Hey Joe, it was US not the President. I guess you missed President Bush's comments when he said that she had a right to protest.

Joe, you and Sin-dy, and Richard Clarke are all liars. Can't wait until Richard Clarke is tied to the Able Danger situation....he, Gorelick, and Berger...frog march them all to jail, including you.

No, Joe, it's telling the truth you can't stand. Is it a smear to say that Richard Clarke wasn't being honest about Clinton leaving plans to Bush on fighting terrorism? As we find out now, that was only the tip of the iceberg. Clarke, with the rest of the Clinton administration, was asleep at the switch.

Cindy is lying about the war, about her son, about the president and about her own prior statements. If telling the truth about her is a "smear", she should try being honest.

It's pretty obvious that Wilson has been dumped by the party and is working the private circuit to keep himself alive in case the Dems get the Whitehouse back.

Maybe Valerie can get him a job at the CIA if that happens.

How about addingIN AFRICA to the Wilson is an International Business Consultant reference.

Wilson is a pathological liar -- the WH has said nothing against Cindy Sheehan, and people in talk radio, O'Reilly etc. can speak out on their own as is the right of all Americans. Wilson continues to muddy the waters with his own egregious lies and distortions.

btw, Joe Wilson, have you noticed yet that when "Mother Sheehan" spoke so viciously against America on behalf of the terrorist-accomplice Lynne Stewart, she was acting as part of the 5th column working on behalf of people who are now linked to BOTH WTC attacks??? Your house of cards is about to collapse, for the "blind Sheik" that Lynne Stewart loves so well is linked to both WTC93 and now to MOHAMMED ATTA of 9/11 INFAMY:

hmmmmmm, indeed.

Looks like he needs a little more attention. Other matters have taken the limelight away from him.

He has no idea how ridiculous he has made his own reputation.

This White House never wants an open public discussion, and it certainly never wants to be told that it is wrong. It always tries to change the message by attacking the messenger.

Hey Joe .. are ya feeling left out again???

OK .. you want a discussion ??

Do you agree with Cindy, that this Country of ours is not worth fighting for ???

Are you an anti semite like Cindy and think it's all the Jews fault ??

Are ya gonna help Code Pink to raise funds to send to the terrorists in Iraq so they can kill more of our soldiers???

You want to talk, Joe??? .... BRING IT ON!

I'm sick of these self-important has-beens. Other 'things' must be heating up because Lanny Davis was on the tube this morning. Expect to see Ann Lewis anytime now.

Yes, far be it from the real smear machine of the left to cite an actual case of where Bush has smeared someone...

It's the prequel to the Roberts hearing...I suspect the left hopes it will deflect attention from Able Danger

If you are thinking of a no nonsense hardnosed prosecutor / US Attorney... I think the name you are looking for is Patrick Fitzgerald... Patrick has among other things indicted the former governor (George Ryan) of Illinois... previously prosecuted a drug cartel and a crime family/syndicate from the east coast prior to appointment as Illinois' US Attorney... Peter Fitzgerald (Illinois' former US Senator) recommended Patrick Fitzgerald for US Attorney in the Northern District of Illinois (to President Bush)...

FYI Peter and Patrick Fitzgerald are not related to each other...

Ours is a government of the people, by the people and for the people; and the people in the name of Cindy Sheehan are right in demanding accountability for the tragedy foisted upon our great nation by this administration. To smear her rather than hear her is un-American and undemocratic.

This should read, "The people in the name of citizens of the United States of America should demand accountability for the tragedy foisted upon our great nation by the lies of Joseph C. Wilson IV and others who have sought to bring down an administration without rightful cause, and have done irreparable harm to our nation." I think the only good thing to come out of the 9/11 Commission Hearings was that Richard Clark was exposed as a liar, and you haven't seen or heard from him since. Paul O'Neill was trying to back away from some of his 'sour grape' comments before his book was published, and Sheehan and Wilson have thoroughly disgraced themselves with their own words and behavior.

Libbies can dish it out, but they sure can't take it. He did hear her, Lyin' Joe. He already met with her, and he has subsequently said she has the right to protest, but he doesn't agree with her views. Furthermore, Axis of Evil Cindy smears herself. All anyone is doing is amplifying her own idiotic, moonbat ravings and far left associations.

Case closed, cretin.

Concur...even though it is all about national security, which in a perfect world shouldn't be a partisan issue, we all know Able Danger is viewed through a political lens. I suspect the GOP leadershiop knows it also, and it carefully choreographing it..

Seems those with integrity are the ones that make the most sense here is another letter for example. Of course Joe wouldn't have a clue about integrity.

A Letter to Cindy
I received this letter in the mail this week. I am so pleased I was granted permission to post it:

An open letter to Cindy Sheehan from NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author Stephen Mansfield (THE FAITH OF GEORGE W. BUSH and THE FAITH OF THE AMERICAN SOLDIER)

Dear Mrs. Sheehan,

You are in a firestorm of grief and what must be a disorienting swirl of world attention. For that reason, I will be as brief in my remarks as I hope to be compassionate.

I will not insult you by presuming to know your sorrow. The loss of a son in armed conflict abroad must be among the most soul-wrenching experiences possible. You are surely right to rage against the horrors of war, right to demand answers and right to reach for those of like mind.

I fear, though, that what began as a mourning mother's righteous cry for meaning is becoming something that threatens to dishonor Casey's heroism. Though I mean no disrespect, it is clear you are becoming swept up in a cynical drama that is far afield from the meaning of the war and your son's sacrifice. From your daily blogging on Michael Moore's web site to the pronouncements you feel obligated to make on Israel's pullout from the Gaza Strip, you risk abandoning the moral high ground of a grieving mother and are in danger of becoming just another fleeting voice on the American pop culture landscape.

The central issue here is not whether George W. Bush meets with you for a second time or whether your self-styled "peaceful occupation" of Crawford, Texas ever wins the explanations you seek. The central issue is that when your son volunteered for military service, he placed himself upon an altar of sacrifice. Sadly, the ultimate sacrifice was indeed required. Yet he gave himself willingly, as all our soldiers do in this generation, and his death is therefore the noble death of a hero and not the needlessly tragic death of one accidentally or foolishly taken

What we must understand is that a pledge to military service is a surrender of rights, a surrender of comforts and, potentially, a surrender of life if the nation calls. What leaves us so stunned at the death of a soldier, beyond our grief for a life snuffed out and our personal loss, is often our failure to understand the noble calling of the profession of arms and the warrior code that gives this calling meaning. When your son, and the thousands like him serving today, pledged himself to military service, he did not just "join the army." He offered himself to his God and his nation in an act of devotion that has been repeated for centuries. He entered the fellowship of those who offer their lives willingly in service to others. His death, though a horror, was a horror with meaning, willingly engaged.

I cannot know your sorrow. I can urge you, though, not to taint your son's offering on what Lincoln called "the altar of freedom" by tethering it to the passing parade of trendy causes. I can also urge you to live now in the knowledge that your son's passing ennobles our nation, just as I trust it will now ennoble you.

With deepest sympathies for your loss,

Stephen Mansfield

"The Bush White House and its right wing allies are responding to Cindy Sheehan and the military families’ vigil in Central Texas in the same way that they always respond to bad news –by unleashing personal attacks and smears against her."

Mr. Wilson, identify one - just one - "smear" that the White House has launched against Sheehan. If you can't, YOU are a liar.
