ENTIRE SPEECH: http://worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=32088
DFU comments -- Three years ago, Tim Robbins was disinvited from speaking at the Baseball Hall of Fame at Cooperstown. Neither the Bush Adminstration nor any Republican group in Congress did anything to try to prevent that speech. As we await the showing of THE PATH TO 911, we see a former president and the highest levels of the Democratic Party threatening legal and legislative action against ABC if a movie is shown.
Does everyone now realize what would happen if Hillary got back into the White House? Or how about the danger if the Dems take back control of Congress? Free speech is fine for them. They want to shut down ours. That is an inconvenient truth.
==========================
Tim Robbins National Press Club in Washington, D.C., on April 15, 2003.
PERHAPS THE MOST QUOTED EXCERPT:
"A chill wind is blowing in this nation. A message is being sent through the White House and its allies in talk radio and Clear Channel and Cooperstown. If you oppose this administration, there can and will be ramifications."
==========================
No, folks. The chill wind is coming from only one direction -- the left side of the political aisle. They are really afraid of a movie that threatens to awaken those who were asleep as to what Clinton really did and failed to do. The Clinton legacy is poised to go straight down the crapper where it belongs. Their party is in absolute panic. Especially Hillary.
Oh really? I was not aware of that. But wouldn't calculating how many times an item gets checked-out be so paperwork intensive as to be impractical? Interesting.
There have been great prison movies I just didn't think TSR is one of them. The Stephen King story it was based on was better...much less grandstanding and a bit more ambiguous.
Damn. Sometimes I check-out a DVD without leaving the library, simply as a matter of being polite. I don't want other patrons or staff looking for something I have on the desk.
That's very polite of you!
I used to work in a library.
It's a fantastic movie. I think you should give it 1 more screening...kind of a ceremony sort of thing...
Actually, if a movie is checked out of a library often enough, it adds up to the popularity of it. That means MONEY for the producer, director, lead actor, etc.
