The comeback kid . . . has his own "made for TV" mini-series
By Kaye Grogan

The Democrats always want you to believe that they are straight-shooters — unless of course the pistol is aimed at them, then they want those who couldn't hit the side of a barn door if their life depended on it, pulling the trigger.

When the shoe is on the other foot, the Democrats start getting bunions — raising cane and demanding that their good name and image be restored. What good name? — and forget the image altogether.

Poor babies are upset because the missteps of their hero and God Bill Clinton — have come back to bite them in the backside. "Forget about the comeback kid, we just wish he would go away!" — is probably what a lot of loyalists are saying by now. But guys, remember many of you are touting that Clinton is the most popular politician in the world, so shouldn't he have his own movie and Oscar?

But you can relax now. Oh, what little faith you have. Go out and get yourselves a mustard seed to boost your lagging faith. Surely, you had to know that ABC would come through for you guys and gals. After all, if you look bad — so do they.

There are just some things the people are not supposed to know, and incompetency is certainly high on the list, especially if it involves a Democrat.

When it comes to politics, the image means everything you know. And being biased is certainly not allowed on any "made for television" movie or documentary if it means exposing or divulging the truth, no matter how much the truth is supposed to set one free, unless the star or cast mates are on the other side of the aisle.

Shucks! — I went out and bought several microwavable packages of popcorn, and two liters of soda, in anticipation of the upcoming "Path to 9/11" movie set to air on Sunday night. Now, I'm not going to waste my valuable time trying to watch a censored or botched up film.

What would we do in this world without killjoys? Instead of the Clinton Administration taking top-billing in the movie for lax security that probably led up to the worst attack on American soil to date — the Democrats want to share the limelight with the Bush Administration. Better yet — they would like for President Bush and his administration to take over the starring roles.

I am disappointed to hear that a scene depicting Sandy Berger advising then President Clinton to decline the offer to capture or kill Osama binLaden is in the movie. Watching Berger stuffing his socks with sensitive 9/11 documents would have been a lot more entertaining and accurate.

Executive producer Marc Platt is assuring everyone that if they feel like they have been wrongly portrayed in the movie, it was not his intention for the project to be either politically motivated — or to show personal points of view. Is he for real?

The very idea that the movie producers would use public records as the deciding factor to make sure they were being as close to the actual facts as possible when composing the movie. Don't they know that the facts have to be spun by public relation news hounds for Democrats — before they get the green light for "lights — camera — and action?"

Hopefully, there won't be any more of "those who wish to change history" folks viewing a similar political movie in the future before it airs.

And that's just my opinion!
