In fact, the only people I've heard that are really upset about this is the Democrats themselves. Which tells me that a) they're playing defense for the sake of Clinton's legacy and b) they don't want Americans thinking about 9/11 and the mistakes that led us to that attack right before the election.

This is exactly right. The dems don’t want anyone putting the spotlight on their roll in the failures leading up to 9/11 at a time when Pelosi and friends are pretending that they are the “security” party. This whole outrage thing by the left is a blessing. This mini-series does not necessarily put the Bush administration in a good light yet conservative reviewers and Republicans in Congress have been urging people to see it. This demonstrates that Conservatives are not afraid to discuss the truth about such an important event while libs want to whitewash the truth for the sake of fooling the nation into trusting them. The sad part about this whole liberal meltdown is that Scholastic pulled the teacher resource kit that would have been used to create class discussion about 9/11. The whole kit was a take home list of questions that students were supposed to think about while watching the movie. This would have resulted in enhanced viewership for the most impressionable segment of society along with their parents. The dems successfully shut that down. It is pretty insightful. The Dems have proved once again that they would rather forget 9/11 than have Americans think back and realize that this terrible tragedy did not have to happen. Worse, taking the focus off the event sullies the honor and respect of the heroes and victims. All of this courtesy of the American left. They should just change their party name to "no shame".

Yep. The Clinton admin/Dems didn't prevent 9/11. The Bush administration/Repubs didn't prevent 9/11. But look what has happened AFTER 9/11. That's what they don't want people talking / thinking about.

Even if the discussion after the movie turns to failure to implement 9/11 commission's recommendations, Americans still will be faced with the question, "Who do I trust the most with national security?". THAT is the election-winner question that Dems don't people to think about.

Therefore, it's comical to hear Pelosi state that they will pass ALL the recommendations of the commission the first week they have control of Congress. We're Democrats -- we're tough on terror -- trust us. Because we say so (but don't look at our record or how we've undercut the War on Terror at every turn).
