So the ABC crapumentry was meant to set up Clinton weeks later?
Was that what it was all about and why ABC was so desperate to get it aired and in the classroom? So Disney and Fox are now chums?

1. For what purpose, dear?
It was meant to absolve the Republicans and taint the Democrats. Clinton is merely collateral damage.

8. For the purpose of trying to focus blame for 911 on Clinton and
not on Bush.

3. I actually saw the Disney Movie Pirates. Which was very critical about

corporations (Trading co. in the middle of the last millenium). Makes you wonder even more. If Disney did Pirates II... which made corporations evil & then does this "path to 9.11".
Makes one think there is no agenda at all with the corporation..just with the producers of the films. In which case polarized country makes for polarized products from corporations. That cannot be good?

4. It Was A Serious Artistic Endeavor By One Of Our Best
Young scriptwriters - the fact it appeared just months before the election & on ABC (All Bush's Cronies) Network was totally coincidental.

5. My guess is that


the movie would slam his administration and then fox would offer him time and he would be all contrite and apologetic.
Who would have thought, as I said earlier, that if you poke a Big Dawg with a stick and then let him out of his cage, he would bite you on the ass.
It wasn’t a very good plan.

12. Has me wondering; all the kool-aid drinking by the Big Dog lately
some sort of ruse, to sucker in someone like Fox. So he could unload like he did. People often forget Clinton is a Rhodes Scholar. Unlike Bush's Ivy MBA, I hear you have to EARN the title of Rhodes Scholar.

Hats off to our last officially elected President Bill Clinton! :toast:

6. If so, looks like it backfired on them. I really think that Clinton got
the better of Wallace and faux nooze, hence all the spin currently going on. Just my humble opinion.

7. I doubt that was the plan. Wallace just took advantage of the opportunity

plan things well in advance. I think it is Bush who throws a monkeywrench in their plans, because of his huge failure rate.

11. I wonder what stage III is for the October Surprise.
Too bad for them, Clinton didn't play their game! HAHA! Big Dog didn't just get his nickname for no reason.

13. Yeppers.. It was to revive the anti-Clinton rhetoric.. It's a Trifecta
1. shifts the blame from junior
2. defuses Clinton help for dem candidates (questions to him use up all the oxygen, so candidates may not want him around)
3. reignites the clinton=bad connection (hits Hillary)
