he Clintonistas are coming....in a panic borne of the necessity - to dispel the truth regarding how the Clinton administration failed on numerous occasions to apprehend or kill bin-Laden - the Clintonistas and Democrat party hacks like Richard Ben-Veniste alike are rising en-masse in a last ditch attempt to censor ABC's upcoming 6 hour docudrama "The Path To 9/11."
Clinton representatives drafted a four page letter to Disney Chair Michael Iger - ABC's parent company - demanding the film be censored or barring that its suppression.
"The content of this drama is factually and incontrovertibly inaccurate and ABC has the duty to fully correct all errors or pull the drama entirely..."
Ben Veniste attended an August screening of the film at the National Press Club and reportedly was so upset by the portrayal of Clinton as more intent on diddling Monica Lewinsky than dealing with bin-Laden that he got in the face of writer/producer Cyrus Nowrasteh and Gov. Thomas H. Kean [chair of the 9/11 Commission and a consultant on the project].
ABC - so far anyway - seems intent on sticking to its plan to air the now controversial film on Sunday and Monday evening, September 10th & 11th - the fifth anniversary of the attack.
"The Path to 9/11 is a dramatization, not a documentary, drawn from a variety of sources, including the 9/11 commission report, other published materials and from personal interviews."The events that lead to 9/11 originally sparked great debate, so it's not surprising that a movie surrounding those events has revived the debate. "The attacks were a pivotal moment in our history that should never be forgotten and it's fitting that the discussion continues." - ABC Television, September 7, 2006
Whether the film makes it to television relatively intact remains to be seen at this point. Ominously ABC has said that it is still being edited just days ahead of its slated debut.
The Clintonista's strong arm tactics with ABC speaks volumes regarding how fragile the Clinton legacy actually is, with a singular event threatening to sink his carefully crafted legacy of deceit.
The last word on this...for now anyway.
If anyone doubts the inherent Stalinism of the nutroots kiddies whom Harry Reid and Rahm Emanuel bend over to accommodate, one only needs to contemplate their intent to block internet access to anything but their own twisted version of "The Path to 9/11" via what they are calling a Google-bomb.
A Google-bomb - in theory only because it seems to us that the folks at Google should be able to program their algorithm's around such obvious fakery - consists of flooding the internet with thousand or even millions of cloned web pages to enforce the party line content on this whole sickening affair via manipulating key word functions and therefore their ranking order in search engines.
If there is anything that pisses off the higher ups at Google it is intentionally attempting to manipulate how the internet's most used search engine works, and the little despots in training at the lefty blogs might very well get a very rude awakening if and when they attempt this stunt.
IF ABC WAS A PIECE OF ASS, CLINTON WOULD HAVE NAILED IT.
The libs haven't stopped it, they are getting it modified.
There has been so many e-mail and FR thread with links showing how the Clinton CIA let Bin Laden get away, the truth is out there for all to see.
I must have gotten the Koppel ABC news story you-tube video link adozen times today from pals all ver the country, most non-political, and a couple lib friends who were shocjed the MSM rarely discusses the real Clinton role in weakening our defense.
no, this is the smart move by the Clintons.
By 2008, no one will remember any of this, it will be a blip on the radar - Hillary complaining about "some movie" 2 years agao.
But if the movie airs, and people see it, then it has a real impact on their attempts to return to the white house.
the Clintons chose this path because they know that 2 years from now, no one will remember this story. Hell, it will be forgotten by Tuesday.
I understand that sounding smart and informed is important to you. But, from all you have posted, I can only conclude you are neither.
If you choose to debate the facts, great. If not....choose another to respond to. I've no patience for you.
And, for future reference: Your disrespect insults only you.
what's the difference - to be honest, if its going to air edited - I'd rather it not air at all.
The Path To 9/11 -
Clinton Goes After ABC
Harder Than He Pursued Bin-Laden
To see a group of Senators in thier offical capacity threaten a broadcast group like this is shocking.
Yep, that is not right. The people of America will see this, though, it's now public record. We just need to use the tools at our disposal to ensure wide dissemination, because you know full well the MSM won't help our cause.
Unfortunatley most americans dont have a clue. They are too busy watching Idol to care.
I totally agree.
If this wasn't so serious, it would be fun to watch the Dimms implode ;-)
I'd prefer it be edited to be factual, if it wasn't already. That's the best way. Nail them on their own record.
Please recall, dear friends, that it was ABC's political officer Mark Helperin who directed his news staff NOT to hold both sides equally accountable in their coverage of the 04 elections.
I feel pretty safe in forecasting that this same fellow traveling ABC will obediently do the bidding of impeached and disbarred former president Clinton and his alleged wife.
Here's what I don't understand.
I still hold out hope that one (ein, uno) MSM news person would realize that the NEWS MEDIA share in the great jeopardy of losing freedoms as the Democrat Stalinists elbow their way into control of our opinions and lives.
Currently, the Stalinist Dems and the news media are marching arm-in-arm along the "shining path" toward the mythical the "great leap forward"; but, wouldn't at least one of them figure out that if they write so much as one teensy uncomplimentary story about the left, they are belittled, threatened, and (occupationally) smashed?
At some point, they metamorphose from news-people to political instruction typists
.
More like they want US to think they were misquoted. They want to write their own history.
You're a real class act. (/sarc)
I'd love nothing more! OK, maybe a few cold beers and a real clambake on the beach at sunset with the Hawaiian Tropic girls, but you get my point, I'm sure
Tom Kean said it was already factual, and he is hardly some member of the "vast right wing conspiracy". the editing has been done to remove content, to remove and tone down facts, to add spin and confuse the viewer. what else could it be?
HAHA! Gotcha!
Now go to bed.
True, he's no GOP'er. Watering down the truth serves no purpose either.
Look sweetcheeks, I'll debate you, just don't come off like a lemon squirt in the eye next time and we'll get off just fine.
If you have something for me, say so, just don't be so jerky, got it, toots?
This is much deeper and more important than Bill Clinton this is about our basic freedoms and proof, before our eyes, that if all the radicals in congress and the senate take over the end of this year, they won't be happy until we are living in a Stalinst-like society. They will twist and turn and do whatever necessary to make certain conservatives are never in charge again; ever.
If there is not one single thing to wake everyone up, get them off their keisters and into the voting booth to vote GOP -- not third party or dem -- it is what we are seeing the past two days.
