The MSM's Clinton worship in full-blast mode.

(No more Olmert! No more Kadima! No more Oslo! )

4 million more people watched "Path to 9/11" and the CBS 9/11 show (both running at the same time as the ballgame) than watched the ballgame. 4 million more Americans cared about 9/11 than the "Manning Show". Just to put this liberal tripe into perspective.

I hope that the author Ruth does not have boney knees. They are going to hurt kneeling like she does, bowing before the "alter" of klintoon. This author is a real "lewinsky".

I wish someone would swing a deal with the people across the street from the Washington Post. I'd like to see a 100x500 foot sign that said, "F U Washington Post."

"the most flagrantly dishonest scenes: Bill Clinton's national security adviser Sandy Berger slamming down the phone on a fictional CIA operative pleading for permission to attack Osama bin Laden in the spring of 1998"

Umm...How is this exactly dishonest? IIRC, in Lt. Col. Patterson's fine book "Dereliction of Duty: The Eyewitness Account of How Bill Clinton Compromised America's National Security" this actually happened (maybe not in that exact way, but the opportunity to squish UBL was rejected). So, I guess Ruth's calling more people liars than the writers of "The Path to 9/11."

IMHO, the only glaring problem with the movie was that Richard Clarke was portrayed as some sort of goody goody superman.

The important thing is that the movie was aired and seen by 13 million people. I would bet that people who are more inclined to tune in to a 9/11 movie than a football game are also more inclined to vote. Personally, I am truly enjoying watching the scumbags of the left - - including this pig "Ruth Marcus" - - gnash their teeth.

The movie aired, and it was devastating to Clinton and the rats because it was a truthful, well-documented dramatization of the incompetence, cowardice, and selfishness of the Clinton Admasturbation which enabled the slaughter of 3,000 people.

Ruth Marcus attempts to tie Harvey Mansfield's new book, Manliness, to the liberal lament about the Bush Administration, arguing "What this country could use is a little less manliness -- and a little more of what you would describe as womanly qualities: restraint, introspection, a desire for consensus, maybe even a touch of self-doubt."

The great thing about this show is that it tells the story that ties all of these names and events together. I don't think that context has really been given outside of books. The claims of it being fictional are going to be hard to sell to people who watched it and recalled the various things happening. They just put all of these well-known facts together in a way that makes it understandable. What's most shameful about the Clinton-party attacks on this movie is that, regardless of the composite characters and such, it is a great history lesson that everyone should get. Everyone should understand what led up to 9/11.

Thanks to redstate.com that they posted the original Sandy Burglar scene of Osama Bin Laden not being captured. The abbreviated version that aired just doesn't give you time to appreciate the situation. ABC should start taking pre-orders of the director's cut DVD.

Just curious if they ever included the TRUE scene of Clinton never visiting the WTC after the first bombing but instead going to NYC for, whatelse, a fundraiser. That says it all about Clintons regards to terror during his 8 years. It was always "me me me".

Does it matter that ABC invented and distorted history....

The movie was more accurate than the typical nightly news casts or newspaper. Certainly 100 times more accurate than anything Micheal Moore ever put out.

Liberal women must have the same mindset as muslim women.

1.5 million vs. 13 million. Seems like a pretty successful outing. They gamined 10X the audience as the book. Yet the MSM poo-poos it as a failure because more people tuned into football.

First, it removed the most flagrantly dishonest scenes: Bill Clinton's national security adviser Sandy Berger slamming down the phone on a fictional CIA operative pleading for permission to attack Osama bin Laden in the spring of 1998

He is real, and he has a face and a name: "Michael Scheuer, a 22-year veteran of the CIA that used to head up “Alec Station,” the Counterterrorist Center’s Osama bin Laden unit."

You can read about hime on pages 110 through 115 of the 9/11 Commission report in the section, subtitled “The CIA Develops a Capture Plan,” the commissioners chronicled a 1997 – 1998 strategy to capture or kill bin Laden in Afghanistan:

A compound of about 80 concrete or mud-brick buildings surrounded by a 10-foot wall, Tarnak Farms was located in an isolated desert area on the outskirts of the Kandahar airport. CIA officers were able to map the entire site, identifying the houses that belonged to Bin Ladin’s wives and one where Bin Ladin himself was most likely to sleep. Working with the tribals, they drew up plans for the raid. They ran two complete rehearsals in the United States during the fall of 1997. By early 1998, planners at the Counterterrorist Center were ready to come back to the White House to seek formal approval.

Ruth Marcus - A face and voice made for newspaper.

Just for giggles, wonder how many folks TiVoed the two episodes and watched them all at once AND watched the football game(s) Sunday and Monday.

Dinosaur Media is still a bit slow on the technological advances that have been made since Guttenberg.

In 1980 when Reagan trounced Carter, the MSM was at its Zenith. But then a strange thing happened. Folks started watching Reagan and all of sudden discovered that the reportage by the MSM was, ahem, slanted.

Believing their lying eyes and ears rather than the MSM, people started tuning out, cancelling subscriptions and looking elsewhere for accurate news instead of the MSM/DNC/Liberal talking points du jour.

CBS News was at the top of the ratings game at around a 16 share. ABC and NBC were close behind with 13 and 14 shares. Today, look at them:

And the MSM print outlets have declined just as much.

Instead of emulating what works, fair and balanced and/or conservative, they march in lemming lockstep to the cliffs of irrelevancy.

And Ruth Marcus is just another minister in the Church of "We Just Need To Get Our Liberal Message Out So People Will Understand How Wonderful We Are."

Well, Ruthie old girl, hate to tell you, but the jackass has died. And as a minister of the Church of Truth, I'm telling you this because my job is to notify the next of kin.

These idiots are crowing that the football game had more viewers and only 13 million tuned in. Gee, I wonder how many people TIVOed it? Way more than 13 million watched it. And as for those of us that watched the football game, I don't need to see any documentary or whatever regarding 9/11. I saw the whole thing live with my own eyes. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to connect the dots. While Bill Clinton ignored the attacks on his watch, the terrorist were emboldened, it's that simple.
