Quote of the Day
“Had I been reading to children and had my top aide whispered in my ear that America is under attack, I would have told those kids very nicely and politely that the president of the United States has something that he needs to attend to.”
— Sen. John Kerry, quoted by Editor and Publisher, referring to the moment, now immortalized in Michael Moore’s film Fahrenheit 9/11, when Bush refused to leave a group of schoolchildren in Florida for seven minutes after being notified of the second attack on the World Trade Center.
