Clinton aide says 9/11 film 'correct'

[laylah]

(I am not sure about this source but the headline/story gave me a wtf! moment!) These bastards will stop at nothing!

A former military aide to President Clinton who claims he witnessed several missed opportunities to capture or kill Osama bin Laden says the producer of the ABC mini-series "The Path to 9/11" came to him in frustration after network executives under a heavy barrage of criticism from former administration officials began pressing for changes to the script.

*snip*

Patterson told WND he recognizes the television production conflates several events, but, in terms of conveying how the Clinton administration handled its opportunities to get bin Laden, it's "100 percent factually correct," he said.

1. World Nut Daily big whoop

"Everybody's got to calm down and watch the movie," Nowrasteh told WND.

19. This "everybody" will do no such thing.

Go fuck yourself, _Nowrasteh.

2. World Nut Daily isn't really a reliable source and either is Patterson

Patterson is also the author of "Dereliction of Duty" so he obviously has an extreme bias, IMO.

3. The source: Buzz Patterson, wingnut darling of the Radical Right

He's been flinging poo since before he left Mr. Clinton's employ. So this should come as no surprise.

6. Even if that's true, Bush could have had Bin Laden at Tora Bora,but

backed off,and this happened after 9/11 when we had just cause to go after him. Remember Clinton was not in office when so many innocent Americans where killed. Bush is deflecting his responsibility. His followers are afraid to look at the actual events and climate of this administration.We all must realize that what Clinton did or did not do is no excuse for the lousy job that Republicans have done since they have had almost total power. It does not serve our republic to ignore fact that our federal government must adhere to our established rule of law and not the whims of an infantile fearful populace. We have no time to rehash history. We must secure this world now against the bigotry, distrust, environmental misuse, and spiritual oppression of the Republican Party.

20. To the point. Our Republic must adhere to our Federal govt.

rule of law. No more excuses.

7. This is all a Rovian setup.

"Everybody's got to calm down and watch the movie," Nowrasteh told WND. "This is not an indictment of one president or another. The villains are the terrorists. This is a clarion bell for people to wake up and take notice."

Translation: Calm down and watch the movie so we can scare you half to death and remind you of the past, because the last thing we want you to do is pay attention to what's happening RIGHT NOW.


This article's sources are 4 military aides to Clinton. Only one would say his name, because he wrote a book smearing Clinton during a previous election cycle. The other 3 are apparently still in the military. Given what we've learned about unnamed sources, this story is based on the word of one of Clinton's many assistants over the years.

Now, do you want to believe him, or do you want to believe the 9/11 Commission?

[bowens43]

8. Fake but accurate?

[ShortnFiery]

9. Propaganda! Three words are key = World Net Daily eom

[radfringe]

10. it is correct on two points

1. it was 9-11-01
2. bush was p(R)esident

[liberal N proud]

11. Even if this is true - the fact remains bu$h was told and did nothing

bu$h was told about alQueda's intentions when they took office and they refused to listen and did nothing for 8 months.
Then once alQueda attacked, they went after the wrong man.

12. Oy...

Buzz Patterson and David Horowitz make a statement on Horowitz's site saying the "Path to 9/11" is 100% factually correct. :eyes: (the rolling eyes aren't for you, Laylah - you probably didn't know Buzz & David's history).

[laylah]

14. No, actually, I did not.

Thanks for the kind "heads up".

13. Shut up America

and watch the bull crap propaganda we feed you. You think things are tough now? It will continue to get worse. Your children will pay for the ruling elites' luxuries. So just shut up and take what your chosen leaders have set out for you. :sarcasm:

[Vickers]

15. A Lt. Colonel?!?!?!?! He wasn't a fucking aide to Clinton. He was an

aide to an aide to an aide to an aide of Clinton maybe.

Remember how they kept calling Lt. Colonel Ollie North a low level dude and they didn't even know what the hell he was doing?

Same goddam rank. :eyes:

[MoonRiver]

16. Wonder how that guy managed to slip past the 9/11 commission.

Probably in the same category of "witness" as the greasy palmed AK secret service, who claimed to "see" Clinton having affairs. :eyes:

17. It's always easy to find a traitor...if the price is right...

...and the RWingers are good at this sort of thing. Find someone to cast doubt and give them all the media access they need.

18. The whole thing is a set-up. Even the fact that junior is giving his

speech on Monday night, the night that ABC says that the heat will be on him for his part in 9-11. He has been on the networks blabbering all week long night and day, so there isn't really much left for him to say. You would think that on 9-11 he would give his speech during the hour of the anniversary to attract more attention to his political agenda. Waiting until the time that the ABC show comes on is only a ploy to distract people from anything on the "docudrama" that might put him in a bad light.

Otherwise he'd be in bed.

21. And Ruby Ridge is Clinton's fault too

This thread shows our problem, how quickly people fold at the very hint of opposition. Have we not learned YET that they will say anything and they will ALWAYS find somebody to back up their bullshit?? The Republicans undermined Clinton at every turn and that's what happened. Good for Clinton for not listening to PNAC cowboy 'diplomats', we see where their thinking gets us and it's not good.

22. One lying grunt

Let's only find disgruntled ass holes...

This is getting RIDICULOUS!

23. World Net Daily is the Tom Flocco of the right.. nt

[AtomicKitten]

24. The Rs are REALLY pounding the meme that Dems are weak on terror BS

This is it, kids. That's all they've got. Blaming Clinton for 9/11 absolves Junior in their opinion.
