I don't know where you got that 'your boy' crap just because I asked for a specific explanation (which you did not provide, BTW).

Let's suppose it WAS 8:47 a.m. that morning. How many planes were in the air over America? How was the administration able to know that there were more hijackers aboard more planes, what their plans were, where they would take over the plane, and what they planned to do with it?

There was no law that I know of that would've allowed the feds to know who was aboard the planes, and what the hijackers eventual plans were.

I'm asking the question: How were the Feds, at 8:47 the morning of 9/11, able to know that at 9:05, or 9:28, or 9:55--or whatever the times were--to know that some muslim men on three more airplanes would stand up, use box cutters to hold the crew hostage, take over the plane, and crash it into the 2nd tower, the Pentagon, and the field in Pennsylvania? And what could they have done had they known? Was there any provision for shooting down a full airliner full of Americans over populated areas? What law was on the books respecting that scenario?

If what you're saying is true--that Bush & Co. was in on it--then the answers to those questions should be easy to come up with.
