Here is Tyson's account of President Bush's 9-11 speech:

According to Tyson, Bush "attempted to distinguish we from they". Attempting to sow division during that highly emotional time would have been reprehensible but the sort of behavior we'd expect from a Republican president.

However, Bush's actual speech was a call for tolerance and inclusion, exactly the opposite of the xenophobe demagogue Tyson paints:

Tyson delivered this fiction to pseudo skeptic conferences for 8 years. Then in 2014 Sean Davis of the Federalist blew the whistle on Tyson. After some arm twisting Tyson admitted his error and apologized to President Bush. See this Washington Post column:

The Bush and Star Names story is his intro into a talk on the Islamic Golden Age where he also delivers one falsehood after another. See items 2 through 4 in my list:

@McVinegar You ask me to provide proof Tyson says wrong stuff. I did so.

If you want to put a BSer on a pedestal, that's your privilege. But know that you're not that different from Trump's birthers.
