Lying Joe is Cindy Sheehan in a suit.
Wolf asked some pretty good questions.
Wilson admits that he was Kristof's source for the first column mentioning that " a former ambassador " went to Niger.
He claims he had to do it to correct all the lies from the White House .
Wolf points out that the Kristof column appeared 2 months before Novak's column.
Wolf says that many people say that by going public with his trip to Niger- Wilson himself set the wheels in motion for exposing his wife.
Wilson goes off into Sheehanland-defensive and irrational.
Wilson will not comment on his good friend Larry Johnson's claim that " Val P! " has been threatened by Al Queda.
Wilson defends the Vanity Fair cover and layout. It was his idea of a joke. It was all done in good fun.
And nobody could possibly figure out what Val P ! looked like from the photos.
" The photograph of her did not identify her in any way anybody could identify."
Ah- she wasn't wearing a mask, Joe- just sunglasses.
You can't make this stuff up :
WILSON :So let me just get this very clear: When one is faced with adversity, one of the ways one acts in the face of adversity is to try and bring a certain amount of humor to the situation.
It's called irony.
And if people have no sense of humor or no sense of perspective on that, my response is: It's about time to get a life.
But in no way did that picture endanger anybody. What endangered people was the outing of her name -- her maiden name -- and, subsequently, the outing of the corporation that she worked for."
Lying Joe calls Joe DiGenova a liar and says he hopes to someday be in The International Spy Museum. Seriously.
Yeah, as if Al Qaeda would threaten Val P. when she's been one of their most effective propagandists working to bring down the US government..... if Bin Laden and Al Zawahiri are getting any news at all about US internal politics they are loving the Wilsons for serving the cause of Islamo-fascism so well. If they did issue any threat(s) against her it would only be for the duplicitous purpose of boosting her bona fides (the way spy moles have sometimes created an artificial threat to themselve to appear more legitimate), i.e., making her seem like more of a real American rather than a seditious rogue CIA charlatan working to undermine the elected government of the USA.
What a maroon! Exactly those data both he and she had helped to publish way before Novak ever wrote his article.
Read this at Seamole's log:
"From his on-line biography at the Saudi-linked Middle East Institute: He is married to the former Valerie Plame and has two sons and two daughters."
Also, "Certainly, Valerie Plame-Wilson appears to have had no problem linking not only her surname to his but also to his e-mail address.
"All of which makes me truly wonder, what was this woman doing with a security clearance?"
Valerie Wilson also donated money to public campaigns and noted as place of employment exactly that corporation that Wilson was worried that it shouldn't be linked to her.
The man's a total fool!
