Considering all the other crap that gets rushed to market, I can’t believe this has been withheld.

Are you aware that your link and your quote don’t support your assertion?

The frequency with which we see that kind of behavior may be some kind of hint as to the mindset of some people.

Here’s your first hint – “dramatize” means that this was a narrative movie and not a documentary – the linked interview NOWHERE suggests that facts were invented or suppressed for that purpose.

I saw this when it aired. Not only was it well made and stuck to the facts, but it was well acted as well, with some well-known actors in it. I definitely would purchase this on DVD.

Stuck to the facts? It seems to me that when even the guy in charge says he dramatized the events, sticking to the facts may be a bit of a stretch:

From Frontpagemag

Nowrasteh: This miniseries is not just about the tragedy and events of 9/11, it dramatizes “how we got there” going back 8 years to the first attack on the WTC and dealing with the Al Qaeda strikes against U.S. embassies and forces in the 90s, the political lead-up, the hatching of the terrorist plots, etc.

The book written by the guy carrying the nuclear football, who witnessed slick willy refusing to pull the trigger on usama 15 times is still available.

I definitely would purchase this on DVD.

I too would buy the DVD. I missed part of it and didn’t get to see it all, so I went to the web site to see if it was already offered on DVD.

I seem to recall it saying there that it was coming soon. I checked back quite a few times, then couldn’t get to the link anymore.

3 copies of the promo press release version are on ebay, for any who missed the broadcast.

It should be available on every major street corner in every major city for $5, just like every other film.

If 1959’s “Teenagers From Outer Space” is to be had for a buck at Wal-Mart, this feature should be on the shelves. too.

Now THAT phrase belongs in a history book!

Threatening Disney’s broadcast license

The way I see it, we’ve probably got rid of Hillary for now. And stuff like this makes getting rid of Clintons top priority.

What we’re getting in their place is probably ideologically more radical, but maybe it’s easier to be an ideological radical than it is an opportunistic weasel.

Anyway, long story short, Harvey Keitel demanded, and received as part of his contract, Swiss tshirts (or underwear…can’t remember which) in large quantities that had to be specially shipped from Switzerland.

Ah, celebrities.

Still, had this recorded on the PVR and then upgraded to HD and gave the SD PVR to the in-laws before I had a chance to watch it.

I’d give it a go on DVD.

I hope Tom Burelli is successful. I’d buy a copy.

Ditto.

She’s a Republican too, isn’t she?

Yes.

Yes, Patricia Heaton is a very talented actress. I agree, her performance was great.

She’s a Republican too, isn’t she? Regardless, it was a very good series.

Was this the movie with the gal who played the wife on Everyone Loves Raymond? If it is, she deserved an award for that performance. Pure Evil.

One of the scenes I remember the most is a shot of a protest/rally somewhere in the Middle East with a huge sign of President Clinton being burned and people chanting death to America or death to Clinton or something. Puts the lie to the assertion that we were loved all across the Middle East when Clinton was in office, and the animosity for us started only after President Bush took office.
