Armitage's excuse for his 3 year silence when the Bush Administration was being hammered and Libby was being vilified was that Fitzgerald asked him NOT to reveal that he had been the 'leaker'. So WHY did Fitzgerald continue his 'search'? He's nothing but a fraud himself.

No doubt bubba sent the following email to his friends at Disney.

Only in America would a fat man in a suit who happened to belong to a party with little if no military affiliation think of making political threats.

What's hard to grasp is that he didn't SEE this film sooner..I mean..they had it vetted by lawyers and such..he had to have known it was going to stir up some..stuff.

Or is this yet another CEO sitting in the Office of Oblivion?

New Target: Disney Chairman George Mitchell

Over 50,000 ThinkProgress readers have written ABC in the last 48 hours about “The Path to 9/11.” We’re going to keep the pressure on ABC, but we’re also broadening our focus today to the Walt Disney Company, which owns ABC.

Disney’s Chairman of the Board is former Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell (D-ME). Senator Mitchell has a long and distinguished career both inside and outside government and he knows how important it is to accurately represent historical events.

We need to remind him that 9/11 was a national tragedy, and that politicizing and flagrantly misrepresenting the facts about 9/11 is wrong.

Senator George J. Mitchell

(Remember to be polite, and please copy us at tellabc@americanprogressaction.org so we can keep track your comments.)

ABC is feeling the pressure. Let’s keep it up.

The producers could threaten ABC as they probably broke the contract and everything and turn it around and sell it to Rush and/or Fox.

Lawyers only look at the facts for potential lawsuits ..

My guess is the facts panned out and matched ... that is why they didn't question it

The one signed by the Senators calls for possible military use....much more compelling.

This is such a momentous overstepping of bounds it cannot go unchallenged.

Agreed Old Friend, and you are a good friend. but I ask you who or whom will do what?

This is arrogance gone wild in the rat party but they have to think that no one will step in to stop them or they would not have tried such a blatantly mobster style act.

Just called Lautenberg, if the old coot wakes up before 9/10 he will get my message. I told him the letter to disney was an abuse of power and was an abridgment of freedom of speech and press.

"The evidence is overwhelming that such changes will not happen under the current Iraq leadership."

Someone needs to sends this to that Democrat chick with the shiney blouse who's been on Fox News twice today.

Well the legislative action is out. You can't mount that from the rumble seat.

And if ABC has the background material to prove what it is including in it's presentation, then they should insert more vile material against the Clintons and their minions, and air that on Sunday and Monday as well.

Some day I would like to think there was one public entity that would refuse to pucker when the Clinton's said jump.

It is all fine to talk about blatant attempts to censor, by the dems.

And it is fine to expose the fact Clinton failed to take out bin Laden, 6, 7, 8, 9 ,10 years ago.

However politically this whole ABC issue could backfire.

The dems may say, fine---mistakes were made by Clinton, who did not kill/capture bin Laden.

But Bush has not done so, either and it has been 5 (FIVE) years. And obviously, the highest priority was reached 9/11/2001, under Bush.

And of course Pakistan is our ally, and so forth.

So I say don't get your hopes up that this is a brilliant political issue.
