PATH TO 911: Is it possible that the rewrite is happening....
because the former clinton admin folks have said "If you show this we will do a talking heads circuit, complete with documented evidence, that will insure that no candidate from the GOP can get elected to ANYTHING.... including county seat dog catcher."


I mean we have to have SOME aces up our sleeves....

1. Iger & Co. is working hard on the cutting floor
furiously consulting with the principal characters and key witnesses for historical accuracy.

Somehow I still can't visualize it.

9. The long and winding Path to 9/11
Well, could not we go further back in our time machine and ask:
What the hell did George Bush I do to stop Osama? I mean why not do that? He had the whole middle east in his grubby little hands back in 1991, so why not take Osama out right then either?

Now HERE is a concept for y'all,

It has struck me that this "non-issue" (really if you think about all the treason this admin is doing, this is a non-issue) is REALLY the DLC re-asserting itself as the controller of ALL things Democrat.
I mean it is all a Clinton (+administration) face saving thing that now supposedly ALL good Dems come to the aid of their "fearless leader." Well, it really is sapping our "momentum" on other more important issues, and the corporate controlled DLC KNOWS THAT.

So, I have stayed outside the blogosphere on this one, except for the few phone calls to ABC radio to gnash my teeth on the air, with the likes of Levin (the Zionist) and the new idiot (Jerry) last night taking over Laura Ingram's 8-10 slot in the NY ABC market.

Screw Disney and ABC, they were the next to fall to the nazis after Fox anyway, everyone knew that. I believe that ABC is also stirring the pot to get all good Dems back into the DLC fold, as Hilary was starting to get REALLY antsy at the calls to debate Tasini and with Lamont, and the Screw the DLC push happening as of late, I feel this is the motive for the over-hype of this non-issue.

This all just another Corporate-control of our sense of "what is important."

2. In the end, cuts or no cuts, the talking point now is
Edited on Sat Sep-09-06 08:06 AM by Solly Mack
"The Liberals bullied ABC into taking the truth out of Path to 911"

"Liberals don't like free speech"

"Liberals are afraid of the truth"

It's not exactly hard to see the talking points coming. It's not exactly as if the controversy wasn't already taken into account with the promotion of the hit piece...ABC knew people would be outraged...and they also knew they would use that outrage over their lies to further promote their construction of reality.

Even if ABC were to edit absolutely nothing out of the hit piece, right wingers would claim they did.

They'll use the hit piece to promote the reality they want...and they'll use the outrage to do it as well.

7. I think you are dead on.
It looks to me at this that that however this thing goes at this point it works to the advantage of the administration. Rush was ranting for the last two days about censorship, like they didn't out and out kill the Ron and Nancy film.

8. I think all of it..Bush's torture speeches, the hit piece, the speech
during the hit piece...UBL tape released...well run campaign of fear and reality shaping...and to top it off...911 anniversary media blitz coming up

All of it overshadows the Saddam no connection to UBL/AlQ news release from official Senate reports.....because it's the emotion that will appeal to the majority of people...not the reason.

11. Yep, these people know no bounds when it comes to
exerting their raw political power. Terri Schiavo proved that to me.

3. I can't see how they could possibly edit it enough to be accurate
with what little time they have left before airing on Sunday. They are just giving lip service to those telling them that they are editing the film.

Nothing short of pulling the film will be justice to the truth

6. you can't "fix it" in the edit
it;s the writing... it's the casting... it's the directing...
it's the whole premise
it's plainly reich wing agitprop and innuendo
and it should be ridiculed for being exactly that

10. The Rewrite Of History About 9/11 And The Lead Up Began Moments....
after the towers were hit and have been going on ever since. Remember 'My Pet Goat'; where's the pResident as he was flying all over the country; Cheney's role; the first 9/11 Commission head Henri Kissinger; the final 9/11 Commission report, etc, etc, etc.

Yes - folks - the rewrite began immediately. It had to - the cover-up needed to be put into place as soon after the event as possible. How else would they be able to get away with the most blatant heinous crime ever.

12. I imagine the rewrites to come out like a dubbed foreign movie.
The Clinton, Berger, and Albright characters will be mouthing words that won't match the audio. It should be hilarious!

13. If Cunningham doesn't resign in a howling hissy fit. . . .
the changes will not have been significant. (And since his Dad's organization funded the whole damn thing, that's not likely.)
