They said they were going to do a Google Bomb and if it worked they were going to use this tactic from now until the elections. Not every googlebomber is liberal. ;)

I need to go to bed. I will check in first thing in the morning. Glad to see this is being picked up by National Review and such. See you tomorrow!

Those 574 members who would sit out the election don't belong on this forum.
There is nothing conservative about a person who doesn't care enough about the country to keep this party of evil thugs and liars from regaining power.
It CANNOT happen!

Can you copy the highlights with the comments?

It will NOT be cancelled. And I don't think it will be edited either.
The stories about ABC "tweaking" the story are likely false. You can't "tweak" something in the can without a MASSIVE effort.
I am pretty sure Disney/ABC is just telling the anti-free speech folks on the Left what they want to hear.
I didnt like the "new look" Disney with their pro-gay ways but when Eisner left I think the "traditional" -- in every sense of the word -- Disney might be back.

but it's also political suicide, IMO. Threatening Disney? I mean, c'mon! Who in this country is going to think that's what Congressmen should be doing?What they are doing carries no small amount of risk. We all grew up on the Disney greats, and no matter what we think of some of Disney's more recent releases and Gay Days, it's still a POWERFUL American icon.
Of course the democrats wouldn't hesitate to shoot Bambi's mother themselves if they thought it would help them politically.

This solid Republican, two time Bush voter is disappointed we have not killed or captured bin Laden. When was the last time you saw a video from Bin Laden? He's dead and buried under tons of rubble somewhere in Afghanistan. October of the 2004 would have been the PERFECT time to politically defeat Bush ... and he never showed.
He's gone man.

If they cut large portions out folks who've seen the original will know and Disney will look even worse. They have to show the whole thing.

"the manner in which this program has been developed, funded, and advertised
Since when is it the business of the government how a private business operates beyond complying with the law? They also complain about "promoting this miniseries across conservative blogs and talk shows". So word of mouth on conservative websites and talkshows is wrong? Unbelievable.
If I was Disney, I would take out a full page ad in Variety and major newspapers decrying the not-so-veiled threats by the Dems to squelch a film they feel is partisan.

Contact: Jim Manley or Rebecca Kirszner, 202-224-2939; both of the Office of Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid.
This appeared in the US Newswire letter. Has anyone called them to see if they were the ones who sent the letter? I just sent a headline that, "The Martians have invaded New Jersey", and it was accepted! Thank God they haven't published it but I'm wondering if a more plausible fraud might be accepted and published.
