6. I don't remember him cutting it short
Edited on Fri Apr-02-04 11:59 AM by rmpalmer
he may have by a day or two but it would've been because they were getting a bit of heat over the length of it. It I believe was close to or a record for length for a President.

I then remember he was no sooner back than he headed to Camp David for a long Labor Day weekend. So he was barely back to work when 9-11 happened.

And I'd bet much of the staff was on vacation during the same time as Chimpy. Cheney was off in Wyoming I seem to remember.

Imagine if Chimpy had come back to DC and said there was some security risk that forced them to call emergency meetings. Maybe, just maybe the hijackers might've aborted their plans if they thought there was heightened security. From what I've been reading from Clarke these guys could be spooked somewhat easily.

Or just maybe if Bushies people had been meeting every day as Clinton's people did at end of 99 they'd have shook some sparrows from the trees.
