This ought to be required reading, and listening while reading, to all our voters and high-school students.
Mrs. Plame hadn't been out as an NOC since 1997, when she returned from her last assignment, married Mr. Wilson and had twins.
(That was in) USA Today reported (on July 14th). The distinction matters because a law that forbids disclosing the name of undercover CIA operatives applies to agents that had been on overseas assignment 'within the last five years.'
Couldv their reason for being in the neighborhood be the fact that the Wilsom's lawyer (Christopher Wolf) is also their next-door neighbor?
The media had a lot of egg on its face by the time it was over last night. Gee, wonder who threw that egg at them? I bet his initials are "K" "R".
There will be no indictments because there was no crime committed.
indict the media, they commit crimes on a daily basis.

When this whole thing first broke, I thought I read somewhere (here maybe) that Joe Wilson's bio in Who's Who listed his wife as Valerie Plame. Anyone else remember that?
I can't believe he lived by the Wilson's as long as he did and socialized with them, and did not know what she did! He should be called in to testify under oath and given a lie detector test.
Funny...I don't see a campaign contribution from "Valerie Plame" to Gore in 1999. I see
WILSON, VALERIE E MS;WASHINGTON,DC 20007
BREWSTER-JENNINGS & ASSOC.
$1,000 to Gore on 4/22/1999
and
WILSON, VALERIE E; WASHINGTON,DC 20007
N/A/RETIRED
$372 to America Coming Together on 10/11/2004
I wonder where Rush is getting his info.
Scroll down the page a bit. Looks like Joe outted her quite awhile ago.
I haven't listened to the audio yet cause I just ate dinner.
"I wonder where Rush is getting his info."
Yeah he's off of this one. Could be however, a good reporter or someone outside gov't, could see both the Plame and Wilson name show up in association with Joe, do some research and make a connection.
Hey Joe...Everybody's got somethin to hide
'cept for you, and your monkey, eh?
Well, maybe your monkey....You old rogue, you!
>B-)
Wolf is their lawyer. He's not going to say anything that would jeopardize their civil suit against the government.
And to add more to the topic...

Listen to Rush Conduct Broadccast Excellence
BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
From the Associated Press:
CALLER: Thank you for having me, Rush.
RUSH: You bet.
CALLER: Um, so, yeah. Essentially I'm just kind of baffled by your, uh, Santa analogy and Christmas morning analogy. Ummm... I just don't understand.
Are you trying to trivialize the fact that, uh, he's trying -- Fitzgerald is trying -- to make sure he has his facts in line before he, uh, actually, you know, goes about doing his indictments?
Because, uh, you know, it seems to me that the administration could take something from this and, you know, make sure that they have all their facts straight before they go into sumthin'.
RUSH: You know,
I sit here in stunned amazement
at how some of you hear what is said articulately and clearly on this program.
CALLER: Well, I mean, uh, not to belittle you, Rush,
but I don't take all my news from your program.
RUSH: Well, but you're obviously responding to something you heard on the program just now,
and you heard something I didn't say.
CALLER: Well, no.
RUSH: You actually --
CALLER: You said that the media was waiting for this like it was Christmas morning and that --
RUSH: Damn right, they are! There's no question.
You can't deny that. So are you.
CALLER: No, I mean, I'm not going to deny that, but, I mean,
for one thing I don't understand why they picked, uh, Fitzgerald in the first place.
Wouldn't have Ashcroft have been a better selection?
I mean, he was initially tapped to do this, wasn't he?
RUSH: Well, let's stay focused here,
because Fitzgerald is the choice,
and why they didn't choose somebody else is moot now.
So the point is you think
-- are you not happy with Fitzgerald? When did that happen?
CALLER: No, I'm not unhappy with Fitzgerald at all.
RUSH: Why?
CALLER: I want to make sure that he has his facts in order.
Because Libby set out in early 2003 to smear Joseph Wilson, the CIA agent [sic] Valerie Plame's husband.
It was a smear campaign, and,
you know, he was told to back off in 2004.
RUSH: So what? They're entitled to "smear" Joseph Wilson.
Is Joseph Wilson Jesus Christ?
CALLER: Is Joseph Wilson Jesus Christ?
RUSH: Is Joseph Wilson infallible? Is he the Pope? Is Joseph Wilson God?
CALLER: (laughing)
RUSH: Joseph Wilson is a liar.
He's a liar, Bill.
The people you're willing to throw in with here have me stupefied.
CALLER: Hold on, hold on, hold on. You're equating --
alright, so first it was the Santa Claus analogy
and now Joseph Wilson is Jesus Christ?
RUSH: What?
But...
This is a political dispute. You "smear" your enemies.
"Smear" in this case meaning they disagree with him.
He's out there lying about them!
CALLER: No, no, no --
RUSH: The smear here is Joseph Wilson.
Joseph Wilson is conducting the smear.
He and his wife started this thing as a smear!
But, look,
what I just said about Christmas morning: the media has been salivating.
You admitted it.
You're looking at it as Christmas morning, too.
All I said was (sobbing),
Read the Article...
(AP: Grand Jury in CIA Leak Case Adjourns)
(Washingotn Times: Rove fight escalates - 07.15.05)
(Washington Post: It Wasn't Just Miller's Story - Robert Kagan)
(Washington Post: Husband Is Conspicuous in Leak Case)
Thanks again, Truth Detector.
What would we do ... without you?
She used the name of the fake CIA company in that donation
heard it live and purposfully 'got lost' to keep driving so as to hear the end of the bit.
