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.

Joseph Wilson said yesterday that his wife, Valerie Plame, "was not a clandestine officer the day Bob Novak blew her identity."

Today, he says he was only pointing out that once her identity was blown, his wife lost her ability to be a covert agent. He says he wasn't suggesting that she had stopped working undercover for the C-I-A beforehand.

Wilson is continuing his attack on White House adviser Karl Rove, for discussing his wife with columnist Novak and Time magazine reporter Matthew Cooper. The discussion came just days after Wilson had written in The New York Times that some of the administration's intelligence on Iraq's nuclear weapons was twisted to exaggerate the threat.

Clarify is a liberal term for lie again.

Just how dumb is Wilson?

This "clarification" contains no actual quotes attributed to Wilson. These are the reporters words.

Isn't that strange when desiring to change the record?

"Does anyone know exactly WHEN she stopped being a "clandestine" agent?"

She turned in her shoe phone and decoder ring at approximately the same time.
The plastic handcuffs and X-ray sunlasses were turned in at a later time.

And the reply will be that it was consensual.

I think he means "potentially covert." Big difference.

[JustAnotherOkie]

When you lie as much as Wilson, clarification becomes a full time job.

And all I want is a shoe phone. :)

He's sure been doing some fancy footwork since some of the actual facts started coming out, hasn't he? (snicker)

Just how dumb is Wilson?

If he ever stops running his mouth or digging, we can make that final assessment.

[nuffsenuff]

I like how they say that there was "confusion" over his statement...

The only "confusion" was the Dems wondering how stupid he was to completely undermine their smear campaign.

LOLOLOL!

This clown Wiilson is lucky that somebody hasn't knocked his dick loose by now for his phoney scheme to try and bring down the president.

[solo gringo]

[queenkathy]
