Attention Air America Radio Listener,

Help our hosts show the great outrage among Air America listeners by signing right now.

Air America Radio needs your help to get a traitor out of the White House. For two years, we've known that someone in the White House undermined America by maliciously leaking the identity of CIA covert operative Valerie Plame to punish her husband for criticizing the Bush Administration. And now what many suspected has finally been revealed: the leaker is President Bush's closest advisor, the man they call "Bush's Brain" – none other than Karl Rove.
A growing chorus of voices is calling on President Bush to fire Karl Rove – including Air America Radio hosts and listeners. The White House will try to say that Americans don't care about this. They'll try to pass it off as an "inside the Beltway" issue.
That's why today we're asking you to help our hosts by adding your name to our Air America Radio petition calling for Bush to fire Karl Rove. Please help us show that Air America Radio listeners are outraged about treason in the White House by signing right now:

George Bush has never been in such a "bad spot," as one reporter put it at Monday's White House press briefing. When this scandal first came up in 2003, the Bush White House said unambiguously: "If anyone in this Administration was involved in it, they would no longer be in this Administration.” (Scott McClellan, 9/29/03, White House press briefing)
The President must now make good on his word. By signing our petition, you'll be helping Air America Radio do its job as the country's leading progressive media outlet to bring pressure to bear on the Bush White House that won’t let up until Karl Rove has had his security clearance revoked and is barred from the White House.
Here are the facts about this case:
Valerie Plame was an undercover CIA operative who worked in the field of WMD counter-proliferation.
After her husband published an editorial in The New York Times critical of the Bush Administration, Valerie Plame's name and her CIA affiliation were leaked to a number of news sources.
Right-wing hack Bob Novak published a column outing Valerie Plame and effectively ending her career.
One of those who received the leak about Valerie Plame’s identity was Matt Cooper – his source: Karl Rove.
By exposing her identity, Rove destroyed a valuable asset in the war on terror. But even worse than that, he potentially exposed and endangered a network of intelligence assets throughout the world that Plame had built painstakingly over an entire career.
We will never know just how much damage Rove did, nor how many lives he ruined.
With 65 stations across the country, Air America is beginning to have the critical mass to make a real impact at crucial moments like these. Show that Air America Radio has become a political force to be reckoned with. Sign our petition and help Air America Radio send a message to the White House.
Thank you,
The Air America Radio Team

Yes this story "IS" dead but it's Friday and the Dims got nothing else to talk about.
Especially the economy that eludes Dem.
Terroriism in London doesn't help Dem either.
I figure by Monday this story will be DOA.
Believing their own lies.
Haywood Jablowme signed earlier today.
"By exposing her identity"
How crucial was she to the security of America that her ID had to remain secret? Wasn't she a desk worker at Langley? What possible harm to the USA was caused by knowing her ID?
This a mountain being made out of an "ant" hill.
Karl versus the army of MoveOn.org zombies:
I can't remember where I saw it, but there was a comment in some article that the Plame dame hadn't been "undercover" since 1997, and that the failure to reclassify her was a bureaucratic oversight -- one of many in an apparently completely incompetent agency.
After several hours Al Franken announces that Air America "has 50-60 people on the fire Karl Rove petition and expects that eventually they may have up to 75 people sign it!"
Let 'em catch up, they're 24-36 hours behind the 'news' at FR, PowerLine, Cap't Quarters, etc. I guess they son't even watch CNN, where Joe shot himself in the head yesterday.
these people are the most laughable bunch I have ever seen or heard in my life. All at air liberalia are slugs.
That's Air America reality. The truth is below:
Air America Radio needs your money to help us stay on the air with our lousy ratings. For two years, we've known someone in the MSM has tried to undermine the White House by creating a story about a leak of a Democratic operative who has been abusing her position in the CIA by sending her husband on a mission to undermine the United States.
Could minor Ambassador Joe Wilson himself have been the source in blowing his own Wife's cover?
It is distinctly possible, (though it may be unlikely that Joe Wilson himself directly was NY Times Judith Miller's source), since Joe Wilson himself evidently routinely bragged openly to strangers about her CIA employment, prior to such "cover" being "blown" in the press.
Here's an example of Joe's apparently routine and open bragging about Valerie being a "CIA agent," which became known directly to me over a year ago:
He certainly bragged about it per a famous and highly reliable source's (named below) account of his own face-to-face encounter with Amb. Joe Wilson prior to Valerie Plame's "outing" as a CIA agent/employee.
Based upon a personal conversation (we were in a small group eating; it was NOT an "off the record") I had with eminent historian Victor Davis Hanson (we were at a luncheon table together during a trip to Europe), it appeared entirely possible that Joe Wilson himself was the (or one source, if not the original one) possible source in revealing his own wife's status as a CIA agent or employee.
Victor Davis Hanson (Wilson presumably knew Victor Davis Hanson wrote regularly for NRO (National Review Online), had done OpEds for the Wall street Journal, and other publications, and had his own Website with a widespread following) said he (VDH) & Joe Wilson were both in the same "Green Room" before a televised debate-discussion on Iraq, etc. and Joe first warned the TV make-up person not to get powder on his $14,000 Rolex watch, then he bragged to Victor about several things (possessions and trips to Aspen, etc.), like his expensive car (I think it was a Mercedes), and then bragged about his beautiful wife who, Joe Wilson said (braggingly) was a CIA operative.
I asked Victor Davis Hanson Why he didn't write up this account.(?) He replied that Joe Wilson would probably simply deny it, since only he (VDH) & Joe Wilson were in the Green Room together before the broadcast.
However, it is now easy to surmise that Joe Wilson is a crass, materialistic, self-promoting, vain, egotistical, bragaddocio-opportunist, so this account is perfectly consistent with Valerie Plame's TWO photo shoots in Vanity Fair. (Or was it Vogue? No, probably too crass for Vogue, n'est pas?)
