I didn't think it was nearly this many. I just assumed that it was just Rush and a few of his buddies

1. Can anyone at least make a GUESS as to...
..what their reasoning was to send it to only rightwing, conservative groups?

WHAT WAS THE REASON FOR THAT ???

Even (R) William Cohen, Former Defense Secretary under Clinton (who is pissed about it) said he wasn't privy to a copy.

What are the hunches on WHY they selected the people they did?

3. reasoning?
What do you think the reasoning was?

Why did they only have Keane as a consultant from the 9/11 commission, when the 9/11 commission was famously bi-partisan.

I want to hear from Lee Hamilton to see if he was ever asked to help out?

4. Actually, both are right ... Rush was given one copy, and
899 right-wing media outlets and bloggers were given Rush's review to put their names on and astroturf .....

6. This makes sense. Bang the "DEMOCRATS ARE WEAK" drum over & over
In order to retain control of Congress the Republican base has to turn out en mass and they have to convince a growing number of skeptical swing voters that a Democratic Congress would be a disaster.

The one thing that gets them rabid screaming mad is Bill Clinton. This film shows a feckless Democratic adminstration failing to face a growing terrorist threat.

It shows their worst suspicions in bold easy to digest form.

If this came from the GOP no one would listen but it's entertainment from a "respectable" main stream media source. Right wing nutcases hate the MSM. They trust Limbaugh and the RW bloggers. If Rush says it's OK then by golly this must be telling the truth.
