Sarasota principal defends Bush from "Fahrenheit 9/11" portrayal

SARASOTA - Michael Moore's film "Fahrenheit 9/11" criticizes President
Bush
for listening to Sarasota second-graders read a story for nearly seven
minutes after learning the nation was under attack on Sept. 11, 2001.

But Gwendolyn Tose'-Rigell, the principal at Emma E. Booker Elementary
School, says Bush handled himself properly.

"I don't think anyone could have handled it better," Tose'-Rigell told the
Sarasota Herald-Tribune in a story published Wednesday. "What would it
have
served if he had jumped out of his chair and ran out of the room?"


Gwendolyn Tose may be on to something here. Bush should have sat not for
seven minutes, but to the end of his term reading the goat book. I wish he
would have waited the full seven minutes before he attacked a country that
had nothing to do with 9/11.
