Cooper started this whole thing to set up Rove. His claim about an organized attack on Wilson by outing his wife is fantasy.
Sometimes I think Cooper is a big nutcase.....other times I think he's just journalism as usual.
How can you tell?????
this makes a humble or urgent plea to the question:
Who is next...?
They lost yet again, but they will be back. The rats are against the wall, and have no choice.
They always come back.
they didn't "go after" his wife. the fact that his wife was the person who got him involved in his little africa mission, and he then came back and lied to try and tear down the administration, makes her a legitimate part of the story.
No one in the administration had anything out for Wilson's wife. She and hubby flatter themselves by such thinking.
How do you interpret Novak's article?
Right after... I heard Woodward & Bernstein compare the MSM attacks on Rove to Watergate.
I almost drove my fist through the wall... AGAIN!
It's a little early in the morning to be mixing alcohol with pipedreams, isn't it?
No.
No.
No, again. :)
The media and the Democrats thought they smelled blood. They did, their own.
Plame was a part of this case. Novak's article was part of an investigation as to how Wilson, who was seemingly not qualified, got the Niger job. And then came back to smear the administration. The explanation for that was simple - his wife, a WMD analyst for the CIA, got him the job. Not Cheney, not Tenet; Plame.
When it all comes out in the wash, it will be clear that Wilson lied repeatedly, his wife helped him do that, he may have outed his own wife (see the David Corn article), and that no one in the Bush Administration committed any crime.
Some reporters may get indicted, but since the press coverage determines whether a situation is "another Watergate," we can be certain that crimes by the press will NEVER rise to that level.

Spin the White House staff wheel and see who's next. :)
The deceptive web they weave will entangle them in their own dark manipulations.
yes. if Plame didn't want to be part of this case, she should have simply done her job at Langley everyday and not put her 2 cents in to push sending her husband to Niger.
To be honest, its Plame who should be investigated here. And that may well be why Judith Miller is in jail.
