The Untold Story - Joseph Wilson, Judith Miller and the CIA (MUST READ!!!!)
Accuracy in Media ^ | October 24, 2005 | Cliff Kincaid

Posted on 10/25/2005 11:14:12 AM PDT by LibFreeUSA

The savage left-wing attack on Judith Miller from inside and outside of the New York Times completely misses the point.... She could have done a potential Pulitzer Prize-winning story that could have broken the Joseph Wilson case wide open. It is a story exposing the Wilson mission to Africa as a CIA operation designed to undermine President Bush.

SNIP

In my recent special report on this matter, former prosecutor Joseph diGenova called the Wilson mission a CIA "covert operation" against Bush.....But if Miller had done such a story for the Times, the impact could have been enormous.

SNIP

By any account ("Valeri Plame"), she was hardly a James Bond-type. Plame's "cover," a company called "Brewster-Jennings & Associates," was so flimsy that she used it as her affiliation when she made a 1999 contribution to Al Gore for president. She identified herself as "Valerie Wilson" in this case. The same Federal Election Commission records showing her contribution to Gore also reveal a $372 contribution to America Coming Together, when the group was organizing to defeat Bush.

SNIP

If Miller had done some extra digging, she would have discovered that, contrary to what Wilson said publicly in the Times, his findings were interpreted by many officials as additional evidence of an Iraqi interest in obtaining uranium. This kind of story, if it had been published in the New York Times, could have completely undermined Wilson's credibility.

SNIP

The CIA had been behind the Wilson trip from the beginning... . The CIA did not want the full extent of its role uncovered ...This was one covert operation by the CIA on top of another. Miller watched the whole thing play out and refused to tell her own paper and the public what was really happening.

There's nothing 'tangled' about two Clinton/Gore cronies using the CIA as 'cover' for their sabotage of our foreign policy and national security.

Isn't Brewster-Jennings & Associates a CIA front company that also donated to the Gore campaign? Isn't it illegal for the government to set up fake companies to then fund political offices?

The CIA had been behind the Wilson trip from the beginning and, as Libby told Miller, had been trying to undercut the administration's Iraq policy and divert attention from the agency's poor performance on Iraqi WMD. The CIA did not want the full extent of its role uncovered and decided that the best way to divert attention from its own shabby performance was to accuse Bush officials of violating the law against identifying covert agents.

And we won't lose sight of the fact that Valerie Plame-Wilson was one of the CIA's WMD analysts.

She did not tell. . .too bad; almost makes her an accomplice. Or am I misreading something between snips. . .(could we do a 'second post with only the 'snips' in) ;^)

Do not know why Repubs did not tackle this 'right on' from the beginning or even the middle. . .

and as we approach the 'end' it all seems 'too late smart'. . .

We are determined it appears, to make the heinous and dangeroous 'Left', a winner. . .every time.

This is one BIG problem with BIG government. Too many rules. Too much temptation for corruption. Some, like Slick Willy, use the fact that there are so many rules to their advantage. Create so many scandals that people can't keep them straight. Then you have to cover-up lies with other lies.

"This kind of story, if it had been published..." What makes anyone think it would have been published by the Slimes, even if written?

She could yet do that, but I'm sure that it won't be under the NYT banner.

I don't think that the Old Grey Whore would have let her do it, The Times, instead, let her be locked up.

If some of Bush's aides now go down on dubious charges of having faulty or inconsistent memories about the case, they could try to blow the whistle on the CIA in court. The CIA would most likely try to censor the proceedings on grounds of "national security" and protecting agency "operations." For the sake of maintaining our democratic form of government and reigning in rogue elements at the CIA, the truth must come out.

This is why we're seeing the sudden rush to CYA in poopsheets such as the Wash Compost.

Kincaid is exactly correct. Why didn't Miller write the story she proposed? The NYT nixed it, obviously. Why? Because such a story might have slowed down the CIA plan to undermine Bush and anyone attempting to undermine Bush must be left free of the facts to do so.

I think if any administration officials are indicted, GWB should immediately pardon Joe Wilson. Let the MSM go nuts on why he did it. Then, several days (or even weeks) later, pardon the admin officials. Don't pardon Valerie Plame.

See my post #42 here. It was bigger than that. It was CIA/French coup.
