Path to 9/11:Clinton and his cronies want it censored
 

The ABC mini-series about events leading up to 9/11
http://www.cnn.com/2006/SHOWBIZ/TV/0...vie/index.html

What is he afraid of, that the truth about what happened during his administration?
How many chances he had to kill OBL but did not have the guts?
His legacy?

Can you imagine the uproar if GWB had complained about the series?
And you can bet they won't hold anything back in that respect so why should Clinton get any kid glove treatment?

It's just politics as usual

mm.. its not even supposed to be a documentary right? so I would understand the guy's concern as a lot of people will probably watch it as a documentary. Just look at the original poster.

It's a docudrama. Many people (as evident by the initial poster) will take it as fact. I would have serious problems if my name and "legacy" was dragged through the mud as well.

They already showed it on the BBC tonight but I didn't watch it.

I could have sworn that they (democrats) were upset because this is a mockumentary (or a docudrama) that combines some real information with a lot of dramatized scenes, with some of the scenes being completely fictional? This seems almost identical to the stuff that Michael Moore has been doing in his shitty movies.

The writer, Cyrus Nowrasteh (a very staunch Republican), stated at the very beginning "In my writing and directing, I don?t want to just be a conservative version of Michael Moore"? yet it seems vibrantly clear that Mr. Nowrasteh is doing EXACTLY what Moore is/has been doing lmao. Talking about the pot calling the kettle black.

I know its a dramatization, which seems if Clinton knows that whats he worried about?

Protect his legacy at all cost?
Its not a good one and not much of one so, big deal.

History channel already did a good portion of this with Target Bin Laden a few years ago. That got hidden quick too. Funny they dont like it when they bring facts to light of what Clinton really did.

Thats not all he said:
It sounds damming untll you read the statement in context.

GM: What do you think of Michael Moore?

CN: To quote Team America, he?s an out of control socialist weasel (laughs). Listen. I?m probably more of a libertarian than a strict conservative. In my writing and directing, I don?t want to just be a conservative version of Michael Moore. I?m here to tell a good story first and foremost - and that?s why I can navigate the networks and get my work produced.

5 years after the fact, what good does it do to "blame" Clinton... Peoples actions often look stupid in the light of hindsite. So seriously.. why now?

A lot of people will take it as fact (as indicated by the OP), and it will hurt Bill Clinton's image possibly. If I was being blamed for the biggest disaster ever (in US), when it wasn't my fault, I'd argue against the false claims too. :2 cents:

Any elections soon?:pimp

Actually in full context it makes him sound way.. WAY worse lmao. So he calls MM a control socialist weasel, dogging him (sure he?s using a movie quote to do it but it?s obvious what he thinks) then he goes around and does the SAME DAMN THING that Michael Moore does in his films lmao. In full context it shows just how much of a hypocritical jackass that guy truly is.

Michael Moore got a pass for shit that was clearly made the fuck up. ABC makes a DRAMA about 9/11 and gets shit from the Clinton camp? Give me a fucking break, it's so lame.

This is difficult.

o fuck may I laugh a lil louder then normal? How the FUCK can any government fuck up worse then the Bush admin? That's right, none. He already got impeached for letting his cock suck by some broad, and Bush never got shit for sending 1000's of soldiers to their deaths. This is truly too fucking funny.

Bush supporters, or any fucking government supporter, is a fucking SHEEP.

nope, it's not.

I disagree, but you are enttiled to your opinion as am I.
Michael Moore is a fuckin socialist who hates America, would not know the truth if it stared him in the face.
He gets off on humiliating people he disagrees with.

Cyrus at least uses the facts to base the series on, as put forth by the 9/11 commission. The Dems have been clammering to put their recommendations in to play. Now they're crying foul.

shining a spotlight on your ineptness is certainly different than having your "legacy" drug through the mud.

First, Moore didn't get a pass. He was vigorously attacked by the right for his movie. So much so that Bush's dad's investment group actually bought up a chain in theatres in the south so that it wouldn't show down there. Moore sparked a cottage industry of people that wrote books, started websites and made movies that slammed his film.

Second, this movie is supposedly a docudrama so it is based on true events, but has some fictionalized accounts in it. One of the executive producers on the movie is a republican governor that was part of the 9/11 commission and he himself said that much of it is not accurate. However, there are a lot of people out there that don't realize this. They will watch is and take it as fact. If it's me and there is a movie coming out based on some things I was involved in that was fiction and made me look bad you can bet that I would fight.

