The Path to STFU
I’m pretty damn pissed off that my fellow Americans want so badly to place the blame for 9/11 on other fellow Americans. I have seen many posts about the worthless mini-series on ABC, the Path to 9/11. Congratulations. Wow! Finally we get to stick it to Clinton.
I’m not really interested in watching a reverse of Miq al-Mo’ore’s movie Farenhate America 9/11. It offends me that anyone would revel in blaming the President, past or present, for something that was done by savages, bent on our destruction. What’s the difference between saying that we had it coming because of the “hegemony” of the world’s “hyperpower,” or because the Clinton Administration dropped the ball?
Get one thing straight; it’s the terrorists that did this. They did it because we are not Muslim enough for their fascist worldview. They want to do it again, and again. Blame them! Don’t you dare blame Americans.
The 9/11 commission, which the mini-series claims to be based on, was a joke. A sick joke at that. Do we need to understand where we perhaps could have stopped it before it happened? Yes, of course. Did we need the pompous, showboating that was the 9/11 commission. No. Hell no.
You people that are gleefully chortling about how this stupid tv show “indicts” the Clinton Administration are no better than the idiots that fawned, and swooned, and lined up to be the first or best to fellate, whatever the douchebag’s name was that apologized for 9/11. “Oh, how noble of him. Now I can finally feel closure that an administration official apologized. You know, Bush still has never apologized.”
Bite me! I’m sure that you can find out, with a quick internet search, who it was that was responsible for the attacks that happened on a Tuesday, five years ago this day. I’m sure that someone, somewhere has mentioned what specific broad strata of society of varying ethnic and financial backgrounds the attackers came from. Look it up. I suggest searching the term, “9/11 hijackers.”
Someone has to have mentioned it somewhere in between blaming the Chimperor, blaming the BushCheney-Roviburton-Warforoiluminati-ZionistConspiracy, and blaming the Clinton Administration. Someone must know who is the real responsible party.
Thank Hell we have a few sane minded folks among us, like Born Again Reneck, and RichJ.

While in the waiting room at the doctor’s office today, I asked permission to turn the television on so I could see some of the memorials that were being held today in honor of the victims.
Sitting next to me was a very hippish woman who was probably in early 60′s. A scene had just been shown on the tv when the first tower collapsed and people were running everywhere.
Her comment – look at all those idiots running that voted for Bush, and all the other ones inside the building that voted for him too. They could have prevented this.
I said, “Excuse me? Lady, have some respect for those that lost their lives. I don’t want to hear your commentary. This isn’t about YOU – it’s about 2996 who died at the hands of TERRORISTS.”
With that I got up and moved to another seat.
I never wanted to hit someone as much as I did that POS in the doc’s office today.
Ingrate.

The Islamofascists are the only ones to blame. Clinton and Bush can be faulted for being blind to the threat, but they are not the enemy. Hindsight is 20/20. I’m pretty sick of the political bullshit blame game.

I know that you are always right, but I didn’t think the movie was all that bad. In fact, I kind of liked it. I expected it to be some “blame game” thing, but as it turns out, it wasn’t really that at all. I thought they did a great job of showing how the terrorist Muslims work/worked. They weren’t sympathetic towards them at all (which I expected).
As far as the blame Clinton crap, I didn’t really take it that way. I mostly just thought they were confirming bullshit about politics that we all already know, and that is that there aren’t any politicians that are going to grow some nuts and start killing terrorists in fear that their approval rating will drop.
I also thought that it underscored one great fact that I never really thought about before, and that is the timeline. This started well before Bush came into office. It wasn’t Clintons’ fault, or Bush’s, but I thought that it was very important to note that these Islamic terrorists have been planning to destroy evil America for a long time. As Kate noted above, there really are people that think that if Bush hadn’t been in office that this would not have happened. Nothing could be further from the truth.
We’ve seen several different 9/11 movies over the last few years, but this one seemed to have a different perspective. Like rich, I too am “pretty sick of the political bullshit blame game,” but I don’t think that was the goal of this movie. Of course, I’ve only seen half of it, so tonight could change my opinion drastically.

There was something on last night other than football? Hm, I must’ve missed it. I saw Eli Manning fumble that hand-off to Tikki Barber though.

Yep, no one would have watched if the Dems would have STFU about it. As a general rule, made for TV movies are usually crap. I am sure a fact based documentary will show up on the History Channel soon enough covering the same set of facts. I’ll watch that one.

Well, it’ll be a cold day in hell before I miss a football game to watch some “docu-drama” fake but accurate depiction of history.
Seriously though, the only thing that pissed me off about the whole thing was when that gaggle of congresspricks wrote a letter to Disney about how they were violating the parameters of their broadcastng license. That pissed me off, but I don’t give two shits about the contents of that TV turd.

I have got to throw my chip in with von, on this one. All the hooplah actually tempted me to watch it, after the Pats game of course. When I hear all the amplified outrage, pouring from the Clinton crowd, over this generally anti-government bureaucracy film, I can only come to a single conclusion. There is nothing that brings out the rabid paranoia in a politician, like a guilty conscience. If they had taken the STFU advice you describe, there would be no microscope, pointing at this film.

Whew! I thought I was the only one who felt that it was just another excuse for ABC to stick it to Americans.
