ABC 9-11 story yanked; replaced with Monica Lewinsky-Clinton phone sex recreation
Press Release–Hollywood-September 9, 2006
ABC Entertainment announced today that it has decided to pull its controversial film The Path to 9-11 in the wake of searing criticism from former Clinton administration officials who have yet to see the film. Former president Bill Clinton applauded the move saying that ABC made the, “right decision” and took “courageous action”, which he went on to compare to his relentless pursuit of Osama Bin Laden.
ABC also announced that a second film will replace The Path to 9-11. The new film, slated for airing next month, will be a two-part, four hour epic recreation of the dozens of phone sex calls between the president Bill Clinton and his intern, Monica Lewinsky.
The former president’s only complaint about the new film is that the part of Monica Lewinsky is being played by John Travolta.
Would the Clinton’s prefer this look at the administration’s legacy, or did that not happen either? This whole episode is an embarrassment.
ABC Gets More Pressure to Toss 9/11 Film
Former national security adviser Samuel R. Berger and former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, whose depictions are at the center of the controversy, asked Thomas Kean, the Republican ex-governor of New Jersey who led the commission looking into the attacks, to use his influence with filmmakers to pull it.
You can’t fix it,” Berger said on CNN. “You gotta yank it.”
Sandy Burglar (If the slacks don’t fit, you must admit) knows something about yanking it, after all it was he who yanked highly classified national security documents from the National Archives, by stuffing them down his pants, taking them home and then destroying them, all the while claiming it was an inadvertent mistake. Sandy Berger has tons of credibility on this topic. About as much as Paris Hilton doing a public service announcement for humility and abstinence.
This whole episode is tailor made for the blogosphere. On the left, righteous indignation that their boy Bubba would even have his legacy questioned. Don’t we understand that the 1990’s was an era of peace and prosperity?
On the right, Gateway Pundit offers up a reasonable theory for the white nuckle fear on display by the Clintonites over this movie.

NEW YORK (AP) — Capping an extraordinary conservative furor over a movie virtually no one has seen, CBS said Tuesday it will not air “The Reagans” and shunt it off to the Showtime cable network instead.
Based on snippets of the script that had leaked out in recent weeks, conservatives, including the son of the former president, accused CBS of distorting the legacy of Ronald Reagan.

The miniseries became a hot topic on talk radio and the TV news networks. The chairman of the Republican National Committee wrote to CBS President Leslie Moonves, asking for historians to review the movie, and the conservative Media Research Center asked advertisers to consider boycotting the film.
“This was a left-wing smear of one of the nation’s most beloved presidents and CBS got caught,” said Brent Bozell, founder of the Media Research Center.
Republican National Committee Chairman Ed Gillespie said putting the movie before a smaller audience on Showtime doesn’t address accuracy concerns. Without changes, Showtime should remind viewers every 10 minutes that the movie is fictional, he said.
The unplugging of Path to 9/11 is censorship at it’s finest. We’ll never watch the ABC network again. We all need to find a way to get this aired …and soon! the lefties are ruining our country, they talk the big talk about ‘choice’ and ‘tolerance’ all the while they do everything in their power to sabotage Truth!
Sabotage the truth and tell all the LIES they can over and over again until it becomes the truth….oh, yah, that sounds like what the Nazies did…Huh!!
