Oliver Stone is making his most ambitious stab at American history yet.
The controversial director is creating a 10-part documentary series for Showtime titled "Secret History of America."
Narrated by Stone, the series promises to focus on events that "at the time went under-reported, but crucially shaped America's unique and complex history of the last 60 years," according to Showtime.

Stone produces more bombs than the Taliban.
No, it will be more fake history from a leftist nut.
“Make Mine Freedom!” 1948 cartoon about saving the American dream!

And then there was the time we blew up the world
It’s going to report on Saul Alinksy?
The Verona Papers?
The corruption evident on LBJ’s White House tapes?
Please tell...
Venona Papers and Saul Alinsky.
Typos. Always something.
I think a better title is probably “Oliver Stones Made-Up History of America”.
The Verona Papers?
The corruption evident on LBJ’s White House tapes?
The attempts of the Democrat Party throughout the mide 1840's-50's to allow slavery to expand into newly formed territories of the Union?
And in the next paragraph, they say it'll cover the world since the collapse of Communism in the 1980s. We defeated the Soviet Union but the threat of Communism in this world remains.
And Stone licks the boots of Communist dictators.
Maybe we could find someone from American Idol to host it.

The comments were pretty damning. At what point did Stone ever consider himself a serious, or even a credible historian? Each of the events he’s chosen fits closely into the Imperialist America narrative he’s been selling with decreasing success over the years. I can’t wait to miss the series.
They were insurgents. The Left loves insurgents who resent being conquored. They made the Civil War last another 100 years. Abraham Lincoln was wrong to declare “mission accomplished”.

Not to be confused with “History of the World: Part I”.
Cast:
* Will Smith as "Benny", the mixed-race Manchurian Candidate running for President
* John Ratzenburger as "Moe", the bumbling, well-meaning, completely wrong, gaffe-prone VP
* Robert Downey, Jr as "Bahm", the Jewish political strategist who sends dead fish to political opponents
* Tom Cruise as the inventor of Astro-Turf political movements (reviving his type-cast roll in "Tropic Thunder") who has to edit out four-letter words before loading the Teleprompter for the candidate
* Omarosa Manigault Stallworth as Rochelle, the America-hating wife of the candidate
* Joe Pesci as "Jerry", the social gadfly, gay, drug provider who 'entertains' the candidate in a limo while the candidate held state office prior to running for President.
* Forest Whitaker as the mean spirited, America-hating, liberation-theology-based pastor of the candidate's church
* Jamie Foxx as the gay choir director mysteriously killed for "knowing too much" about the candidate's private life on the down-low
* Playing themselves, many media anchors and talking heads will make cameo appearances as they transform from cheerleaders for the candidate to cheerleaders and propagandists for the President as he enters office. Several were screened to make sure their legs tingled well enough for the big screen
Coming to you, hopefully before the 2012 election cycle.
...with a hatchet, no doubt.
