If you are Obama, remember he said he will always take the side of the Muslims in his book.

Answer 2

organize humanitarian aid, and offer assistance in investigating what happened.

& ya, the Presidency is an ON-CALL job

too bad Bush doesn't understand that,

after being told "America is under attack"

he continued to sit in a school room and do NOTHING.

I'd call that Criminal dereliction of DUTY!

If America isn't under attack, the sectary of defense or ambassador to Israel will handle it.  

These continence plans have been all laid out in advance.

Answer 10

Sit there reading "My Pet Goat " to a bunch of 1st graders.

1) Put your military on high alert.

2) Bring in all of your top middle-astern advisers

3) Begin the process of finding out who was responsible.

4) Take military action as needed.

If you are George Bush you just invade a country that you don't like that has oil and hold them responsible.

Answer 11

As soon as that happens we're all gone anyway. A nuclear explosion will cause immediate reactions in China, Israel, India, Russia and Pakistan.

Answer 12

I'd jump up, put on my bunny slippers, grab my robe, have a cuppa, ask my national security adviser to locate Bush or McCain to see if they were somehow responsible. If they weren't I'd then blame Chavez.
