I'm sure the fact checking will parse the exact wording of each line of Democratic dialogue, while missing the point. Government leaders were more worried about their own careers than about the citizens they were charged to protect. The film does a great job of pointing that out. The only reason they spend more time on the Clinton administration is that he happened to be in office for more of those attacks. Perhaps if we worried more about doing the right thing, rather than what other people thought, the nation would be better off. I love you guys.

Yes its been dramatised, the makers were very up front about that -in order to get your message across you have to put it in a vehicle that people can consume - in this case a film. Remember though there is no smoke without fire, remember the scene where the CIA working with the Northern Alliance were in striking distnace of bin laden, and the decsion to take him was dodged - that administration had the chance and for whatever reason decided for political reasons not to go for it...if was American i'd be left with a bitter taste in my mouth let down by politicians more concerned with re-election than serving the people that put them in power.

So the question arises as to whom or what I am faithful to. The answer to that is that I swore an oath to defend the Constitiuon of the United States against enemies both foreign and domestic. I beleive that George W Bush is correct in his ideology concerning the war on terror and policies in Irag and the greater Middle East. I served my country heart and soul for twenty years.

The sad truth is that we are all victims of truth manipulation from both liberal and conservative points of view.

Let us all remember that it was the terrorists who killed innocent Americans, not Democrats or Republicans.

The real problem that this nation faces is the lack of focus on our common values and the exploitation of our disagreements to sell us a candidate or product (Political, Entertainment or service).

I watched Part 1 tonight. I though it was great. It showed a lot how the CIA, FBI, and the White House failed to work with their men on the ground going after these terrorist, and it showed their successes. Every day I am thankful that I did not join the military to go fight this war. The war is coming to us. It is here in out land. It is a mental war. A war I will not use a weapon in other than my words to try and keep sanity in peoples lives next to me. We all know our country will go through harder times still ahead.
