9. Do nothing because he may be afraid of
hurting Hillary's presidential ambitions if he actually stands up to the Bushies. The Democrats let the swifties define the parameters of the debate in 2004, so why wouldn't Clinton let ABC and a bunch of fundamentalists define his presidency? The Clenis has been blamed for all sorts of things, why not 9/11?

10. Maybe Hillary will Reconsider
That assasination scene might change her mind. She does love Bill after all.

12. Can He Really Do Anything
I think he would try to schedule several interviews with journalists to debunk the movie point by point. I think he would ask people like Albright and Berger to do the same. The problem is, I don't know that he'd accomplish anything. First, as we can see the Reich Wing Media has a goal to re-write history, why would they allow little things like facts to interfere with their revisisionist theories? Next, let's face it, Clinton and Berger's credibility aren't the greatest now. I mean, Conswervative pundits would be sure to remind everyone about Clinton lying about sex. Never mind all the lies Dubya told, don't want the truth to interfere with revising history to suit their agenda. And of course, Berger made the horrible mistake of hiding those papers from the National Archives on his person and acting like they got there by accident. And as we all know, Republicans are honest and truthful.

Can't help thinking he's screwed on this one. It pisses me off and I don't know what to do.

13. I think he will sue their swarmy arses off.
But I don't think he'll do anything until after the show aires.

I also think the program will generate an enormous blow back of support for Hillary. This worked for her before when the rw bottom feeders targeted Bill over Monika. The fools never learn though.

Not being a big fan of Hillary, can't say I'm happy about this. However, I am aware that my feelings are softening toward her as this travesty of a film, again attacking her husband, is about to air. The Clintons will be able to use the inevitable reactions of outrage about the lies and defamations to their absolute advantage. ABC/Disney crooks will be embroiled in so many lawsuits they won't have the ability to respond effectively. I don't think even the extreme rw punditry will dare touch that hot potato either. The ones that do will become targets themselves. On the other hand, Democrats, especially Hillary, will have TRUTH on their side and can slam it to the Pukes over and over and over.

Just my two bits.

15. don't know, but
Edited on Sun Sep-10-06 08:21 AM by Jim4Wes
it will probably be either a lawsuit or just a continued effort to expose the lies via media appearances. If we take back Congress, I expect he will testify at some future hearings about irresponsible media coverage of political issues.

16. Suing ABC/Disney will do no good...
The nasties who perpetrated this filth were careful to use a 'throw-away' Director
(I'll ask again, why isn't he in Iraq? Other priorities?) and a 'throw-away'
production company, UHP.

By doing so, they've afforded themselves with plausible deniability. They'll cut'n run
as soon as this clinker hits the pan.

Meanwhile, N.O. is still broken and OBL is thumbing his frozen nose at us.

17. He will do nothing.
If it was possible for him to do anything, it would not have been shown.

18. I doubt that he files any suit and may do nothing at all -
- Berger and others might do something but I don't think Clinton will do anything. I doubt he wants a long, drawn out court case where he had to get on the stand and discuss the Lewinsky situation. Since that seems to be part of the problem with the movie, it would certainly be part of any court case. Doubt he would want that brought back up with Hillary possibly running.
