I don't really care about whether they drop the Scholastic bit. As for the Demagogue Party threatening ABC/Disney with FCC statutes, I think that is disgusting.

I wasn't aware that mass producing cheap copies of Calvin & Hobbes books counted as "high standards"

Does anyone have access to the lesson plans spiked by Scholastic? It would be great to disseminate them as widely as possible, especially since this episode shows lib censorship at its [best] worst.....

Scholastic decision made by a Democrat Activist with a long history giveing to Leftist Democrat Pols. Reason given are pure partisan propaganda without even a knodding aquentence with reality. This is what passes for "Education". If you got kids in a school you should be rining your local administrations phone off the hook.

Ziegler just played a clip of a Christian Amanpour-conducted CNN interview with Sandy Berger that confirmed one of the more controverisal scenes of the film. He confirmed they blinked when they heard there may be women and children in the vicinity of Osama at least one of the times they had an opportunity to kill him.

He's got clips to play of the docu-drama as well.

Six years of bashing Bush isn't enough for these people; they can't stand five hours of pointing out that the 9/11 conspirators didn't start their plan the day Bush entered the White House.

There are several here at FR...that says it's impossible at this late date to do any editing of this film. If they are saying they are doing this they are just appeasing the rat crowd....

Censoring learning material is pure and simple communism.

Funny stuff from John. All Clinton cared about was the size of his poll . . . . . . . . numbers.

Wonder if the writer is running late. Sounds to me Ziegler is stretching. He did say the writer was concerned for his safety after left wing activists posted his email and home address on line.

The movie, Wag the Dog, was broadcast (WB) this past weekend. It was interesting. It is a must-see, to see how 'news' can be manipulated for political purposes.

Clinton, "I never told anyone to lie...."

hahahaha

Remember the Cabinet members marching out onto the WH lawn to defend Clinton against the sex charges?
