88. NORAD on 9/11 ........ lies and absurdities
Andrews Air Force Base is 10 minutes from the Pentagon.
On a day when the President was flying in and out of DC, on a mission to Sarasota, Forida to read "pet goat" stories to school kids (no offense intended to one of my favorite posters at this thread),
it goes without saying that there would combat-ready squadrons ready to scramble within minutes, if only to guard against any possible threat to the President on Air Force One.
There have always been at least 2 combat-ready squadrons standing by at Andrews for routine diplomatic flights arriving or departing from the the District of Corruption.
If Tony Blair flies in or out, you better believe they are ready to scramble immediately.
Six minutes at most to fire-up the engines and get aloft.
I know this ... because Andrews AFB is right down the road from me.
I've broached this subject with civilian personnel who actually work there, and they reply that "we can't talk about it..."
"Privileged information", apparently.
As for the other bases in the immediate vicinity of the Pentagon (Bolling, Langley) ... what more need be said ?
But if you want to get a sense of the contantly shifting timelines, changing stories and general shucking and jiving from NORAD - to account for their inexplicable non-role that morning ...
just check out what Minnesotat Senator Mark Dayton had to say about NORAD ..

You remember Senator Mark Dayton, right ?

He replaced the late Paul Wellstone .... who I suspect got whacked in one of these periodic "accidental" air crashes, that occur so conveniently from time-to-time.
