The First Amendment remains intact, despite the Democrats' legal eagles.

The Jawa Report has also intercepted a super-sekret email from an anonymous high-level Kos Administration operative:
Updates will be added as they come in. Don't be fooled, little ones.The Clinton legacyAmerica is still in danger of complete and utter destruction from the GOP/Rove attack machine as long as ABC is broadcasting this TV show, so that may change. We'll will be remembered as heroes if we survive these broadcasts (once ABC's licenses get pulled). Have faith, commrades.I can hear the screams of my oppressed leftwing compatriots from my open window, crying tears for truthiness to emerge through the veil of the long, dark night of BuchCo fascism. A dark day for the United States. We'll survive this unforgivable injustice. Somehow.

They were bleating like stuck pigs at Kos. I fear there may be too much lead in the water in some parts of the country,

Poor Libs. They have one single movie that doesn't make them look fantastic and they go apeshit about it. Some of their own medicine for a change. Welcome to our world, you assholes. Clinton even sicked his lawyers on them. Major pussies, these Libs. lol!

I was trying so hard to keep my mouth shut on this one. Oh, I know I'm gonna suffer for this but...
I should point out I haven't seen the show. I've read most of the 9/11 commission report, I see no need to see the show.
Seriously, the complaints were legit (although the reaction was quite a bit over blown). To put it bluntly, they could have made the Clinton administration look REALLY bad with just the facts (Hell, Clinton himself said as much in his book). Instead they chose to completely make up several incidents that didn't even happen. Everything I've read that came from the Clinton people addressed these scenes directly.
Normally I would say they could make a movie all about Clinton having gay sex with alien midgets and air it, I don't care, it's their channel, they can do as they please. Problem is they're billing it as historically accurate and based on the 9/11 commission report.
While I know one has a right (free speach) to rewrite history, doesn't mean you should and it doesn't mean it's right (moral).
Also, before I get pounced on, turn it around and I feel exactly the same. For example the Reagan movie was also wrong.

>>>Instead they chose to completely make up several incidents that didn't even happen.
Rich,
it isn't history, nor a documentary, it's a docudrama. That's all it claims to be. So it goes without saying that there is dramatic license. That's why there are scenes in the movie where people say something that the real people claim not to have said. Nonetheless, according to the movie director, they reflect the actual thinking/facts at the time. The dramatic license part is putting that into the mouths of the characters. Naturally, nobody wants words put in their mouth, that's understandable. But like I said, it's a docudrama, not a documentary.

I have to agree with Rich.
There's such a wealth of damning evidence about the Clinton Administration's dismal performance as regards terrorism, the filmmakers could've gone with the facts and avoided the easy criticism.
What I'm saying is: where you have the objective facts on your side, why give your critics extra ammunition?

Jesusland Carlos,
Oh, I know what the show is classified as but, how do you think most people will take it? They could call the damn thing "complete and total fiction" for all I care and I'd still have a problem with it.
It's advertised as "based on the 9/11 commission report" and the title alone gives it an air of authority.
Yes, on a technicality they're in the clear but considering how the average American who sees it will take it, I think it's wrong.

Shit! 8 more shootings in the last 24 hrs. That makes 22 in the last 72 hrs. Ya'll come on down here to New Orleans and see what happens when a city is run by black liberals.
The murders here are out pacing Iraq. Close to 300 murders in the last year and not one conviction. THINK ABOUT THAT. Just one section a large metropolitan area.

Where I think that this movie does the most damage is not in its negative portrayal of Clinton, because it is not really negative, and not in leaving one with the impression that the MAIN PREOCCUPATION of practically everybody involved in national security were POLITICAL CONSIDERATIONS and not national security.
Obviously mistakes were made and wrong decisions were taken but I think that most people would understand that, as tragic as the results of these mistakes were, humans are not perfect no matter how high a position in government they reach. I think, though, that where this movie is going to have a large impact is in bringing forth that there is NO DIFFERENCE in approach, with respect to national security especially when dealing with terrorism, BETWEEN THE PAST AND CLEARLY FAILED CLINTON ADMINISTRATION ANTI-TERRORISM POLICY AND THE CURRENT DEMOCRATIC PARTY POLICY.
If I am correct this will have a huge impact on the upcoming elections: If you do not like what was done in the run-up to 9/11 then you better not elect Democrats!

I'm waiting for the DVDs of both versions. According to Rush only a minute was deleted and ABC stood up. DELETERS are democrats. Here's the proof.
