Boy, you've got some good memory, Christian. Good find.

[jrooney]

Okay I will.

[oceanview]

how many people are going to seek out the uncut version? very few.

either it airs unedited on a network, that can reach alot of sheeple viewers, or the Dems will have succeeded.

The former president of Iran can come to Harvard to lecture us on the anniversary of 9-11, and that we have to put up with because it is "free speech". But an American news organization can't broadcast a factual documentary about the precursors to 9-11 - that Sandy Burger didn't stuff in his pants - because that's false and defamatory.

Everyone can find out about the censureship if we get off our darned behinds and send out e-mails.

But a movie about assassinating President Bush is A.O.K with the Dems isn't it? That's freedom of speech. But a movie that isn't nice to Bolsheviks, well that's all together different.

The Hezbocrat leadership publicly and in writing, dares to dictate what a major media outlet may or may not air, when said party is not even in power. This should remove any doubt as to the agenda of the Hezbocrats, should they ever regain power, to neuter the Bill of Rights and the Constitution as well, in order to retain power ever after.

Their mask is now off and their ugly, bully thug face is exposed to the world.

The Communications Act of 1934 provides your network with a free broadcast license predicated on the fundamental understanding of your principle obligation to act as a propaganda agent of the DNC................

Holey moley. Just when I was getting to ready to vote Democrat, too.

That does it! If they're throwing around threats like this, I'm voting straight Republican ticket this year!

Dems don't seem to understand who owns the rights. ABC can edit the hell out of it and I guarantee you within a week the unabridged version will be available for internet download and distribution.

When the old is compared against the new, ABC will be done.

The Democrats see the WOT as using a cannon to kill a mosquito--to them, Al Qaeda is just a bunch of thugs, not a large threat.

In fact, the WOT is more like using a pistol to kill millions of undercover agents. You have to keep looking, and keep shooting.

The Democrats think that once you've shot the terrorists who already attacked you, you've gotten them all. That's like only killing the ants at the top of the anthill.

Rush and a lot of conservatives (and Democrats) have actually seen the movie and written about it. Articles were posted on FR and it was very, very damning of the Clinton administration.

Of course, that was before there was tweaking. Now ABC admits to "editing".

These Rats are as bad as the Mullahs of Iran.
Maybe worse.

A bigger threat to American freedom, that's for sure.

There is a better chance of America becoming a liberal dictatorship than an Islamic state.

LOL

Tim Roemer just said on CNN that "Bin Ladin was NEVER in someones sights"

What a crock, Bubba told everyone that would listen the first week after 9-11 that he tried to "get him", and "just missed".

Great post!

With no respect whatsoever,

*snicker*

It sure looks like a threat. Hopefully Disney stands tough.

[Howlin]

After all the fuss over this film, the Democrats will be finished for years, if it airs as is.

What do you mean, if it airs as is?

And I just think this all has something to do with Sandy Burglar.....and they're afraid people are going to put 2 and 2 together; they got to control all THEIR information into the 911 Commission.

Hey dont ya know, it is thought provoking???? (sac. off)
