> So maybe the NYTimes sent him.

If so, that might connect with the Seymour Hersh question I raise above, as well as Jayson Blair. When Hersh was at the "Times" he cultivated a lot of contacts in the CIA, one of which, Bill Colby, played a role in dismantling the Counterintelligence department by removing James Angleton. Colby was part of a faction in the CIA that wanted to move the Agency away from Angelton's anti-Communist emphasis towards a more "liberal" approach in keeping with the new detente policy and the post-60s spirit of "diversity". To accomplish this he would leak info to Hersh about sensitive CIA operations, then use the resulting controversy as a pretext to replace Angleton's staff with his own personnel. (There's some info on this in Mark Riebling, "Wedge", Chapter 16.) As I'm working through this I'm starting to suspect some of Hersh's allies at the NYT are using Plame and Wilson for similar purposes.

You have some interesting points.

Coulter's writings about McCarthy are like getting a hint of sunlight about those who hated him, a similar passion seen today with these that hate President Bush.

We know their roots are long and deep. The Clinton administration's greatest fans were in the press, and focused far more time on his "private" being kept "private" and their favorite word was compartmentalize.

The Clinton administration spent its time cultivating those deep roots of the leftist ideology. Their sleepers walk, talk and act like normal people, all the while they toil away at dismantling the Consitiution and those three branches of government.

Their co-equals in that 4th branch of government reproduce the pictures and words to give them cover. They are always doing what they accuse others of doing. Leaks, lies, conspiracies, AWOL, deserters, etc... They are so experienced and trained in their profession they can look you straight in the eye and deny.

One falls like the "TORCH" and falls right back in line, out of sight, and unaccountable and continues to work for their fight. There seem to be only one sin that is unacceptable -standing up to them.

They are like grasshoppers eating everything alive leaving nothing in their wake, in their forward march.

Their major focus in the next few months is to destroy President Bush's credibility. I do believe there is nothing they won't attempt, to attain their goal.

The mass middle is who they are after and day after day, night after night, hearing the media whores talk about investigation after investigation helps to chip away at credibility.

Let me know if you find anymore interesting tid bits about the "Wilson's affair".
