President George W. Bush said September 11, 2001 that the U.S. had taken all appropriate steps to protect the American people and would hunt down and punish those responsible for the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. 'We have taken all appropriate security precautions to protect the American people,' Bush, facing the first big test of his eight-month presidency, told reporters at a hastily arranged appearance at Barksdale Air Force Base. Bush is seen pausing for a moment of silence after speaking about the attack while visiting a school in Sarasota, Florida. (Win McNamee/Reuters)
