Life imitates art?
Kevin Drum notices:
The current season of 24 revolves around a president of the United States who aids and abets a terrorist plot so that it will scare the hell out of everyone and provide him with an excuse to launch massive retaliatory actions. (As if the previous four seasons haven't done that job already.)
In Mission Impossible 3, the story revolves around a high-ranking intelligence officer who aids and abets a terrorist plot so that it will scare the hell out of everyone and provide him with an excuse to launch ever bigger and badder counterattacks.

Hmm...it appears that a few film makers have been watching Michael Moore's documentary. Too bad it took so many years for people to find their gumption.

Those ideas have been out there since shortly after 9-11, but I do think it took a shift in the perception of the administration to bring them out.
