minded. "No matter how you feel about him, he's still the President." Thanks for the tip, Dan.

That interpretation came directly from Petah Jennings. It was he who said that our President was running away and hiding just because the Secret Service would not tell ABC where the President was. Of course, it came out later that the decision for Bush to stay in the air - aboard Air Force One - was because of the Secret Service and the fact that an attack had been issued against the aircraft - which the SS wanted to keep moving.

And ... did Petah apologize ... guess not!
