141. The official story unravels
When you consider the reaction of *'s secret service guards during the attack.

He's in a highly insecure area participating in a well publicized event whilst people know that the country is under attack.

What does the secret service do? (Multiple choice to make it easier)
a) Rush * to a secure army/air force base locally
b) Rush * to Air Force One and immediately take off to ensure the security of the commander in chimpchief
c) Secure the location, bring in the army and air force to patrol the skies and ground around *
d) Absolutely nothing at all, he's reading a book after all

We know that the secret service agents will throw themselves in the way of a bullet from the actions during the Reagan assassination attempt - a policeman and a secret service agent were also shot by John Hinckley during the melee. Yet on 9/11 the secret service just sat there? No attempts to secure the location, no moves to get * to safety, nothing. You must either consider this to be one of the biggest lapses of concentration in the secret service's history or you're forced to consider that there was no need to secure the location as they already knew that it wasn't a target.
