Funny that, since they seem to be waffling themselves between how ‘factual’ the mini-series is.

Who committed perjury while under oath? I was wondering why so many of these comments were posted BEFORE the docudrama even aired. Did they have a private showing?

It was excellent and I am glad to have gotten a chance to watch it in it's entirety. It neither blamed no one imparticular, just reflected on the problems that led up to the attack. I was really expecting a documentary like all these people were crying about and I expected to see more against Clinton and Bush themselves but it was none of the above. Thanks ABC for letting me make up my own mind about the movie, after all we are free to make our choices in this day and age and it's pathetic that so many have to be biased before they even see the movie. Again great job! I applaud ABC for a very good movie based on the 9/11 commission report. It was excellent and I am glad to have gotten a chance to watch it in it’s entirety.

Where I come from, this Robert A. Iger would be dragged through the streets in front of the tomb of our glorious leader Vladimir Lenin and shot in public. The producers, directors, writers and anyone associated with this propaganda would be picked up in the early hours of the morning by our State Security Chief Lavrenty Beria (The Black Hand) and taken to a Siberian labor camp never too be heard from again. For many years I have been loyal to ABC and the Pravda (truth) that our Socialist Liberal ally has put forth in order to progress our ultimate goal; the decline and absolute destruction of America and the capitalist traitorous pig’s like ABC. I ask you Mr. Robert A. Iger, “Have you no shame Sir”? Comrades, we must not give up the fight. It has taken us many years to groom you and your elected leaders. Remember what our great leader Nikita Khrushchev said: “ We can't expect the American People to jump from Capitalism to Communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving them small doses of Socialism, until they awaken one day to find that they have Communism " It’s more important now then ever before that we stand together and stay focused! We can not allow this abomination of propaganda to go forward. We must do whatever it takes to keep this film from airing on Sunday the 10th, 2006, we only have a few hours left. It is your duty as loyal Liberal Socialist Democrats to rise up in solidarity and put a stop to this immediately! Senator Harry Reid, one of our courageous and distinguished Senatorial leaders from the state of Nevada, reminded the capitalist traitorous pigs at ABC of their license from the FCC. Please Senator Reid, we’re your loyal comrades in arms and begging you to use all the glorious power you possess. You must stop this film! You must push forward with an iron fist and crush this despicable display of propaganda. If this film isn’t stopped from airing on ABC, Sunday night, I’m afraid all our efforts since the cold war and the aspirations of our great leaders from glorious years past and Nikita Khrushchev’s dreams and predictions will have been lost.

What he presented was a documentory, and what was in it was the truth. There is one hell of a difference between a biased movie that is depicting something as important as the 911 tragedy without any regard for the truth, and a low budget film that had to be produced out of the country because the Corperate media wouldn't do it. If there was anything in Farenheit 911 that wasn't the truth, Mike would have been buried in legal suits. Why don't they put this movie on Fox News, and leave it there for the folks who enjoy koolaide.

Funny how the liberal leftists, the Stalinists, the Clintonistas, the "progressives," the democrats are so quick to call Bush a liar when unproven allegations are made against him, but fail to possess the integrity to admit they were wrong, like when we found WMD's in Iraq. Funny how they will constantly state as if fact that, "the war on Iraq is unrelated to the war on terror," in spite of the fact that hundreds, perhaps thousands of Al Qaeda terrorists have been killed or capture in Iraq. Funny how the opposition party in this country sees the current administration, America, capitalism, the government, Christians, Jews and Israel as the enemy, and yet are seldomly critical and are often empathetic of the Islamists and terrorists who are, well, the enemy. Some questions to ponder - Why is it that dozens of people can be killed hundreds wounded in a car bomb in Baghdad but the main concern for the left in this country is giving constitutional protections to the terrorists we've captured in Guantanamo? Who's side are they on? Why is it the lefts "war heroes" support the war on terror, but are against the war? Support the troops yet call the marines terrorist? Call the terrorists freedom fighters? Are for homeland security but against the Patriot Act, foreign surveillance, CIA interrogations and "profiling"? Sometimes I think the democrats and the left in this country are their own worst enemy, but sometimes, I fear, they will wrest control of one or more branches of government again, and become -- our own worst enemy.

Bush was right. Kerry was right, too — before he was wrong:

“Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime … He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation … And now he is miscalculating America’s response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction … So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real..” -John F.