Lastly, this is politics as usual and I think it's no coincidence that this show is being broadcast two months before an election. A little while back there was a TV movie about Reagan that didn't paint him in a very good light and the republicans flipped out about it and eventually pressured the network to not air it. but now that Clinton is fighting something he doesn't like somehow that is bad.

to me this mini series is nothing more than a 4 hour election commercial. The repubs can say, " see how weak the democrats are on terrorism? We're better vote for us."

It's all pretty bad.

That said I think any docudrama shouldn't be made. Either make a fictional account of something or make a real factual documentary.

Clinton is the worst piece of shit to ever occupy the White House.

His legacy reaks.

I agree, Bush is much better.

I like you! :thumbsup :thumbsup

I noticed that too! Wow a thread that sees some light! :banana

Yes, we all know getting yout cock sucked by a girl is much worse then starting a world wide war based on lies. I'm sorry for not understanding that in the first place.

The Reagan miniseries is hardly a fair comparison.
I mean heres a guy who as President was respected by a huge amout of people all over the world, who was at the time that CBS wanted to air it in the throws of alzheimers.
That was stooping pretty low and they did the right thing by pulling it.

If he was able to defend himself it would be different story.

And it came out -- lies and all.

Let the ABC thing have the same courtesy -- at least it's BASED on truth, and not some conspiracy bullshit.

Do you make shit up as you go along? The reason the right wanted the Reagan miniseries pulled because it showed the Reagans for the way they really were a very dysfunctional family and they got it pulled. Those are facts unlike the 911 docudrama. Also for those who say MM makes shit up go to his site and he shows everything in his last film where he got it from and links to go to see it in the original form. They fuck with Michael because he hits a nerve if he was this wacko no one would care.

I sure do!

You have some good points in there, though.

No way. I didn't make it up.
From the CNN website
CBS believed it had ordered a love story about Ronald and Nancy Reagan with politics as a backdrop, but instead got a film that crossed the line into advocacy, said a network executive who spoke on the condition of anonymity.

Nothing new .. This administration and its henchmen re-write history to fit their goals ..
I suppose that it was Clinton that had a CIA memo in August 2001 about OBL and/or terrorists planing to highjack planes...

Dawn Bill :mad: :mad:

THe Albright passage about her warning the Pakistanis about an operation is a lie also ...

But the sheeps will be kept in a pac by the sheppard's dogs....

As has been stated numerous times its a docudrama, don't get your panties in a bunch.
Albright didn't but the Joint Chiefs of Staff did warn them.

.

Yep its a docudrama being promoted as fact and a documentary. The Clintons just want the untruths (stuff bended or made up for drama on tv) to be removed.

Same thing happened with the Regans story that took many liberties to make it interesting for tv. Some facts, a lot of non-facts for entertainement being promoted as fact.

So then why depict that it is her ???? any agenda there ???? Might as well say Bush was the leaker in the CIA case, even if not true...

BTW, who refused to put 600 troops in Tora Bora, as asked by the CIA operatives during the hunt for OBL ... ? Clinton ?

Yesterday night, on CNN, there was a 2 hour documentary ( with actual footage ... :1orglaugh ) on OBL ( tough they skipped the USA-OBL-Afghanistan situation ) ...
There were so many warnings of what was cooking on the back burner ....

Since when has Clinton cared about the truth?


The guy is practically in a vegetative state and they wanted to show something that had little to do with the truth or accuracy.
CBS even admiited it wasn't what they had in mind when they ordered the project.


.

you realize the reason why he came out and "blasted" them was because they are including things in the docu drama that are fictional and don't hold up to what actually happend on 9/11 he's not trying to censor the mini series....

it was on the news a few days ago and the studio released a statement saying that no one had seen the final cut and they would be making more changes to it in the days before the release of it...

i could see why he would want them to tell the truth about the day why blow smoke up the american peoples asses...? we all know what happend that day so why make things up just to make the docudrama "interesting"

bah not even going to watch that fucking garbage

Are you being sarcastic?

If not, you have what's called delusional disorder.

Regardless of the poltics, it just strikes me as odd that there is any need for a fictional 'docudrama' about 911. I would think the real stories are dramatic enough with out having to make more things up.

I agree about letting ABC having free reign to play it as I believe in free speech. On the same token, those who complain about it have full right as well because of it being a docudrama or a mockumentary. Your statement "at least it's BASED on truth" is quite fallacious however; most of content of the ABC show is either extremely dramatized or simply completely fictitious (as in made-up). The writer of the show, Cyrus Nowrasteh, is nothing more than the republican version of Michael Moore -- take whatever he says the same way as you would Moore.
