Just curious....whatever happened to Bill Press? He's been missing from MSNBC (and the planet), for a long time. I only thought of him today because I remember how "Buchanan & Press salivated over Joe Wilson, hook, line, and spinner! How they had this former CIA agent Larry Johnson on to tell us how Valerie Plame's career had been ruined by Scooter Livvy.

And lordyloo...where oh where is Dennis Kucinich?? I was googling today, ended up on something called Wonkette ?...and found the tidbit that Shirley McClaine was godmother to his offspring. Who knew he had any?

Valerie Plame still works for the CIA, doesn't she?

I was so glad Rush finally got around to Joe Wilson today, and I liked his take on it: That the source of the Wilson leak was someone in the CIA who knew Wilson was lying when he said his wife didn't recommend him for the Niger job. Tenet maybe?

What?! Who knew indeed. LOL (Did I tell you how my husband's brother showed up at Christmas wearing a Kucinich t-shirt? Yes, he did. With a pin with a picture of Kucinich!! LOL).

I have no idea where Bill Press is. None of the media that touted Wilson have said "My God! I was snookered!". Jerks.

It wasn't Tenet, as in Tenet was not working against GWB. Tenet immediately, after Wilson's op-ed, pointed out Wilson's trip was worthless, that he'd been sent by a sub-group on their own volition, that he hadn't mentioned any documents at all--forged or otherwise, AND he mentioned the earlier Wilson trip where he did think Iraq was seeking uranium from Niger. Tenet could have been a source, I concede, to a journalist explaining that Wilson was sent at his wife's recommendation, but I'm willing to bet if so, the president and the investigators know this and no public comments are being made due to the ongoing investigation, which I pray is into the Wilsons and whether they committed crimes here.

I liked Rush saying today that Kerry should be asked what he knows about this plot to spread disinformation and when did he know it. Just liked having it put out there.

The "leak" was never about "getting" Wilson. It has always been that it was offered by way of explanation of the otherwise inexplicable question of "Why in the world was Joe Wilson of all people chosen for this mission?".

Why, indeed.

As to Plame still being at the CIA--yes, and that gives me hope that my theory is right. There will be a huge hue and cry if anything ever happens to her--fired and/or indicted and the firing will not happen until the authorities have their ducks in a row. You see what I'm saying?
