I'm going to watch the full unedited version tonight (if I can stomach it).
Like I said last week, my problem with ABC showing the movie had nothing to do with my pro-Clinton or anti-Bush stance. It had to do with a "news organization" (which plays by different rules than "entertainment", especially during election time), using the public airwaves to disseminate fiction dressed up as truth. Period.
It's the government's hypocrisy that irks me. In this case, the FCC, which allows things like this to happen, while consistently overstepping its bounds to censor broadcasters for "obscenities". The FCC was crap under Clinton, and it's been crap under Bush. The pandering to the moral right is nothing new for the past several decades in both the Dems and the GOP.

From what I hear-
*The Bush administration does not get off the hook on this one.
*The main message is that gov't red tape and beauracracy caused alot of problems- that certain action should have been taken- and wasn't. That is factual.
*That the people you come away hating are the enemy- the terrorists who want to see us dead or converted.
Let us know- I will be interested to hear another opinion.
