"The Path to 9/11"

[weswilson]

Let's take some bets...

How many of you think that the "fact oriented" conservatives who barbequed Michael Moore over his misstatements in "Farenheit 9/11" will come out to do the same for ABC's "The Path to 9/11"?

it's so noble of you to care anymore.

I chose the last response, because I distinguish very clearly between actual conservatives and the spendthrift, warmongering neocon horde in the executive branch. Full disclosure: I'm a radical libertarian, individualist, laissez-faire capitalist and constitutional strict constructionist.

But whatever. It was great seeing you and Wendy at Dragon*Con, Wes!

Well, since the manipulative sensationalist mainstream (read : liberal) media is the Great Satan to the neocons, I'm guessing #3 as to backlash content.
I saw Fahrenheit opening night here, and about 2/3 of the audience was African-American (a term I dislike, but employ as circumstances require).
I like Moore as a troublemaker, but think his writings are more engaging than his films.
I am greatly interested that true-blue old-school conservative commentators such as George Will and William Buckley have been so marginalized by the dragon's roar of the neo-cons. Will dislikes calling them conservatives, preferring the term "new radicals." In a very bad way.
The neo-cons' reaction to Oliver Stone's 9/11 film settled me on
the tempered #3 response. Especially since that's what liberals have been saying about Stone's ham-handed revisionist movies for years...
