DALLAS – Terry Abbott shared a unique first hand account of traveling with the president on 9/11 with a group of seniors at Skyline High School on Thursday.
“I flew down with the President on September 10th,” Abbott said. “My one and only time on Air Force One was September 10th, 2001.”
Abbott said President George W. Bush did the right thing by sitting in that Sarasota school ten years ago and not overreacting to his chief of staff’s whisper that the country was under attack.
“Had the president looked like he was thrown off his game, jumped up and ran out, the terrorists would have realized that we were off balance, that we were off guard,” Abbott explained.
