Patriot Act Ad To Air During ‘24′

The ad has Debra Burlingame, sister of Charles Burlingame who was a pilot of one of the planes that hit the Pentagon, telling us how important it is to renew the Patriot Act.

:wtf:

1. Question, Is "24" just right wing propaganda from Fox...

used to intill fear into the populace? It looks like it.

[democrat_patriot]

5. Yes.

Promotes fear.

Promotes torture to extract information.

Promotes illegal activities all in thename of keeping us safe.

[mattclearing]

7. Promotes notion of a black Democratic President.

Depicts a Nixonian nutcase. Shows a MIHOP for Oil.

24's politics cut both ways.

[smartvoter]

10. This is correct. And the black pres was Dem and a strong leader. nt

[mattclearing]

6. Nah.

Politics go back and forth. It started off with the first black president in office, but last year it justified torturing anti-war activists. This year it has the White House initiating a terrorist strike on the U.S. in order to get oil.

8. I watch 24 and love it. But then I am not freaking out about the man

in the caves... nt

11. Did you watch last nights episode? It sure wasn't propaganda (Spoiler)

The wussy president's chief of staff aided terrorists in order to plant bio WMD's in a terrorist camp to prove the need for the U.S. to go to war against the terrorists and the country they were in for oil. And to hide the info that had leaked they assasinated the former Democratic President Palmer.

Wussy president on finding out initially went along with his chief of staff till Jack Bauer showed up and beat the crap out of the chief of staff to get the info where the bio WMDs were.

Being a fictional show, of course the terrorists had tricked the chief of staff and the bio weapons were gone and apparently set to go off in the U.S.

A couple of seasons ago they actually had a coup against the president by his people.

Yeah 24 is a bit heavy on the torture, but I assure you it's not RW propaganda.

12. Just started watching season 4, and so far

it looks like an RNC commercial.

Sounds like season 5 is better?

I skipped season 3, couldn't stand the daughter.

2. Patriot Act ads? WTF?

[BOSSHOG]

3. People who support the patriot act

know nothing of Security, Liberty and the Law. "Conservatives" in this country are our constitution's number one enemy. I'm sorry for Mrs Burlingame's loss but she is totally fucking wrong on this issue as are most "conservatives" on most issues.

4. I'll bet they REFUSE to air and ad against the UnPatriot Act.

eom.
