And I guess we're supposed to think he was a great leader during that time, when he basically vanished for half the day, then popped before the cameras and said, "Let's get those bad, bad men!" Well, geez, as long as you don't come out before the cameras wearing a jaunty party hat and saying, "Whee, let's do that again!", it's really kind of difficult to screw up leadership during something like that. (Although, you've got to admit, he tried.)
It's hilarious that he thinks it makes him look like a great leader because it hasn't happened since. No, all the terrorists had to do was sit home and do nothing and it made him look lik a paranoid, war-mongering asshat.
Thinking about this for too long turns me into one of those conspiracy nuts who think the whole thing was rigged to provide an excuse for a war/some publicity. Which is scary.
Damn those enticing conspiracy nuts (like Brazil nuts in a way, only less crunchy and harder to swallow).
