WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Bush should "come clean" about any White House officials involved in the leak of the name of undercover CIA operative Valerie Plame and "honor his pledge to fire all those involved," Sen. Barbara Mikulski of Maryland said Saturday in the Democrats' weekly radio address.
"It's been one week since the vice president's chief of staff was indicted, and there are still very serious questions about how his White House misused and manufactured intelligence to sell and defend the war in Iraq," Mikulski said.

This is same situation Democrats found themselves in when they allied themselves with the Dixie Chicks. It pained them terribly (Democrats and country music?) just like it does their "sticking up" for the CIA. But if it helps damage Bush, they'll bend over and grab both ankles.
Why don't the Freepers just all get together--
----pick out ONE article--like the one RUSH wrote or the Washiongton POST one were it is EXPLAINED that the CIA in the first place told NOVAK Plame was indeed a CIA "employee" BEFORE he wrote the origional article that started all this---
and get EVERYONE HERE TO ELECTIONICALLY sign it!! and then
---SEND IT to FITZGERALD and all the PAPERS and NEWS SHOWS and everyone with a note saying--
" Unless you cover THIS ARTICLE proven this is all POLITICAL and LIES in the first place!!: "WE" --and our families and friends will contact ALL your ADVERTISERS and tell them we will BOYCOTT your PRODUCTS and SERVICES--Stations and papers and shows!!!
And when your ADVERTISERS lose all their revenue and LEAVE YOU--and YOU lose YOUR revenue--you will wish you had covered the truth of this in the first place!!
Sounds Good??
