Comment on: I Believe

A miniseries with giant implications

Actually, his blog sent me. Anyway, I agree with you that the "Path to 9/11" miniseries had giant implications. I did a two part review of the film at my blog, but I will give you the bottom line on the film as a whole:

"... the film is definitely worth seeing. I don't think we should begrudge the producers for certain creative licenses taken (such as casting decisions or edits). The film's real value is that it puts a face on these events. After seeing the film, the terrorists and government officials are no longer a bunch of unfamiliar names and faces. We now have a feel for the people we have heard about: such as CIA agents working with the Northern Alliance, the general in charge of that alliance, Mohammed Atta, Ramzi Yousef, Khalid Sheik Mohammed, and even George Tenet, John O'Neill, Richard Clarke, etc.

Even if you don't believe everything as it was portrayed (such as the heroic efforts of Clarke), simply seeing the characters and events dramatized gives that conceptual framework that viewers can use to sort out what had been a huge number of details, events, decisions, and characters."

To that end, I think it is must-see.
As an aside, I read your bio. I hope you still are registered to vote in PA, Lynn Swann can use your vote (I'm voting abstentee myself).
