Preserving the Clinton Legacy at All Costs

From the accounts I've read, "The Path to 9/11" is billed as an unbiased, critical look at the years leading up to 9/11. That appears to include major missteps by the Clinton administration in the mid and late 90s.

The braintrust at Democratic Underground is concerned that establishing Clinton's weakness on terrorism will hurt the party in the mid-term elections. To combat that, they intend to do everything in their power to make sure the truth gets muddled in an organized effort to mislead the voting public:

To counteract the effects the ABC 9-11 movie could have on the midterm elections, I recommend this course of action:

The night of, and the morning after, people will be hitting the internet looking for information on the events as depicted in this movie.

Our biggest opportunity will be to have nearly identical blog posts waiting, then submit them to be found internet wide the morning after the movie. Google and Technorati will pick up on these posts quickly. We can make these entries dominate the first several pages of the search engines.

MAKE SURE THE POST TITLE HAS THE TITLE OF THE MOVIE IN IT!

Get every Democratic friendly blog on board as possible... you e-mail the ones you know, they'll e-mail the ones they know, etc. Make SURE these blogs are on the Technorati network and have also been submitted to Google's blog search.

For one day, change the title of your blog to the title of the movie.

Agree on a clear, detailed, and sourced body of information -- I've seen several examples on DU lately disputing what is in the movie. Media Matters has one. One was posted today on DU by Richard Clarke.

Everyone post it. Right after the movie is over or the next morning at the latest.

MAKE SURE THE POST TITLE HAS THE TITLE OF THE MOVIE IN IT!

DU JOURNALS WILL ALSO WORK! They're indexed in Technorati! To use DU journals for this, the admins will need to allow a forum for everyone who want to to post and almost identical post with facts concerning intelligence failures leading up to 9/11.

MAKE SURE THE POST TITLE HAS THE TITLE OF THE MOVIE IN IT!

When simple reality is so damaging to a party's prospects that it must be systematically blurred in an organized effort, things aren't as rosy as they seem.
