5. PJJ's Played Her Before

I saw Penny Johnson Jerald at Far Point in Baltimore this past year. She's a lovely lady, and her husband is a great musician, too. Penny said that she's played Condi Rice twice, in this movie and the other one about 9/11 for CBS. When she was filming one of them, some Senator thought she was the real thing and got his picture taken with her.

Even though she's a Christian, Penny and her husband are the real deal, and their church helped out some Katrina evacuees in LA. She didn't take a stand on politics, but she did let it slip that she "disagrees with Ms. Rice's stand on some issues." Really a class act.

And, if you don't think she can play someone that's totally eeeeevil, I suggest that you go rent the first and second seasons of "24". :D

3. think they'll actually address ms. bodine's refusal to allow o'neill's..

team back into Yemen? Awhile back I begin wondering whether the USS Cole incident wasn't MIHOP. Kind of a setup to 911.

4. I don't know how they could avoid it at this point

I don't recall (just don't remember) if Bodine blocking O'Neill getting back into Yemen was covered in the 9/11 report but since O'Neill is the lead character .... :shrug:
