Former Bush Press Secretary tweets about the moment by moment events of 9-11-2001

Ari Fleischer tweeted on 9-11-2014 a moment by moment account of the activities of George W. Bush as President Bush learned about the coordinated terrorist attack on 9-11-2001. When Air Force One took off from Florida, it climbed at an unusually steep ascent, because Captain Tillman had been given a report that a sniper was at the end of the runway. Also,
the control tower told Tillman that an unidentified plane was descending toward Air Force One. There were many false reports. There were also maddeningly difficult telephone problems connecting the President with the Vice President in the bunker under the White House. The t.v.s aboard Air Force One kept coming in and out. You can read the twitter reports by going to Ari Fleischer's Twitter account.
