I've studied that video of President Bush sitting in the class room as he got word of
the ISLAMIC attack on the United States. I've looked at his initial facial expressions, eye movements, hand gestures, and body language and honestly I couldn't connect with how Dubya just sat there, seemingly doing nothing.
That is until my wife, who just this week saw the replay as Bush was being attacked by J-FK for not responding in a presidential or responsible manner. Her immediate reaction - well, it stunned me.
She saw it, and upon looking at George Bush's face and eyes, instantly said of his reaction:
"He's praying . . George Bush immediately started PRAYING!"

Wouldn't the President, now knowing the situation being different from what he would have done following the classroom visit, have to wait for the Secret Service, his staff and the rest of the crew on AF-1 et. al. to make a plan and strategy? Seems to me, that instead of panic, it's more like deliberate, and controlled response once the plan was ready and the engines spooled up (so to speak).So, while waiting in a crisis, prayer is always the way to "get knowledge and wisdom" from where the best wisdom comes from. "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him." James 1:5. The President knows exactly who to contact and when and what about.
