Cojones

Apparently "former Clinton administration officials" are telling ABC to pull their miniseries "The Path to 9/11". To which ABC responded:


"No one has seen the final version of the film, because the editing process is not yet complete, so criticisms of film specifics are premature and
irresponsible."

And this is why I will never survive in this world. I would not have the cojones to tell a former president that he's premature and irresponsible. Although that's probably a good summation of the Monica Lewinsky stained-dress thing. Don't get me wrong, I don't hate Clinton, but a good portion of his presidency dissolved into farce because of that.

Anyway, I like the part where one of the people who signed the letter was Sandy Berger. Wasn't he last seen stuffing paper down his pants? I guess it's a lucky thing this didn't end up there as well, or no one would know the angst these folks feel about their former boss.

So will ABC cave? Will they pull a CBS and shunt it off to a premium channel to take the heat off themselves? Stay tuned tomorrow for "As your stomach turns".

(PS - does anyone else find it funny that the same people who condemned pulling the Reagan series as censorship are now trying to do the same thing?)
