History Is Being Rewritten As We Watch.......
ABC's Path to 9/11; all the talking heads on the news networks this a.m. - Rudy Guliani and Ari Fliesher recounting their role. Cheney and Rice yesterday on the Sunday shows.

I get a feeling that Rove is in a command center somewhere deep in the WH directing this effort - choreographing the rewrite.

I wonder how many people will be sucked down this 9/11 rabbit hole - be influenced by all this - and vote Repug again in Nov '06?

1. We didn't watch

My wife and I hadn't seen "Mr. Holland's Opus" and it was on last night. Much better choice I'm sure. I heard that Dubya is going to give a speech that might interrupt the broadcast tonight. My guess it will be during the part that shows where his administration screwed up.

2. No doubt Rove is involved, and we will be subjected to some
more incredible disinformation until Nov. 7th...that's how they play their game. They don't rely of facts or truth or their record, they have to lie and manipulate to get what they want. They've done it so well and so many times, welcome to the age of disinformation!

3. The MOST important WAR is being waged within our borders......
between the rethugliCONS and the Democrats. The issues are simple: Lies and Propaganda vs. Truth and Actual Facts; Fascist Dictatorship vs. Democracy and Freedom; Corrupt corporate america vs. the American Worker; Filthy Rich vs. The Rest Of US; Destruction and Disregard of the Environment vs. Environmental Conservation and Protection; Injustice vs. Justice; War vs. Peace; Evil vs. Good. History will NOT be kind to the fraudulent neocons of THIS CURRENT REGIME, regardless of how they attempt to rewrite history. Only the hardcore, mindless, self-serving, MINORITY IN NUMBERS base will follow them into the black hole and vote rethug again.

4. it will have had
zero effect.

much ado about nothing.

It's been really hard to watch this play out... I'm sorry, it reminds me of the Southern Baptists going over the edge about movies they don't like.

And there is the whole "a TV movie of the week is going to change thought!"

I understand it needs to be addressed, and Clinton and many others have done what was needed, but the middle is seeing all this mass hysteria and hand wringing and "I'm never going to Disney or watching ABC EVER again" the same way you did when the SB's said the same shit over Disney's Gay friendly policies.

It's all going to be a non-event as soon as you quit talking about it.

It's over, I promise... really it is... Not one single Democrat dropped out of the party last night over this TV movie and trust me... the independents are independents precisely because they don't listen to ANYBODY'S biased bullshit.

It's over, I promise... really it is...

Quit talking about it.

7. I'll take issue with one point --
independents listen to EVERYBODY'S bullshit, and give equal weight to it all, which is why they are so confused, easily swayed, and generally ignorant.

just saying.

6. No, they just think it's being rewritten the way they want it.
Football drew twice the viewer than that crapumentary did. And there is an article, and EXCELLENT article in the Guardian today about how all they sympathy and concern that the world felt of this country right after 911 was destroyed by this administration and its actions.
