8:30 p.m.



President Bush gave his final address of the day from the White House at 8:30 p.m.

From the Oval Office, the president informed Americans that he had implemented federal emergency response plans, noting emergency teams and the military were already at work:

    Today, our fellow citizens, our way of life, our very freedom came under attack in a series of deliberate and deadly terrorist acts.

    The victims were in airplanes or in their offices -- secretaries, businessmen and women, military and federal workers. Moms and dads. Friends and neighbors.

    Thousands of lives were suddenly ended by evil, despicable acts of terror.

    The pictures of airplanes flying into buildings, fires burning, huge structures collapsing, have filled us with disbelief, terrible sadness and a quiet, unyielding anger.

    These acts of mass murder were intended to frighten our nation into chaos and retreat. But they have failed. Our country is strong. A great people has been moved to defend a great nation.

Let's not forget President Bush frozen in his seat for 7 minutes after being told America was under attack.
He had to find out how the book "My Pet Goat" ended.
