Here's my cynical prediction about Path to 9/11.
1. The movie will air.

2. It will be worse than we thought.

3. 65,000 of the 94,000 DUers will be watching it, even though we all have said we wouldn't.

4. There will be at least 250 threads about content in the movie both nights.

We DUers are gluttons for punishment. We will all make a pledge that we won't watch the crap-u-drama but when the time comes we will have our eyes glued to it.

1. not me
I haven't had ABC for 8 years. Direct TV won't let me have it and I won't pay the extra for it.

3. hell no I won't watch it. I encourage all DUers to dust off their copy of
F9/11 and watch THAT instead (unless they already have 9/11 Press for Truth - I am waiting for it to arrive)

4. I think your #3 and #4 are correct

If they don't pull it tomorrow then it's over, but a lot of pressure is building.

Will it be worse than we thought? Maybe they'll throw us a bone or two in the movie. I don't know.

You are right about your third and fourth points. Some people here insist on giving a full play by play every time Bush gives a speech or appears on live TV. Why? Just ignore him. He still has a legitimacy problem from the 2000 election, which I still cannot get over. I'll be watching movies on the Encore channel, and avoiding DU.

10. Uh, folks... Simpsons, Family Guy, and American Dad are on
on Sunday.... I know folks don't like all of them...but me? I'll be having a grand old time.

I separate Faux and Fox when it comes to those shows.

12. i will be taping it and will watch it.
if memory serves, there was a lot of complaining about righties blasting farenheit 9/11, without them ever seeing it.
