Without commercial interruption...?
The ABC TV mess, "The Path to 9/11" is being shown "without commercial interruption" mostly because one would wonder who woudl want to have their commercial enterprise associated with such a tawdry pseudo-docu-edu-tainment drama, BUT the truth is that the entire program IS one long ethos numbing commercial for the Republican Party!
The Path to 9/11.
I was very much on board with the idea of seeing the exposure of the collective irresponsibility that went on here before the attacks, whether done by Dems or Repubs or even the Green-Rainbow Party types lurking deep in the Defense Intelligence Agency.
Go see "United 93" instead! Seeing the utterly sad overload of an already stressed system is instructive, where the wants and needs of commercial airlines clashes with sane and rational regulation is a wake up call. Maybe one state run airline like El Al is where we should be - instead of having slack-jawed high school drop outs working for Argenbright Security at Logan Airport, we should have had something better... instead of a civil aviation system a slave to greedy and stupid commercial interests, we could have one dedicated to having real security? In the movie when an FAA official calls for the grounding of all planes in the air, someone says "That'll cost billions!" Oy vey!
