The Pre-action to ABC’s 9-11 Movie

I think members of the Clinton administration made a mistake in attacking the ABC movie on 9-11 before it has been shown. It is understandable to react with outrage to lies and slander. However, one looks foolish and censorious doing so before the lies have come out into full public view. It sounds weak to say “I’ve heard this is claimed…” Let the claims come out, let ABC stand behind those words, then pummel them with the truth.

Lost in the furor is the bigger question: why and how is ABC presenting this movie without commercials? Who is paying for this — the RNC? Did Fox buy ABC and not mention it in a newscast? How is it that a good buddy of Ayatollah Limbaugh wrote the script? I’m not saying that people with strong views can’t express them through bad TV. However, we all know what Republicans would have done with an ABC movie written by Michael Moore. Democrats need to stop following the Republican playbook. Act differently from the Republicans — the country needs some sanity. mjh
