Under growing pressure from Democrats and aides to former President Bill Clinton, ABC is re-evaluating and in some cases re-editing crucial scenes in its new mini-series “The Path to 9/11” to soften its portrait of the Clinton administration’s pursuit of Osama bin Laden, according to people involved in the project.
Among the changes, ABC is altering one scene in which an actor playing Samuel R. Berger, the former national security adviser, abruptly hangs up on a C.I.A. officer during a critical moment in a military operation, according to Thomas H. Kean, a consultant on the ABC project and co-chairman of the federal Sept. 11 commission.
Mr. Berger has said that the scene is a fiction, and Mr. Kean, in an interview, said that he believed Mr. Berger was correct and that ABC was making appropriate changes.
The reassessment came as two Clinton aides mounted an unusual attack last night on the motives of Mr. Kean, a Republican and a former governor of New Jersey. In a letter to Mr. Kean, the two aides, Bruce R. Lindsey and Douglas Band, wrote that his defense of the mini-series “is destroying the bipartisan aura of the 9/11 Commission,” on whose findings the project is partly based. They asserted that Mr. Kean was driven by payments from ABC or his own partisan politics.

But a bombshell decision may happen anyway: Sources close to the project say the network, which has been in a media maelstrom over the pic, is mulling the idea of yanking the mini altogether.

This kind of fascism by the Senate Democrats should send a chill down the spine of even the Washington Post which wrote a very uncomplimentary editorial about Joe Wilson. Senate Democrats couldn't have liked that at all. Is WaPo next?

I wish the guy who wrote this had just stuck to the exact details - those were plenty damning without any embellishment for dramatic license.
A party that is so afraid of a movie cannot win elections.
Yes it can when they control the "Ministry of Propaganda", aka the MSM.
They can't block this video link. Please send it to your friends and relatives.

Were the Clintoons paid by the Opecker Thugs to protect Ben Laden?
Are the Clintoons and rats in Congress still getting paid to protect the al Qaeda serial killers, who would kill all of us if given an opportunity?
If it's not true, what was Sandy Berger stealing and destroying from the National Archives?
Gramps..can you post that link as a separate thread?

Important to note: according to CNN¡¯s report, Predators weren¡¯t armed with missiles at the time. It would have taken between three and seven hours to hit the base with missiles after Osama had been spotted.
Why wasn¡¯t it hit? Watch the clip and see. Why didn¡¯t the producers of ¡°Path to 9/11¡å dramatize this incident instead of the bogus composite scene with Sandy Berger? Alas, that¡¯s known only to God.
FYI, I¡¯ve saved a copy of the video to my hard drive. Just in case Harry Reid should suddenly find ¡°irregularities
Thanks. I hadn't seen that. I'm just so fed up with all the B.S. I may not even watch the movie now.
I think that we can rip them a new one with that video link.
thank you for the link :)
