Bush and World War III
ShareIn case you missed it....
Asked by CNBC's Larry Kudlow last Fruday if he had seen "United 93," Pres. Bush said: "I have not. I wouldn't call it a lighter note. And I suspect the movie touched you."
Kudlow: "It did."
Bush: "And it's a -- it's a remembrance of the nature of the world in which we live. And it's also a remembrance of the heroic action that Americans were -- are willing to take in the face of danger. I haven't seen it yet. I will see it."
Kudlow said: "The late Scott Beamer's dad, David, was on our program. He wrote a great article in the Wall Street Journal, and he said, essentially, that when the passengers retook that plane, he called it the first counterattack for World War III."
Bush: "Yeah."
Kudlow: "I didn't know if you saw. I don't know if you have a thought on that."
Bush: "I believe that. I believe that it was the first counterattack of World War III. It was -- it was unbelievably heroic of the -- of those folks on the airplane to recognize the danger and -- and save lives" ("Kudlow & Company," CNBC, 5/5).
