A Ponderable

I'm no conspiracy-theorist, and I try not to jump to conclusions. And quite frankly, I'm almost afraid to even think what the answer to the following might be:

On September 11, 2001,

  • with a supposedly unknown number of planes flying across the United States and crashing into buildings,
  • with Bush's presence at Booker Elementary School announced in the media three days in advance, and
  • with an airport just four miles away,
  • how did the United States Secret Service know that Bush was safe where he sat reading about goats?

How did the United States Secret Service know that they were not making targets of all those teachers and children by keeping them in that room with the President?

How did the United States Secret Service know that they did not need to drag Bush from that room and toss him into the back of his armored limousine?

How did the United States Secret Service KNOW FOR A FACT that President Bush was not a target that day?
