"That would be like CBS commissioning a movie about the Clintons written by Rush Limbaugh and starring Dennis Miller and Ann Coulter. Do you think that would ever happen?"
Damn ... that would make an awesome movie!!!
Al Franken could play Barney Frank.
Rush Limbaugh could play .... Rush Limbaugh.
We know that Pres B. is a real Man...
thus, rises above the dims(democrats)
crap du jour...(I don't usually cuss, but 'caint hep it sometimes with some topics.)
Day vs night way of doing & thinking & being.
Who the hell needs "TV". *spit*
The pertinent clips altered by Klinkton will begin to appear in their full, unedited glory on YouTube & P2P of your choice before the show is over Sunday night.
He's too "butch" to play Bawney.
You know what it kind of sounds like? Remember the report when Clinton was before the Grand Jury that he stormed out of the room and acted horribly, and then when the tape was shown, there was nothing like that? Maybe this ABC thing has been a bait-and-switch all along. Joe Viewer: "Huh. That didn't make Clinton look as bad as they said it would."
And that is what the truth actually is here. Clinton gets more heat because he was in office for 8 years while Bush several months before 9/11 occurred.
Sounds like the director wanted to be fair about the subject. Feel sorry for him to have been shafted by ABC and the Dems. Maybe he will reconsider his politics? lol.
But the Democrat Party is . . .
Then hopefully my post right above the one I'm typing here is completely wrong. Sounds like it is.
"Clinton did everything the could to protect America but it was Bush, along with big business that brought on the attacks. "
Idiot. I hope you are facutally refuting that.
Bush Derangement Syndrome is a serious, serious malady.
Send 'em this story ...
“THE WHITE HOUSE SITUATION ROOM was buzzing. It was fall 1998 and the National Security Council (NSC) and the "intelligence community" were tracking the whereabouts of Osama bin Laden, the shadowy mastermind of terrorist attacks on American targets overseas. "They've successfully triangulated his location," yelled a "Sit Room" watch stander. "We've got him."
Beneath the West Wing of the White House, behind a vaulted steel door, the Sit Room staff sprang into action. The watch officer notified National Security Advisor Sandy Berger, “Sir, we've located bin Laden. We have a two-hour window to strike.”
Characteristic of the Clinton administration, the weapons of choice would be Tomahawk missiles. No clandestine "snatch" by our Special Operations Forces. No penetrating bombers or high speed fighter aircraft flown by our Air Force and Navy forces. No risk of losing American lives.
Berger ambled down the stairwell and entered the Sit Room. He picked up the phone at one of the busy controller consoles and called the president. Amazingly, President Clinton was not available. Berger tried again and again. Bin Laden was within striking distance. The window of opportunity was closing fast. The plan of attack was set and the Tomahawk crews were ready. For about an hour Berger couldn't get the commander in chief on the line. Though the president was always accompanied by military aides and the Secret Service, he was somehow unavailable. Berger stalked the Sit Room, anxious and impatient.
Finally, the president accepted Berger's call. There was discussion, there were pauses and no decision. The president wanted to talk with his secretaries of defense and state. He wanted to study the issue further. Berger was forced to wait. The clock was ticking. The president eventually called back. He was still indecisive. He wanted more discussion. Berger alternated between phone calls and watching the clock.
The NSC watch officer was convinced we had the right target. The intelligence sources were conclusive. The president, however, wanted a guaranteed hit or nothing at all.
This time, it was nothing at all. We didn't pull the trigger. We "studied" the issue until it was too late - the window of opportunity closed. Al-Qaeda's spiritual and organizational leader slipped through the noose.
This lost bin Laden hit typified the Clinton administration's ambivalent, indecisive way of dealing with terrorism. Ideologically, the Clinton administration was committed to the idea that most terrorists were misunderstood, had legitimate grievances, and could be appeased, which is why such military action as the administration authorized was so halfhearted, and ineffective, and designed more for "show" than for honestly eliminating a threat.”
Dereliction of Duty, page 129 –131, Lt. Col. Robert ‘Buzz” Patterson, USAF (Ret.) 2003,
"Today CBS issued this statement, 'Although the mini-series features impressive production values and acting performances, and although the producers have sources to verify each scene in the script, we believe it does not present a balanced portrayal of the Reagans for CBS and its audience.' Well, fine, but how could CBS green light the film in the first place knowing that the producers, the director and the featured actors are all left wing thinkers?"That would be like CBS commissioning a movie about the Clintons written by Rush Limbaugh and starring Dennis Miller and Ann Coulter. Do you think that would ever happen?"
Of course, that's uncannily close to what Disney actually did -- took a fictionalized script about the attacks on 9/11 written by a "good friend" of Rush Limbaugh, and figured that even though it flatly made up entire story themes and chains of fact, they'd just throw it up on the emotionally charged anniversary."
Hunter is not the sharpest knife in the Kosslack drawer. But his inability to discern the irony within his own worthless diary-rhea is so, so telling. Particularly looking forward to the Schadenfreudic sounds of his empty head-banging after the Pubs retain the House & Senate this fall...
Thanks, right now they are snowed under with the stuff I have sent. Knew all of the saved stuff from FR and other sites would come in handy sometime and now is the time. I have been dumping on them for about 4 hours now without one response. I will send your posting next. Outstanding and thank you.
Anyone who spots this, please ping or e-mail me.
I am so angry about ABC's caving, I could spit!
Send them post #156 too. Good info in there.
Here's Burglar's letter to ABC. Of course we can believe Sandy Burglar, he's an honest man. ROFL
