finishing up our assigned blog discussion and no new assigned blog this week and we are going to just finish a bunch of stuff up today and work on Europe map and also going to just do some forum posts and blogs while we are waiting for people to take their map tests who were gone the other day.
1. What was President Bush doing when he heard of the attacks? he was doing his morining run and then he was at a school in Florida listening to the teacher teach a lesson during reading class
2. According to President Bush, what is the first thing a leader needs to do for the country in times of crisis? Project calm, if your not calm others wont be calm.
3. Why did the Secret Service refuse to allow President Bush to go back to Washington D.C. right away? they felt it would be not right to head back into a city that has been attacked. if they would have killed the president then they would have had a joyful time.
4. What did the US government/military do to to ensure another attack did not occur? they forced every airplane to land because the terrorists were using commercial airplanes, if planes dont respond then they will be shot down
5. Why was President Bush sent to Offutt Air Force Base in Omaha? they figured it was the safest place to be. it had a secure bunker and good communication systems
6. Why did President Bush eventually insist on going back to Washington D.C. later that day against the will of the Secret Service? he didnt wanna give the commands from a bunker in the heartland, he thought if he stayed there then the terrorists would think they would have won
7. What was the point of President Bush's message to the nation on the evening of 9-11?
things were going to be ok and the people wanted to know that they were going to go get the people who did this to them. We were going to pass the test
8. Why did President Bush decide not to blame the CIA/FBI for not doing their job? because they had a bigger job to do, they just needed to move forward
9. How did President Bush feel when he heard that Osama bin Laden had been killed? gratitude and a sense of close.
