The Pet Goat and 9/11

This is a surprisingly positive take on Bush's reaction upon hearing about the terrorist attacks of 9/11 while he was in on the reading of The Pet Goat to 7-year-olds.  The kids in that classroom are now 17 years old and able to better understand world because of their experience.

Interesting, I like the fact that the kids seem to have the same take as me as to why Bush didn't bail immediately after he heard the news.  I also like that the story essentially calls Michael Moore a turd, a judgment I heartily concur with.
