Excellent news piece showing the current administration. Long broadcast. Rumsfeld ignored the military's recommendations for 2-3 more times the number of troops for Iraq. Also their plan was to go straight to Baghdad. It think that is why we missed these and possibly other sites of WMD.

Today online at 12 noon!!!!!

Rumsfeld's War

The Choice 2004 is also good.

8. That was such a whitewash - W was nowhere to be seen

Rummy was somehow romanticized, and W - who was drooling for Iraq glories since at least 1999, was not involved (Woodwards version). Dismal for pre-election.

<snip>

With In Demand out of the picture, the owner of "Fahrenheit," Bob and Harvey Weinstein's Fellowship Adventure Group, has engineered a deal with Los Angeles-based TVN Entertainment to carry "Fahrenheit 9/11," with no extras, for two runs Monday at 8 and 11 p.m. ET (5 and 8 p.m. PT). TVN is in the business of delivering PPV movies and events to cable systems owned by a number of operators in the U.S., including Comcast and Charter.

<snip>

EchoStar is leaning strongly toward carrying the movie, although a company spokesman would say only that it has an affinity for pics that gross more than $100 million in U.S. multiplexes.

DirecTV also loves big-grossing theatricals, but a spokesman for the company said that it has passed on "Fahrenheit," adding that political considerations had nothing to do with the decision. (Rupert Murdoch, an outspoken conservative, runs DirecTV.)
