More Wilson Meltdown (Lying Larry Johnson from VIPS sounding worried)

The American Spectator ^ | 11/11/2005 | Jed Babbin

[frankjr]

I post this because of Petey Yost's laughable AP article today about the Plame case and mentioning the letter from Larry Johnson and his VIPS crew to the President. Yost does not give the background on VIPS and their and the CIA's bogus war on the Bush Admin.

There are liberals all through the government in Washington. I work with them everyday.

[Alia]

Inside the CIA? The rogue part? The part which wants an easy, cushy job in order to demand even more funds by showing "how on top of things they are"? You mean.. that segment of the CIA which possibly has access to WHERE military "prisons" are in the world? My, oh my.

[Fenris6]

CIA needsd to be hauled before a Grand Jury. There job is to gather intell and brief POTUS, not sabatouge policies they disagree with.

[Peach]

Johnson, in my interview with him, confirmed some things, left some open, but revealed something startling: the defense of Joe Wilson is apparently being run from inside the CIA.

[Rummyfan]

Vallely, you may recall, said last week on John Batchelor's ABC radio show that Wilson -- husband of CIA employee Valerie Plame -- had told Vallely (a year before Robert Novak outed Plame) that Plame was a CIA employee.

Highlight of the radio week past was Jed Babbin stating that Joe Wilson is a CLOWN!

The irony is that tinfoil hat wearing leftists have always feared an "out of control" CIA subverting our elected Government. Now that it appears to have happened and Democrats support this subversion because they haven't been able to win elections.

Pete Yost is a socialist working to bring down the government! Former Editor of San Jose Mercury News.

Well, duh. They oughta rename it CYA. Good to see the desperation though, they are apparently running scared. The author oughta watch his back though, Johnson has been known to threaten people with bodily harm, he threatened a Freeper. I too recieved a sort of veiled threat via Freepmail after I started posting my suspicions about Vincent Cannistraro, but I am not sure who it was. All they sent was this quote from 1984:

"One of these days, thought Winston with sudden deep conviction, Syme will be vaporized. He is too intelligent. He sees too clearly and speaks too plainly. The Party does not like such people. One day he will disappear. It is written in his face."

His account has since been banned or suspended, not sure why.

WHICH HAPPENS TO BE A VIOLATION OF FEDERAL LAW.

Maybe Fitzgerald has bigger fish to fry ,but prefers minnows.

[McGavin999]

Fitzgerald has turned out to be a clown. His career is over, he failed and failed miserably. His masters don't take well to public failure, he's going to spend the rest of his life in some small job, prosecuting small cases, being passed over time after time after time.

[genefromjersey]

Interesting ! There has always been talk of "an Israeli cabal" inside the administration-(and there might have been-along with a Pro-French cabal, etc. etc.)-but LONG before such matterings came to light, there was talk of an "Arabist cabal" in the State Department,and the CIA.

I think you are on the right track.I also think a small cabal at the top of the CIA built a "bridge to nowehere" with their carefully manicured intelligence reports.

For example material expressing doubt about the reliability of certain sources was often scissored out of the reports the WH received. Powell was one of the victims of this ploy.

After things started going bad, the UNCENSORED reports were made available to willing journalists, with a disingenuous "they should have seen this" commentary.

[standingfirm]

Porter Goss is doing some long overdue housecleaning. Amazing the filth you detect when the bed and dresser are moved.

It's just all coming to the surface and it seems like it will take some time to clean it out.

[OldFriend]

Fitz-hack lost the game when he chose to do a self aggrandizing press conference.

His bloviating has done him in!!!

[OldFriend]

There are two groups of people who need to be scrubbed frm the CIA and the State Department.

First, the Arabists.

Second, those who believe that Mother Russia is preferable to America.

[popdonnelly]

I like the way these CIA types operate. They can leak what they feel like leaking, but otherwise hide behind Agency secrecy. They're rigging the game.

Larry Johnson is not a journalist. It seems to me he can be compelled to reveal who his sources are.

[popdonnelly]

That's a strange message you got, Raving. I would urge any Freeper who is threatened to bring it to the attention of both their fellow Freepers and the authorities.

That might leave a few of the cleaning crew and maybe some of the cafeteria workers with their jobs intact.

This happened when I first started posting about Cannistraro. I was going to taunt the "spook" and invite him over for Halloween so I could show him a trick or two, but hubby told me I had better leave it alone. I ain't skeered, LOL!
