Cut me a break. Just months into GWB's presidency he was supposed to shut down ALL air travel in the US indefinitely because some analyst added "might fly planes into buildings or things" to his long list of possible ideas that terrorists might someday come up with?

I'm sure that would have gone over really great with the public, the media, Congress, and the entire world.

Has Trump pointed out that a lot of the hijackers had FL driver’s licenses issued during Jeb’s term as governor? I’d say that is a legitimate issue given Jeb’s pushing of Amnesty, and his pro-illegal alien stance.

Way to look presidential, Donald.

The Donald fears nothing, especially not common sense.

Why do folks have such a hard time understanding what Trump is saying?

He was not saying Bush knew we were going to be attacked on 9-11 in the way we were attacked.

He said we knew something LIKE 9-11 was going to happen, that it was inevitable, and that it required our highest level of concern and attention.

This is not a controversial statement. A mildly well informed person knew this was going to happen, just as a mildly well informed person knows NOW that it is going to happen again in some form or another.

Trump is talking about competence. He is talking about anticipating a problem and doing something effective to address it.

He has said it is not possible to know if additional steps (for example, by addressing immigration both legal and illegal) would have prevented 9-11, but that it might have, and more importantly we need to address the problem now (for example, by addressing immigration both legal and illegal).

I think Rush is wrong about this, and I think Trump is a more subtle thinker than he gets credit for. In that respect, he is a lot like Palin.

Here is a sentence from the article:

Trump doubled down on that claim on CNN and claimed they knew the 9/11 attacks were coming and “didn't really work on it”

Why is the claim about knowing the 9/11 attacks were coning not in quotes?

A Birther as well as a Truther. Where does Trump stand on TWA 800?

This is not truther territory. Knowing it’s coming and failing to do what needed to be done to stop it is not the same thing as deliberately standing down. It’s a basic distinction between incompetence and evil.

Jeb, if you have any affection for the GOP or your family, cease this vanity and drop out of the race.
