Yea blowhard and when bush was faced with the shoe bomber it took him twice as long and we all know he wasn't too fucking intellectual
Bush immediately addressed the incident you stated. Americans immediately at all airports were throwing tubes of make-up--lotion--etc. in the garbage. Bush was on T.V. same day responding to it. And he didn't refer to it as an isolated incident either-- It took Obama 72 hours to address the issue--because he had to get together with all of his political operatives--so they could encode his teleprompter on what he needed to say.
You had Janet Incompetano telling us that all "security systems" worked. She must be another one of your highly educated intellectuals.-
Reid tried to take down flight 63 on 12/22/01. Bush's first address where he mentions Reid was 12/31/01 and released 01/01/02. Your memory is very selective and makes for fine fiction.
