Terry Moran's talking points about "peddling" are showing up in the NYT.


No surprise there. [spit]

[Dr.Hilarious]

If these dopes honestly believe that of ALL the people Rove could have demolished in the past 5 years he picked Wilson--and that Wilson had no idea that his wife would be brought into the story after he went to three media outlets in a couple days AND wrote a subsequent book--then they are not evil, they're just stupid.

Now it's clear why the NYT let Miller go to jail...So they can print crap like this.

[okie01]

Desperate, aren't they?

You can almost smell the cold sweat...

" Mr. Cooper's e-mail note does not say that Mr. Rove mentioned the name of Mr. Wilson's wife,"

Karl Rove apparently used ESP and tin foil hats to communicate the name of Valerie Plame to the media.
He's even more powerful than we thought.

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

This makes no sense. If they want the truth to come out, have Judy Miller testify.

[DoughtyOne]

To understand why Mr. Rove thought that was a black mark, remember that the White House considers dissenters enemies and that the C.I.A. had...

Just because some of the disenters are the enemy, doesn't mean that the White House thinks 'all' disenters are the enemy.

That being said, is it reality check time for the NYT or what? Is it the NYT's implication that the Clintion White House by contrast, didn't think disenters were the enemy? It's quite comical to watch the NYT's spin. They are VERY bad at it.

It doesnt matter what reporter says what!
It doesnt matter what we think here!
It doesnt matter what the Dummies think!

All that matters is the truth!

ALL that matters is special prosecutor Patrick J. Fitzgerald's report!

We can on and on all we like!

When he has finished then we will see what happens!!!

Unlike the Dummies, I am happy to say now, I hope the person who Outed her goes to Jail!

Will they say that if it is a Liberal???

There is no indication that it is Rove!

Just wait and see!

[Just mythoughts]

Ah, so finally the real sore is exposed, Karl Rove dissed the world renowned Joe Wilson.

I bet after seeing us, George Washington would sue us for calling him "father." - Will Rodgers

[Paraclete]

As Rove sets up the ultimate political play -- the MSM gets sucked in again! They'll never learn :)

[jammer]

But it is something else entirely when officials peddle disinformation for propaganda purposes or to harm a political adversary.

Like Deep Throat? Sheesh, how low into hypocrisy can they sink? (and, that's the opinion of someone --me--who thinks that if it were Rove, he should probably go).

[nhoward14]

Hey, NY Times, why is Judith Miller still in jail?

Before this thing is done, I'll bet NYT will need a glacier to put some ice on it.

[leprechaun9]

If you ever injected truth into politics you have no politics. - Will Rodgers

[woofie]

I cant bring myself to read the rest

[SolidSupplySide]

While we like government officials who are willing to whisper vital information, we like even more government officials who tell the truth in public.

If that is the case, then the NY Times should like Karl Rove and hate Joe Wilson.

[Lancey Howard]

Plame's last "cover" was as a State Department employee and the State Department is well known as a nest of appeasing, globalist, Euro-socialist, Bush-hating Democrats. It was from this position at State that Plame got sneaky and managed to get her husband sent on an unauthorized trip to Niger so that he could fabricate a bogus "report" to try to damage Bush. Plame, likely employing seductress tactics learned during her long tenure at the CIA, used the simpleminded, love-struck Wilson as her chump. (By the way, I wonder how many secrets Plame was able to suck out of foreign agents.... But I digress.)

VALERIE PLAME, of all people, HAS BEEN GIVEN A COMPLETE PASS in all of this, and I don't know why. It is my contention that Valerie Plame is the ultimate scumbag in this whole disgraceful fiasco. It will be interesting to find out who her handlers are.

[fhayek]

If the Times knows that Rove was not the leak, yet allows him to twist in the wind like this, then they are beneath contempt. They have forfeited any reputation of journalistic integrity (if they indeed had any remaining.

The story is a simple one (to me at least), Rove was communicating to Cooper that Wilson was not, shall we say, as pure as source as the Slimes and Slime magazine would want everyone to believe. If you are going to run with a story, tell the whole story, including the integrity of the sources involved. As usual, the mainstream media missed the point.
