The Republican Lie Machine Warms Up... Against Clinton
The point behind this is so blatant and so disgusting that I want to smack somebody upside the head.
In a nutshell: ABC is going to air a "docudrama" about the events leading up to September 11, 2001. This made-for misrepresents the 9/11 Commission Report, makes the Bush Administration look way more competent than they actually proved to be, and -- most tellingly, most importantly, most damningly -- falsely blames Bill Clinton for letting Osama bin Laden get away.
So, y'see, Chimpy is really a big fuckin' hero. It's all Clinton.
I almost want to bypass the unspeakable hypocrisy, the blatant attempt at creating political cover out of whole cloth, the reeking desperation of their trying to rewrite reality so their incompetent moron of a front man looks like something other than an incompetent moron, and just laugh at the pathological hatred of a man six years out of office.
If you have friends or family members who hear about this, tell them: It's a pack of lies. It's wrong, top to bottom, trying to throw the blame on Bill Clinton for things that happened on Bush's watch, things that Clinton tried to warn them about, things they wouldn't listen to because he was Bill Clinton.
I swear to Cthulhu, if these shitheads spent a tenth of the time they spend propagandizing in actual governing instead, things would be much better.
Update: Rep. Louise Slaughter weighs in.
