    Kindof a small contradiction that I caught: Bush mentioned that his driver (after landing in Louisiana) was driving super fast, and Bush said something like "slow down, Al Qaeda is not here." Later, he said when he briefed with intelligence, that was the first time he heard Al Qaeda may have been responsible. Not trying to dig anymore than that, just saying I found that contradiction interesting.

    It could be those weren't his exact words. I have trouble remembering exact words I spoke 10 years ago. Maybe he said "terrorists" and in the interview he said Al-Qaeda. I wouldn't look too deep into that.

    I'd look more into the missile that hit the Pentagon.

How he said as soon as he got word that the nation was under attack, he looked up and saw the press corps starting to get the news on their cell phones. He said the absolute last thing he could do at that point after seeing that, was jump up and run out of the room casuing panic.
    But he really meant that he couldn't wait to find out what happened to the little goats.:p

    Nothing specific, just in general. A quick Google search on "Building 7" will bring up a bunch of conspiracy theory links about how America bombed/demoed the building ourselves.

    Just ridiculous.

    Same here. It makes sense.
    I also liked the part where he wanted to head back to DC and deliver a statement there instead of a bunker at STRATCOM. He said he didn't want to give al Qaeda the psych edge by giving an address from a bunker.
