Now that the White House and State Department have made clear that they believe movies compel terrorists to terrorize, it's time for them to get ahead of this problem. And one thing the White House can do immediately is to pressure Sony to stop the release of director Kathryn Bigelow's "Zero Dark Thirty," which celebrates the killing of Osama bin Laden.
I'm only saying this because, you know, the White House and the media told me movies inflame and cause terrorism.
Think about it: if the poorly produced and laughably bad trailer for "The Innocence of Muslims" results in chaos, murder, and the burning of foreign outposts all throughout the Middle East, how much rioting and mayhem is a big-budgeted, slickly produced, Oscar-bait blockbuster celebrating the death of the leader of al-Qaeda going to cause?
Moreover, an excuse Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will not be able to use in the case of "Zero Dark Thirty" (as she did with "Innocence of Muslims") is the cowardly and self-righteous claim that the federal government and the Obama White House had nothing to do with "Zero Dark Thirty."
Because the federal government and the Obama White House had everything to do with "Zero Dark Thirty."
As we now know, in an effort to get this glitzy in-kind contribution (tens of millions of dollars) up on the screen in time to affect the election, it was the Obama Administration that gave the filmmakers tons of encouragement and a troubling amount of access to all kinds of classified material.
But this very same Obama Administration has since learned that it wasn't the Obama Doctrine of disengaging with the Middle East and embracing the Muslim Brotherhood that caused all this mayhem and murder last week. It was a movie.

No. We should not ban any speech but it is good to notice how the “sensitive and tolerant” ones do a movie so Obama can brag about “killing Bin Laden.” They are full of it.
Interesting to note that the 0bama regime LEAKED THE NAMES OF THE SEALs INVOLVED IN THIS MISSION to the producers of this film and ARE NOW SUING TO PREVENT DISCLOSURE OF THEIR NAMES. Go figure.
White House Must Stop Sony from Releasing 'Killing bin Laden' Film
Really? What is going on?
Things sure have changed around here.
>> Why didn’t the government ever go after...
No scapegoat was necessary at the time.
Not only is scapegoating an American filmmaker, or any filmmaker, obscene, doing so at the expense of the 1st Amendment is especially egregious.
Notice the silence from Hollywood, ACLU, Congress, and the MSM regarding this attack on the 1st Amendment.
Imagine if Bush, while President, participated in the production of a film regarding the capture and trials of Saddam Hussein. The Left would have labeled him a low class douche bag.

But he didn't, so they couldn't, because he isn't. The same cannot be said of the douche bag who currently "occupies" the White House.
Where are the Dixie Chicks? I seem to recall they were very vocal about the “right” to mouth off and say anything they please.....
Just a way of getting people interested to see the film and remind them at every chance that Obama gave the Go order to kill Osama... eventually.... between rounds of golf.

Exactly.
Be sure, Mr.Obama, your sins (lies) will find you out.

I was wondering how they edit it now that the TRUTH about Bin Laden is known and how he died. He stuck his head through a door and took a couple of shots in the head, and never had time to grab a weapon even if he had wanted to. You know damn well the Hollywood version has him dying in a firefight with a machine gun in both hands and a machete in his teeth. LOL. The only people that will go see this liberal Hollywood garbage are die hard Obama dolts. I wouldn’t see it if it was being shown for free.
The almost entire cast of this piece of garbage are foreign actors. Even those playing US Navy Seals are not American actors.
A long time ago. It’s amazingly hard to get personal info on Hollyweird celebs. Money talks!
Anal retentive.
Sony has made its Campaign Contribution. They won’t be touched, unless odumbi needs more cash.
..thats seems to be the entire rat platform, since they used Turkish planes and Russian ships in their convention productions
