Its understandable the Clintonistas and President Clinton are upset about the two-part ABC miniseries The Path to 9/11 to be broadcast Sunday, concluding on the fifth anniversary of the al-Qaida attack on America on Monday.
Based on the 9-11 commission report and ABC News correspondent John Millers book, The Cell, the film strips away the conventional wisdom that somehow the fledgling Bush White House was responsible for 9-11 through neglect or indifference.
The film strips bare the Democratic talking points, exposing them for the fraud they are, accurately depicting the chances the Clinton White House missed to kill or capture bin Laden and the barriers they put up to connecting all the information.
It starts with the first attack on the World Trade Center in 1993, which the Clinton administration chose to treat as a law enforcement matter and not the first shot in al-Qaidas war against America. That, the film shows, is where the path really began.

"...Believe it or dont, Clintons aides worried that bin Laden might be killed in the process, making it look like a political assassination.
According to the 9-11 commission report, they were worried of recriminations in the event that bin Laden, despite our best intentions and efforts, did not survive.
The second chance came on Aug. 20, 1998, in the famous wag the dog attack at the height of le affaire Lewinsky, when cruise missiles were actually fired at a bin Laden encampment in Afghanistan. The problem was that Clinton ordered that the Pakistanis be told of the attack, lest they think it was an attack from India. The news was leaked, and bin Laden dodged our bullets. The final missed chance came in May 1999 when the CIA reported bin Laden would be in Kandahar, Afghanistan. As the 9-11 commission report said: If this intelligence was not actionable, working-level officials said at the time and today, it was hard for them to imagine how any intelligence could meet that standard. It was the Clinton administration that could have put Osama bin Laden out of commission. It was under Clinton that Americans were killed by terrorists on three continents without a meaningful response. It was under Bill Clinton that we left Somalia in disgrace after dead Americans were dragged through the streets, giving bin Laden all the proof of our lack of will he needed. And it was Clintons deputy attorney general, Jamie Gorelick, who created the wall of separation between the FBI and CIA that kept us from connecting the information and preventing 9-11. Whats the word that describes all this? Ah, yes, incompetence.

Wouldn't that have sucked.
The real bottom line here is the clintonists and dimocrats are complaining that some one else is telling stories about them. The truth of the story is irrelevant. They are crying over the fact that some one else is exercising their rights to talk about the run up to September 11, 2001.
And like very young, spoiled, brats everywhere they are threatening to hold their breaths (call in lawyers) until we let them have their way.
My take is - I wonder how many shades of blue they will turn before they start breathing again?
Islamofasist hit us in Somalia. Support the Islamofasist in Serbia.
Islamofasist hit our Embassies in Africa. Mr. Clinton Plants a big wet kiss on Terrorist Arafat.
Islamofasist hit our USS Cole. Have Mrs. Clinton Plant a big wet kiss on Mrs. Terrorist Arafat.
By the time this is edited and we get tio see it Bill Clinton will look like a shining white knight leading the charge against terrorism. ABC will cave in like a cheap suit.
I see where a new osama plotting 9/11 tape is out. I am almost beginning to think the media is turning on Clinton.
The media will never turn on their allies on the left. They live in harmony: one tells lies and the other benefits.

With all this hype , from ABC with the help of the Clintons, some how I expect the Clinton Adminstration to come out smelling like Roses.
Oh my, no one should want to let Clinton potentially have a bad legacy, now would we. That is the priority, and we did get it right, didn't we?
This reveals the true Clinton legacy:
"Asleep at the helm."
And if that fails, Socks can steal the damning evidence later.
