#1 Does anyone else recall that Walt was the single largest private contributor to the John Birch Society?

#2 Signed by the political heirs of J. Stalin. If the pubs were doing this the media would be in a total open rebellion. They will say notihng and cave in and once again the Democratic party will show it's anti-democratic, anti-free speech and anti-liberty.

#3 I'm sure these a$$hats pay such close attention to each and every show that is about to be broadcast. Otherwise it would be discrimination, and that would be unethical. And because these a$$hats are so ethical, they get to judge.

#4 Does anyone else recall that Walt was the single largest private contributor to the John Birch Society?

He's been dead for thirty freaking years.

#5 What SPoD said. These are the political heirs of Joseph Stalin, totalitarians all; and if they are ever allowed to regain power we will see a crackdown on free speech the likes of which we now only hear about in third-world dictatorships, with the government shutting down opposition newspapers, radio stations and web sites.

Web sites like this one.

Want to know what the Democrats' vision of a perfect America-- and perfect American government-- looks like? Look at the People's Republic of China. THAT is what they have planned for us.

I suspect that "Tree of Liberty" is going to have to be watered again before too long.

#6 But Farinfart 9/11 was ok right? And so was Bowling for Bullshit?

This needs to be distrubuted far-and-wide as an example of real censorship.

#7 "Free speech for me, but not for thee!"

Motto of the Democratic party.
Also see:

"Do as I say, not as I do."

#8 If they don't support democracy in Iraq, why have you assumed they support democracy in America?

From the party to put "People", "Democratic", and "Republic" back into the name of the The Peoples Democratic Republic of America, PDRA.

It's all about Power. Damn the Constitution, full speed ahead.

#9 Mr. Robert A. Iger
President and CEO
The Walt Disney Company
500 South Buena Vista Street
Burbank CA 91521

If we don't take time out and send a letter (FedEx today) to Mr. Iger, then we're just paying lip service to our ideals. ("Yes, mother . . . " ) But, seriously. Business is the bottom line, and if they feel threatened, we should communicate that we support their commitment to airing what they want and not becoming puppets of the Democratic Party.

You can also send an email. ABC.com, then shows, then specials, then Road to 9-11, then you can find the link through the FAQ at the bottom of the page, under the question: How do I contact the ABC Television Network?, then click on Audience Relations department in the copy above the address .

or just go here

(818) 460-7477 ABC contact phone number (not toll-free)

Note: Better not to blab and blab in a partisan way. Letting them know you will be watching and appreciate the time, money, and research they put into the project, will go a long way. They've already edited some of the original material out.

#10 The Dems have now officially provided the Reps their Zimmerman Telegram moment. If the Reps don't take this and run with it for the fall, then they themselves are not really committed to holding public office. It's as a real threat to America as anything Al Qaeda is.

#11 If I ran ABC, I would say I edited some material out, but that would be a lie. A lie to let the donkeys think that they had influence. If they ever regain power in America, they will have the power, but I really can't see a turn around coming. I do see the donkeys losing more seats and losing by about 10 percent in 2008 and fading, fading, fading.
Why ? No ideas to solve America's problems, only complaints and standing in the schoolhouse door.
I submit, today they stand shoulder to shoulder for what ? To protect their stainmaker leader Willy. If that doesn't describe a lost cause, what does ?

#12 My how the truth sometimes hurts! But for them to openly communicate a threat or retaliation is amazing, even for the donks. It must be really damaging, oh I can't wait.

#13 These people have no soul. Don't be surprised if ABC cancels the show at the last minute, or at least "allows a dem response" to be aired before or after.

#14 Actually, ABC should give this note to their marketing people.

"This is the story that Washington doesn't want you to see....."

#15 Countless reports from experts on 9/11 who have viewed the program ...

How many people have pre-viewed this program? And how many of those folks are "experts on 9/11"?

I'm guessing it wouldn't be *that* hard to count.

Seems to me that someone's not very good at math ... and is a little crabby because of it ...

;-)

#16 “Furthermore, the manner in which this program has been developed, funded, and advertised suggests a partisan bent…”

The genre of “Docu-dramas” has allowed creative tools such as “time compression” and “composite characters” and even “Historical Interpretation” to be acceptable. However, there should be zero tolerance to depict proven historical events in a factually inaccurate fashion. Furthermore, the people associated with those events are justified in their objections if they are indeed portrayed in an erroneous manner. Unfortunately directors such as Spielberg, Moore, and Spike Lee have not only set precedents but have won awards and accolades from their peers.
Naturally the grandstanders that signed this letter didn’t complain of intellectual dishonesty when depictions of their political opponents were proven to be flawed or even out right lies. These perception-whores have once again exposed themselves as the party of hypocracy.

#21 One more reason why I will never EVER vote Dem again. I may not always vote Rep, but I won't vote Dem even for dogcatcher. If they gain power in the mid-terms, God help us all.
