The whole Rat party is one giant deer in the headlights, sweats.

btw, GOOD to see you............where have you been keeping yourself??

[Swanks]

MSM and the Rats never learn. Actaully I'll make the case they've been burned twice (o.k. in mid-burn, 2nd time) on the Plame game. Recall when the intial Novak piece same out, Bush / Ashcroft THEMSELVES started the prosecutor down this road just to keep the jackels at bay.

While that work isn't complete, 1) a Rat / Media type WILL be found to be the source. Why else would Ms. Miller subject herself to jail; FOR KARL ROVE? and 2) both, will look like fools, trying to hang this on Rove.

How about a reprise with Sure Connningly in You Only LIE Twice? ROFLMAO

[WestTexasWend]

Is there a Cone of Silence big enough for all these freaks?

The CIA did a referral for some reason. And Fitzgerald has taken two years with it for some reason. It would be odd if all that could've been avoided with a curt conclusion that she didn't fall within the statute.

It can easily take two years to try to figure out who said what to whom when everyone says they heard it from somebody else and nobody points to an ultimate source. That's what I think has gone on here. Everybody in Washington knew about Val and Joe, but nobody can remember exactly who told them and when, it was just cocktail party chatter for months. And it isn't necessary to prove Plame was covert, it is necessary to prove that anyone who leaked her name to the media THOUGHT she was covert and thought they were blowing her cover and did it anyway.

Wilson and Valerie were Kerry supporters and contributers.

[Steven W.]

Blitzer also neglected to include any mention of Senate Select Committee on Intelligence report or Lord Butler report that skewered Wilson for LYING about everything.

[nopardons]

LOL

"Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain! I am Oz, the great and powerful!"

[AliVeritas]

Hope so...I'm starting to run out of tinfoil.

[swheats]

LOL and my senator's leading the parade.

I dusted off my superwoman cape and went back to work. I actually like it too.

[Darkwolf377]

Yup. But I guess lying about pre-war intel wasn't "scandalous" enough for Wolf.

[bjc]

Well parsed! Basically I had the same thoughts but you said it far better. In addition I would add that any spouse of any ambassador should be assumed to be a spook - especially if the ambassador is a career diplomat. Valerie Plame's career as a spy was done the day she became Mrs Wilson!

[EGPWS]

Wilson and Valerie were Kerry supporters and contributers.

Shocking!

I'm sure that when the Rove balloon pops that they will get right on that in the MSM!

LoL!

[Lunkhead_01]

To assume Valerie Plame lost her ability to become a covert CIA agent assumes she had the ability to be a covert CIA agent ... which seems highly unlikely because of the high profile she kept over the years.

[lugsoul]

I agree that the exchange was disjointed, but I was focusing on the 'clarified' statement - I put that in quotes because I kind of thought that was what he was saying yesterday. Wolf is asking him to respond to various allegations of 'wrongdoing' - trying to make book money, etc., and specifically mentions the 'photo shoot' with his 'clandestine officer' wife. In response, Wilson says she wasn't a 'clandestine officer' on the day Novak published. IF he is responding to the question, it reads to me like he is saying, "There was nothing wrong with doing that photo shoot because my wife wasn't clandestine - she'd already been outed by Novak." Then, when Wolf asks the follow-up, he declined to answer.

Now, clearly there was a point in the day - after the Trib hit the street? - when Plame was no longer clandestine. Her name was in the paper as a CIA 'operative'. The question that didn't get asked is whether she was clandestine on that day BEFORE Novak's column hit the street.

Of course, given web publishing, the column was probably available the night before or early that morning. ;-)

So, IF he was saying what is being construed here, i.e. "My wife was NO LONGER covert when Novak wrote his column," then he was not responding even a little bit to the question that was asked - you see my point? If he was saying, "She was covert any more because Novak published," he is responding, somewhat, to the question.

[mware]

I have been listening to John Gibson.

LOL, he mentioned that the Dem's are upset with him for saying that Rove should get a metal.

A letter went out saying everyone should avoid appearing on his show.

He had a debate with Hutchinson and said to her, "I'll play the Democrat."

[EGPWS]

I'm starting to run out of tinfoil.

Swell, fodder for the lib's to show a shortage of tin too. /s

[ohioWfan]

Well, good for you! You ARE missed though........

(But we don't pay you anything here, so you probably made a good choice. ;)

WASHINGTON The husband of the C-I-A agent whose cover was blown is clearing up some confusion over a comment he made to C-N-N

She never had her "cover blown" that the general public knows.
